Abstract

Within the framework of the common research project, the mechanical properties and fatigue behaviour of recycled thin sheet Ti-Al-based composites reinforced with atomized scrap aluminium (AA7075) and Nb elements have been evaluated. All the thin sheet sandwich structures were produced by the hot forging process, which is a semi-solid-forming process similar to partial melting hot forging. The effect of the chemical bonds during the production of these multifunctional sandwich composite structures was analysed using 3-point bending tests under static and dynamic (fatigue) loading conditions. Additional tensile tests have been carried out to evaluate the mating effect. Interface and microstructure of these composites have also been evaluated using scanning electron microscopy.
