Analysis of AA6016 Si₃N₄/TiB₂ Hybrid Composite Material

Abstract The integration of hybrid reinforcements into aluminum matrix composites has opened new avenues for enhancing mechanical and wear properties in structural applications. This study presents a comprehensive finite element analysis (FEA) of AA6016 aluminum alloy reinforced with silicon nitride (Si₃N₄) and titanium diboride (TiB₂) using ANSYS simulation software. The hybrid composite was modeled with varying reinforcement weight fractions (2.5%, 5%, and 7.5%) to evaluate its structural behavior under mechanical loading conditions. Material properties were defined based on experimentally validated data and literature sources. Static structural analysis was performed to examine the stress distribution, deformation, and equivalent von Mises stress under tensile and compressive loading. The simulation results revealed that the addition of Si₃N₄ and TiB₂ significantly enhanced the load-carrying capacity and reduced deformation compared to the base alloy. Furthermore, wear simulation indicated improved resistance due to the hard ceramic phases. The study demonstrates the potential of ANSYS-based modeling in predicting the mechanical performance of hybrid composites, offering valuable insights for material design and optimization in real-world engineering applications.
