Abstract

Technology is advancing, demand of the hour is increasing and to face that engineers are also ready. Maintaining the economic production with optimal use of resources is of prime concern for the engineers. Aluminum alloy materials or simply composites are combinations of materials. They are made up of combining two or more materials in such a way that the resulting materials have certain design properties on improved properties. The Aluminum alloy composite materials consist of high specific strength, high specific stiffness, more thermal stability, more corrosion and wear resistance, high fatigue life Conventional materials like Steel, Brass, Aluminium etc will fail without any indication. Cracks initiation, propagation will takes place within a short span. Now a day to overcome this problem, conventional materials are replaced by Aluminium alloy materials. Aluminium alloy materials found to the best alternative with its unique capacity of designing the materials to give required properties. In this experimental work Various mechanical properties test have been conducted by varying mass fraction of SiC and fly ash Magnisium with Aluminum to attain maximum tensile strength.
