  Abstract: Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) have significant interest due to their superior mechanical properties, including improved strength, hardness, and fracture resistance. This study investigates the optimization of the mechanical and fracture behaviour of casted AA6061-SiC-Fly Ash (FA) MMCs using the TOPSIS method. Silicon carbide(SiC) and fly ash (FA) reinforcements, with different weight percentages of 5%, 10%, and 15% were fabricated through sand casting method. Total 10 combinations of composites are prepared …
