Aluminium metal matrix composite have been emerged as advanced materials that are well suited in automotive, space, aircraft, defense, and in other engineering sectors. Aluminum and its alloys occupy third place among the commercially used engineering materials. Use of aluminium in transport sector has increased from just 6% in 1950 to 28% in 2010. The aluminum metal matrix composite have applications in many industries especially in aerospace domain, however to extend their application limit, an appropriate effective joining methods needed for developing a robust structure.
