| Abstract Aluminum – copper ( Al – 4wt%Cu ) alloy metal matrix composites MMCs reinforced with 0.5 ,1.0 ,1.5 % wt of both SiC and Al2O3 particles were fabricated by stir-casting .The effects of SiC and Al2O3 particles content on the fatigue behavior of the Al – 4wt%Cu unreinforced base alloy and the resulted composites were investigated. The results show that fatigue strengths of base alloy increased with increasing weight fractions of ceramic particles and the fatigue strength of MMCs reinforced with SiC particles is higher than that of reinforced with Al2O3 particles | ||
