II II Abstract Abstract As a kind of new and advanced engineering materials, metal matrix composites are developing very fast recently and more and more attention are gained due to their enhanced properties. SiC particle reinforced Al-matrix composites is one of the most attractive composites nowdays, moreover it is the investigative object of perfect composites both in theory and experiment. Firstly,the random distributed model of particle with MATLAB is built, then the macroscopic properties of metal matrix composites are predicted by the homogenization method was combined with finite element method. Program of topology optimization for microstructure is written based on homogenization theory to guide the optimization design of the matirial. The expression for solving the effective properties is deduced in the microscopic system based on asymptotic homogenization theory combined with finite element method. The three dimension cell model of particle random distribution is established. A MATLAB program is written. As an example, SiC particle reinforced Al-matrix composites, macroscopic effective elastic constants of composite are calculated and compared with that obtained by other methods . The results show that homogenization method is feasible to predict the effective elastic constants. The influence of shape the particle, properties, distribution and the volume percentage of the particle on the effective elastic constants of the particle reinforced metal matrix composites are forecasted. The tensile experiment of the metal matrix composites with particle uniform or random distribution is simulated by the finite element method and the contrast analysis between the results of the simulation and prediction is done, so we can know the effective elastic constants obtained from the simulation agree with those gained by the homogenization theory. It shows that the simulated experiment supplied by this paper may be a method for verifying the effective constants of the co
