Abstract: The present work deals with the objective of characterizing the dynamic behavior of metal matrix composites processed using stir casting method. An important outcome in the dynamic analysis of composite structure is the determination of their natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping ratio. This is important because composite material structures often operate in complex surrounding conditions and are sometimes exposed to a variety of dynamic excitations. In this work, an experimental modal analysis approach is used to characterize the vibration behavior of MMC plate. The hybrid MMCs was prepared with varying weight proportions of TiO2 particles for 4%, 8% and 12% and graphite of 3% constant weight. The results obtained were indicates that the increase in the natural frequency and damping ratio due to addition of titanium dioxide and constant proportion of graphite with aluminium alloy 6061.
