| Abstract: | Conclusions The aluminum-boron system was chosen for studying the mechanism and conditions of deformation of metallic composite materials reinforced with brittle fibers. It was established that, unlike that of an orthodox metallic material, the bending of a composite is accompanied by displacement of a neutral layer in the direction of compression. The causes and character of the displacement of this layer in the course of deformation were determined. The role of processing pads in bending was examined. A study was made of the fracture of fiber-reinforced composites on the attainment of critical values of strain.Translated from Poroshkovaya Metallurgiya, No. 11(239), pp. 80–85, November, 1982. |
