Residual stresses and fatigue performances at cold expanded fastener holes

This work presents an investigation of the effect of cold-expansion methods on both residual stress distributions and fatigue life improvements in a high strength 7050 T76 aluminium alloy. Cold-expansion is usually achieved by the FTI split-sleeve process using commercially available equipment and p...
