Abstract

In this article, the effect of nanoceramic reinforcements on the mechanical properties of aluminum matrix composites was critically reviewed. Reinforcement of an Al alloy with nanoceramic particulates is expected to improve its tensile strength. This article also reports the role of an integrated optimization approach using an artificial neural network and a modified particle swarm to solve a process parameter design problem in casting of this class of metal matrix nanocomposites. The artificial neural network is used to obtain the relationships between decision variables and the performance measures of interest, while the particle swarm is used to perform the optimization with multiple objectives.
