Light Metal Alloys Applications by Waldemar Alfredo Monteiro Pdf

Lightweight alloys have become of great importance in engineering for construction of transportation equipment. At present, the metals that serve as the base of the principal light alloys are aluminum and magnesium. One of the most important lightweight alloys are the aluminum alloys in use for several applications (structural components wrought aluminum alloys, parts and plates). However, some casting parts that have low cost of production play important role in aircraft parts. Magnesium and its alloys are among the lightest of all metals and the sixth most abundant metal on earth. Magnesium is ductile and the most machinable of all metals. Many of these light weight alloys have appropriately high strength to warrant their use for structural purposes, and as a result of their use, the total weight of transportation equipment has been considerably decreased.

Light Alloys by I. J. Polmear Pdf

Thoroughly revised and updated, this third edition of lan Polmear’s Light Alloys provides the definitive overview of the metallurgy of aluminum, magnesium and titanium alloys. The emphasis remains on manufacturing processes and application areas, in which there have been significant advances in recent years. The extraction of each metal is considered briefly, followed by its casting characteristics and alloying behavior. Sections on heat treatment properties, fabrication and major applications have been expanded to give more comprehensive coverage of the subjects. Particular attention has been paid to microstructure/property relationships as well as to the role of the individual alloying elements, and new materials and novel processes are reviewed in an additional chapter. This succinct and informative introduction to the physical metallurgy of the light alloys will be essential reading for advanced undergraduates in metallurgy, materials science, manufacturing and mechanical engineering. It will also prove invaluable to metallu## gists and engineers in industry seeking to expand on their knowledge.

Metallic Amorphous Alloy Reinforcements in Light Metal Matrices by S. Jayalakshmi,M. Gupta Pdf

This book presents cutting-edge research on the design and development of novel, advanced high-strength, light-weight materials via the incorporation of novel reinforcements, namely, metallic amorphous alloys/bulk metallic glasses (BMG), in light metal matrix composites (LMMCs) based on Al and Mg. The book begins with an introduction to conventional ceramic reinforced light metal matrix composites, along with the major drawbacks which limit their application. Metallic amorphous alloys/Bulk Metallic Glasses (BMG) are new class of metallic materials that are distinctly differently from conventional metals/alloys in terms of their structure and thermal behavior, and exhibit extremely high strength (1 to 2 GPa) and large elastic strain limit (1 to 2%). Given these unique properties, upon their incorporation into Al/Mg-matrices, they provide superior interfacial properties, i.e. high degree of compatibility with the matrix due to their metallic nature when compared to conventional ceramic reinforcements, and thereby significantly enhance the mechanical performance of LMMCs. Amorphous/BMG reinforced LMMCs is an emerging research field and the existing literature is meager. This book discusses the various processing methods that would be suitable for these novel materials. A comparison of mechanical properties and strengthening mechanisms of amorphous/BMG reinforced composites with those of conventional ceramic composites is presented. Future research directions and wider research potential of the novel materials are discussed, and prospective applications are highlighted. For ease of understanding and comparison, appropriate schematics, tables, and figures are provided.
