Abstract: The present work was planned to evaluate the mechanical properties of alumina reinforced aluminium alloy such hardness and compression behavior of al2o3 /aa7075 alloy metal matrix composites. Both, experimental and finite element analyses were carried out to establish tensile behaviour of the composites with different weight percentage of al2o3 fabricated by the stir casting process. The results concluded that addition of alumina to the aa7075 improves the mechanical properties of the composite. Further the results of FEA simulation of the composites are close to the actual results which shows that cost and time can be reduced if FEA is performed.
