Crack initiation mechanisms in low cycle fatigue of aluminium alloy 7075 T6
P. Li,N.J. Marchand,B. Ilschner +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, fully reversed strain-controlled push-pull tests were performed on polycrystalline specimens of aluminium alloy 7075 T6 to investigate the influence of temperature and strain amplitude on the micromechanisms of cyclic plastic deformation and crack initiation.

Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of aluminium alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, a general understanding of the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) mechanism(s) and critical metallurgical issues affecting the SCC behaviour of aluminium alloys are discussed.

Typical Electron Microscope Investigations
TL;DR: In this paper, the correlation of information present in both images and diffraction patterns is investigated for complex commercial alloys, where detailed quantitative interpretation of the microstructure can be extremely difficult because a whole range of different finely dispersed crystal defects may be present simultaneously.

The nucleation of precipitates: The system Al-Zn-Mg
TL;DR: In this article, a semiquantitative theory has been developed for the formation of precipitate free zones at grain boundaries and the results have been used to develop a model of nucleation by vacancy/solute atom clusters.
