Abstract

Thermal stress relaxation at the interfaces in magnesium matrix composites has been studied by mechanical spectroscopy. Two specimens were processed by a gas pressure infiltration method. In one sample, the metallic matrix was unidirectionally oriented with respect to the matrix‐reinforcement interface by a Bridgman technique, while the other was kept as infiltrated. The results show a strong dependence of the damping on the orientation of the matrix. The results are compared with a model of thermal stress relaxation by dislocation motion controlled by a solid friction mechanism. A fitting parameter proportional to the mobile dislocation density is obtained showing the entire evolution of the mobile dislocation density with respect to the temperature.

In metal matrix composites, thermal stresses are relaxed by either interface debonding, crack propagation or dislocation motion. The present paper shows that in the case of a magnesium matrix, interface thermal stresses are relaxed by dislocation motion in the basal plane (0 0 1) of the hexagonal st

Thermal stresses in metal matrix composites (MMC) can induce plastic deformation and damage accumulation in the region close to the reinforcements. In this connection, AH% Cu-based MMC reinforced with 10, 20 and 30% Al203 short fibres were characterized by internal friction (IF) measurements. As a
