Abstract:The work in this report was a five year effort to foster fundamental advances in microstructureproperty fatigue relations of a cast A356-T6 aluminum alloy. We identified and quantified microstructure-property relations and then developed a mathematical tool for fatigue analysis of a cast A356-T6 aluminum alloy that is used in automotive structural components. We focused on three main areas of research: a wide variety of cyclic experiments in which specimens were examined with scanning electron microscopic imag… Show more
