Metal Matrix Composites: Recent Advancements
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metal-based composites provide a unique dimension in tailoring the properties of metals through the selection of type, size, and amount of reinforcement. The properties of metallic matrices, therefore, can be tailored depending on the end applications. In view of the dynamic capabilities that can be exhibited, this Topic will cover all aspects of “Metal Matrix Composites”, including synthesis (solid, liquid, 2-phase, and 3D printing), secondary processing, properties (tensile, compressive, fatigue, impact, creep, tribological, etc.), corrosion behavior, and joining techniques. The main objective, thus, will be to present the latest results in the area of metal matrix composites to the research community worldwide.
