Conjectured the behaviour of a recycled metal matrix composite (MMC-AlR) developed through hot press forging by means of 3D FEM simulation

Melting aluminium waste to produce a secondary bulk material is such an energy-intensive recycling technique that it also indirectly threatens the environment. Hot press forging is introduced as an alternative. Mixing the waste with another substance is a proven practice that enhances the material i...
