Abstract: Fractal analysis was used to observe the size, shape and distribution of pores in Al-V2O5 mechanically alloyed composite. The analysis reveals that the pores are of irregular shapes, i.e shrinkage pores, with sphericity < 0.3.The `worst` of the shapes is the pore with = 1.0254e-009 and D = 1.8541, while the `best` shape is the pore with = 4.8309e-004 and D = 1.6521. Also, the graph of against D shows that as decreases the D values increases. This is in agreement with the theoretical background.
