Abstract: This paper discusses about the weight reduction in the wing structure that improves the productivity and performance of an aircraft wing. Decrease in the mass of the wings has higher significance compared all other air craft parts Aircraft wing structures are analyzed with LM25 and a metal matrix composite material which is a mix of LM25 and Silicon Carbide (SiC) where in aluminum is the base metal and silicon carbide is added in different weight proportions. By varying silicon carbide percentage in LM25 four types of samples are prepared utilizing stir casting process. The young’s modulus, Poisson’s ratio and thickness of every sample are determined cautiously by exposing the sample to tensile test and hardness test. By looking at the material properties acquired tentatively ideal level of silicon carbide in aluminum is found. Static basic investigation is completed in ANSYS by contributing the properties of the ideal example which are acquired tentatively. The outcomes acquired from ANSYS for pure AL25 and metal matrix composite (SiC) are compared. By looking at the outcomes it is discovered that composite material has preferred material properties and stresses over LM25.
