Whether alloy are only isotropic and homogeneous like metals, or alloys also exhibit orthotropic/anisotropic and heterogeneous like CompositeMaterials?
I was wondering, are alloys considered isotropic and homogeneous, like metals, or can they also be orthotropic/anisotropic and heterogeneous like composite materials?
Alloys can exhibit both isotropic and homogeneous properties, as well as orthotropic/anisotropic and heterogeneous properties, depending on their composition and processing methods.
