10.1 Introduction
In the present day scenario, the development of metal matrix composites (MMCs) has been receiving global recognition because of its superior properties in terms of strength, stiffness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance compared to monolithic metals. MMCs are generally formed by the blend of a hard reinforcement phase in the metallic matrix. The different matrix materials used are copper, magnesium, aluminum, and their alloys [1–4]. Alumina, silicon carbide, ...
