THE EFFECT OF MICROSTRUCTURE AND TEXTURE ON HIGH CYCLE FATIGUE PROPERTIES OF AL ALLOYS

High cycle fatigue tests were carried out on a medium strength continuous casting AA 5754 Al alloy, and new generation high strength AA 2026 and AA 2099 Al alloys. The effect of texture on fatigue properties and short crack behavior were studied. The strengthening mechanisms were also thoroughly inv...
