Abstract:Al alloys of 2xxx series (Al 2024 ) with high specific strength, good fracture toughness, and excellent fatigue properties have been found important applications in the aerospace industry. In commercial Al 2024 alloys, Cu and Mg are the main alloying elements with small amount of Si and other minor elements such as Mn, Zn, Ti and Fe [1][2]. Nonetheless, has recently been reported an increment on strength and hardness by Mg addition (< 2 wt. %); however, this is accompanied by a decrease in ductility and impac… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
