Abstract

Functionally Graded Metal matrix composites are one of the emerging materials in material science and engineering applications. The functionally graded composites have wide variety applications in different fields of engineering because the properties of the FGM materials can be tailored by changing the microstructure of the materials along any direction. Functionally graded composite materials can be manufactured by different methods such as Centrifugal casting, powder metallurgy, deposition methods etc. In this work aluminium based functionally graded composite is synthesized and analyzed for its mechanical characteristics. Silicon carbide particles are used as reinforcement in producing the functionally graded composite.
