| Research Abstract |
In this research, Al-Al_3Ni functionally graded materials(FGMs) were used. The FGMs manufactured by the centrifugal method were thixoformed at the temperature just above the eutectic melting point. The product under the suitable condition is found to have refined Al3Ni grains, which change from coarse grains and are expected to improve the mechanical properties. We discussion the wear properties of the FGM by the result of the Wavelet analysis applied to the AE signals measured in our wear testing system.
