Analysis of fatigue crack initiation and S-N response of model cast aluminium piston alloys

Fatigue crack initiation and S-N fatigue behaviour of hipped model Al7Si-Sr and Al0.7Si piston alloys have been investigated after overaging at 260oC for 100 h to provide a practical simulation of in-service conditions. The results show that hipping did not affect the S-N behaviour of Al7Si- Sr. Thi...
