Abstract

The Metal Matrix Composition (MMC) is one of the encouraging methods in most of the manufacturing industry. In this paper we planned to prepare the MMC using magnesium alloy and tungsten carbide. Due to the influence of simulation in every manufacturing activity, the simulation is conducted before manufacturing any component. In literature there are many techniques proposed for the simulation of various manufacturing process. But parameter optimization using suitable algorithm is a challenging task. Hence in this paper, a league championship optimization (LCO) technique proposed for the optimal parameter selection for the MMC preparation. In the proposed work, the Magnesium alloy and tungsten carbide are consider for preparing light weight and high strength MMC for automobile and aeronautical component manufacturing. Initially the LCO is executed to select the optimal parameter or ratio of two material is selected. Then FEM analysis is conducted to evaluate the strength and hardness of the modelled MMC. Then the outcome model is experimentally created and its micro hardness and strength is tested to analysis the actual result. Then the results of predicted and actual results are compared to validate the effectiveness of proposed optimization technique. Ultimately result analysis proves the closeness of the actual and predicted results.
