Özet
In the present study, functionally graded Al6061 composites reinforced with boron carbide (B4C), silicon carbide (SiC), and alumina (Al2O3) were prepared using the stir and centrifugal casting techniques. Arc-shaped functionally graded metal (FGM) specimens were treated with a hot-rolling process to enhance their mechanical properties and obtain laminated plates. Then, the impacts of ceramic reinforcements on the density, microhardness, tensile strength, and ballistic resistance of FGMs were studied. Moreover, the microstructural properties of the specimens were analyzed to elucidate the particle gradient from the inner to the outer surface. As a result, the microstructure observations revealed that the ceramic particles are dispersed from the inner to the outer periphery of the FGMs with centrifugal acceleration. A more homogeneous particle distribution was obtained in B4C-reinforced FGM compared to those of …
