INTRODUCTION
The aluminium metal matrix composite has various advantages when combined with stainless steel fibre reinforced. This project discuss about the experimental and analysis result of the metal matrix composite. The mechanical behaviour like stress strain behaviour, yield strength, has been increased on adding this reinforcement. Hence the aluminium and stainless is been used in many applications like high strength, good corrosive resistance, stiffness and low thermal expansion.
The welding is also a process of joining two parts into one. But when investigated microscopically the accuracy will be less when compared to diffusion bonding. As in aerospace and in nuclear applications such precise and accurate bonding results have been obtained. It is well known that Almatrix composites are used in various applications like landing gear for

Diffusion Bonding
The method was invented by the Soviet scientist N.F. Kazakov in 1953. Diffusion Bonding (DFB) is a solid state Bonding process by which two metals can be bonded together. Diffusion bonding is a method of joining metallic or non-metallic materials. The two materials are pressed together at an elevated temperature usually between 50 and 70% of the melting point. As in aerospace and in nuclear applications such precise and accurate bonding results have been obtained. This bonding technique is based on the atomic diffusion of elements at the joining interface. Recently, diffusion bonding has become a viable process in the fabrication of structural hardware or fluid and gas flow devices for aerospace and electronic industries including thermal management devices for missiles, liquid rocket engines, and millimetre wave hybrid horns for land and space surveillance.
It is that, unlike welding, it is not a 'fusion' process the parent materials to be joined do not need to be melted. This makes diffusion bonding an ideal solution for joining materials such as: Metals Ceramics Other Advantages Include o Near-parent properties o Minimal shape change to parts o No post-finishing

Description
Mixed-mode (mode I+II) fatigue-crack growth thresholds for large and short through thickness cracks and micro structurally-small surface cracks have been examined in a finegrained Bimodal microstructure of a Ti6Al4V turbine engine alloy. The effects of bi-linear model on stressstrain, stress-life, and strain-life curves are discussed. Life predictions of aluminum alloys based on linear and bilinear models are also compared and discussed.

Description
Very long life fatigue and near-threshold fatigue crack growth behavior of 7075 and 6061 Al-alloys in T6 condition were investigated using accelerated fatigue testing at 19.5 kHz on a piezoelectric machine. A boundary-element code has been used to calculate the stress-intensity factors for a wide range of cracklength-to-width ratios and various height-to-width ratios for M(T) specimens under remote uniform stress, remote uniform displacement, or pin-loaded holes.

Description
In this paper, two different fracture criteria are applied to determine the crack trajectory or angle of crack propagation in test specimens containing inclined cracks emanating from open holes. Also, different crack growth rate models are assumed for each criterion. The maximum principal stress criterion is used with a crack growthrate equation based on an effective stress intensity factor.

This study analyses the fatigue crack growth behaviour in thin aluminum alloy sheets under several loading sequences containing periodic overloads. The observed fatigue crack growth behaviour is compared to constant amplitude loading and discussed in terms of type of loading sequence, intermediate baseline cycles and stress ratio.
PROBLEM DEFINITION
Aluminum is not very hard - it's easy to scratch. Welding of Aluminum requires specialized equipment and training compared to standard welding of steel. Its a soft material and wears easily. It is very temperature sensitive and expands and contracts with temperature change. Each part has to be formed on or in a mold and layered and baked while in vacuum. So it takes more time to make.
OBJECTIVE
The aluminium composites are widely used in various applications. Aluminium (AI1060) is major utilization in engineering filed so, AI1060 is concentrated in the project. The stainless steel wire is added as a composite to increase the strength. Since the stiffness is more for aluminum but less for stainless steel and percentage of elongation is less for aluminum but more for stainless steel. By the method of diffusion bonding the composite is prepared
MATERIAL PREPRATION
Two aluminium (Al1060) plates of 200mm length, 3mm thickness, and 35mm width is taken as matrix and stainless steel (AISI304) wire of dia 0.7mm are taken as fibre. These two aluminium plates where grooved. Between the grooved path 0.6cm gap is provided. Then metal matrix composite where to be kept in a mould. The mould is pressed for about 10bar pressure. The mould is heated directly. The temperature is maintained between 580-590c. Time interval of 45minutes is allowed to maintain the temperature to obtain good bonding result.
