Compressive and tensile deformation behaviour of TRIP steel-matrix composite materials with reinforcing additions of zirconia and/or aluminium titanate
Composite materials based on a TRIP-steel matrix with ceramic reinforcing particles. Novel MMCs with combinations of zirconia and aluminium titanate in MMCs. High interfacial bonding strength in composites variants with aluminium titanate. Improved mechanical characteristics under tensile and compressive deformation. Characteristics of MMCs suitable for future high load applications/crash absorber.
