n this paper, densification behavior of nanocomposite powders of Al/15 vol% B4C was investigated during the single action
compaction. The Drucker/Prager Cap model was applied to determine compaction be-havior and density distribution of Al/
B4C composite and nanocomposite powders. Experimental data and parameters in the model were obtained from compression
tests with various loading conditions. Finite element results from the models were com-pared with experimental data for
densifica-tion behavior of mixture of powders. Re-sults of the density distribution obtained with the model show a good
agreement with the experimental data. The experimental data and model show that density distribution of Al/15%volB4C
nanocomposite powders is more uniform compared to the composite ones.
