Article Machinability Investigation on Cnc Milling of Recycled Short Carbon Fiber Reinforced Magnesium Matrix Composites(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2024) Atasoy, Sahin; Kandemir, SinanThis study investigates the machinability of magnesium matrix composites reinforced with short carbon fibers, which represent novel materials in the field. AZ91 alloy and its composites containing 2.5 and 5 wt% recycled carbon fiber (rCF) reinforcements were used as workpieces. Face milling was conducted using uncoated carbide cutting tools under dry cutting conditions with varied cutting speeds (480-560-640 m min(-1)) and feed rates (0.65-0.8-0.95 mm min(-1)). The experimental design was based on the Taguchi L-9 (3(3)) orthogonal array. Analysis included cutting forces, surface roughness, wear on cutting inserts, and chip morphology to assess machinability. Taguchi, analysis of variance, and regression methods were employed to analyze cutting force and surface roughness results. Findings indicated satisfactory machinability for AZ91 alloy and comparatively poorer performance for the 5 wt% rCF reinforced composite, with increased reinforcement content correlating with higher cutting force and surface roughness. SEM and EDX analyses revealed significant built-up layer formation on cutting inserts, with predominantly spiral-shaped continuous chips observed in the experiments. Overall, the study affirmed the machinability of the composites and identified suitable cutting parameters for further investigations.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Fatigue Assessment of Copper-Brazed Stainless-Steel Joints for Plate Heat Exchangers(Wiley, 2025) Hayta, Yigit; Kandemir, SinanCyclic pressures can cause fatigue failure in the brazed joints and plates of the plate heat exchangers (PHEs). This study examines the fatigue behavior of PHEs made from 316L and 304L steels brazed with copper foils employing strain-controlled fatigue tests to explore if 304L could replace 316L in the existing production line for cost reduction. Fatigue tests were conducted at four different load levels with a stress ratio of zero and a frequency of 5 Hz. Finite Element Analysis was used to assess strain distribution and estimate PHE lifespan based on generated strain versus number of cycles to failure curves. The microstructural analysis revealed that copper diffuses more easily into 316L than 304L, and using 50 mu m thick foil causes more defects compared with 100 mu m foil. It was shown that 316L joints have a significantly increased fatigue life compared with 304L. Both 316L and 304L met the 15-year lifetime requirement set by manufacturers.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Effects of Tib2 Nanoparticle Content on the Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Aluminum Matrix Nanocomposites(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2017) Kandemir, SinanThe present work reports the fabrication of A357 alloy matrix nanocomposites reinforced with 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 wt.-% TiB2 nanoparticles (20-30 nm) by a novel method which is the combination of semi-solid mechanical mixing and ultrasonic dispersion of nanoparticles in liquid state. The microstructural and mechanical properties of the fabricated nanocomposites were investigated. The microstructural studies conducted with optical and advanced electron microscopes indicated that reasonably effective deagglomeration and uniform distribution of TiB2 nanoparticles into the matrix were achieved. Transmission electron microscopy studies also confirmed that the nanoparticles were embedded into the matrix and a good bonding was obtained between the matrix and the reinforcement. Increasing nanoparticle content led to grain refinement and significant enhancement in the mechanical properties of nanocomposites. The addition of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 wt.-% TiB2 nanoparticles increased the 0.2 % proof stress of matrix alloy by approximately 31, 48 and 61 %, respectively. The contribution of different mechanisms to the strength enhancement is discussed. It is proposed that the strengthening is mainly due to Orowan mechanism and dislocation generation effect by the coefficient of thermal expansion mismatch between the TiB2 nanoparticles and the matrix.Conference Object Development of Graphene Nanoplatelets Reinforced Aluminium Matrix Nanocomposites by a Combination of Semi-Solid Stirring and Ultrasonic Treatment(European Conference on Composite Materials, 2016) Kandemir, Sinan; Aydoğan, YücelGraphene Nanoplatelets (GNPs) consisting of graphene layers with a thickness less than 100 nm have recently emerged as a promising reinforcement type owing to their excellent physical and mechanical properties to improve mechanical properties of alloys beyond ceramic nanoparticles. Although there are numerous studies on GNPs reinforced polymer matrix composites in the literature, the number of studies related to the incorporation of GNPs in metal matrices is limited. It is a challenging task to incorporate and uniformly distribute GNPs into liquid metals due to their poor wettability and large surface-to-volume ratio. The purpose of this study is to effectively disperse GNPs into liquid aluminium. 0.5 wt.% GNPs with an average thickness of 50-100 nm and size of 5 ?m were first incorporated into A360 aluminium alloy under semi-solid stirring, and then the composite was ultrasonically treated in fully liquid state. The microstructural investigation of the nanocomposites by optical and scanning electron microscopy may suggest that relatively uniform distribution and effective deagglomeration of GNPs in the matrix were achieved. The hardness of the GNPs reinforced nanocomposites increased in comparison with that of semi-solid stirred and ultrasonically processed A360 alloy without reinforcement, indicating the potential of GNPs for strengthening metals. © 2016, European Conference on Composite Materials, ECCM.
