Dynamic Characteristics Study for Surface Composite of AMMNCs Matrix Fabricated by Friction Stir Process

In the present work, Aluminum Metal Matrix Surface Nano Composites (AMMSNCs) were manufactured using Friction Stir Processing (FSP). Moreover, the fabricated surface composite matrix was exposed to a different number of tool passes with different processing parameters. The tensile test and microstructure examinations were used to study the mechanical properties of the composite surface. The dynamic properties were predicted using modal analysis and finite element methods. After this, dynamic characterization was achieved by combining the numerical and experimental methods to investigate the effects of changing the number of passes on the natural frequency and the damping capacity of the AMMSNCs manufactured using FSP. The results indicated that the damping capacity and dynamic behavior improved with an increased number of FSP passes.
