Metal/Graphene Composites: A Review on the Simulation of Fabrication and Study of Mechanical Properties

Although carbon materials, particularly graphene and carbon nanotubes, are widely used to reinforce metal matrix composites, understanding the fabrication process and connection between morphology and mechanical properties is still not understood well. This review discusses the relevant literature concerning the simulation of graphene/metal composites and their mechanical properties. This review demonstrates the promising role of simulation of composite fabrication and their properties. Further, results from the revised studies suggest that morphology and fabrication techniques play the most crucial roles in property improvements. The presented results can open up the way for developing new nanocomposites based on the combination of metal and graphene components. It is shown that computer simulation is a possible and practical way to understand the effect of the morphology of graphene reinforcement and strengthening mechanisms.
