摘要: Recent work by the authors has examined the high-strain-rate compression of a metal–matrix composite consisting of an A359 Al alloy matrix reinforced by 20 vol.% of silicon carbide particulates (SiCp). The work-hardening that is observed in the experiments is much lower than that predicted by analytical and computational models which assume perfect particle–matrix interfaces and undamaged particles. In this work, we show that the discrepancy is a result of particle damage that develops within the A359/SiCp composite …
