Studies of the basic structural changes that occur when a metal is subjected to cyclic stress have found it convenient to divide the fatigue process into the following stages ...
The aircraft industry has leaded the effort to understand and predict fatigue crack growth. They have developed the safe-life or fail-safe design approach. In this method, a component is designed in a ...
The fatigue properties of metals are quite structure-sensitive. However, at the present time there are only a limited number of ways in which the fatigue properties can be improved by metallurgical means ...
By using Design for Performance methodology, fatigue properties of several nickel-based alloys have been examined. Mechanical tests and microstructural study after different direct aging treatments ...
The total life time during fatigue generally can be divided into two regimes: one for crack initiation and another one for crack propagation. In the case of precipitation hardened alloys both regimes are ...
It has been recognized since 1830 that a metal subjected to a repetitive or fluctuating stress will fail at a stress much lower than that required to cause fracture on a single application of load. Failures ...
Aluminum alloys are progressively used in the automobile industry due to several advantages such as low specific weight, good formability, good corrosion resistance and a nice surface appearance. The ...
The hot-rolled material exhibited the best overall combination of fatigue properties for the maximum strength temper. The predominantly unrecrystallized microstructure of hot-rolled 7475-T6 promoted a high...
