What other materials properties would you need to
consider in choosing the best lightweighting option at
higher service temperatures (400-750.C)? Based on the
information you have, and your own knowledge from the
course, which materials system would you now
recommend for this higher temperature service
application? Justify your answer.
Explain why over the last 20 years, metal matrix
composites have attracted much interest but have yet to
achieve their full potential. Give examples of the use of
metal matrix composites in automotive applications.
