Object oriented finite element analysis (OOF2) is used to estimate the thermal and mechanical properties of WC– Al 2 O 3 composites. In the present work, five compositions of 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% Al 2 O 3 (by volume) are studied. Young's modulus, thermal conductivity and thermal expansion coefficient are estimated using OOF2 and compared with other known analytical methods. Stress and strain contours are plotted to study the thermal and mechanical behavior of composites. It is found that the stresses are largely concentrated at the interfaces of the WC– Al 2 O 3 phases.
