Strengthening mechanisms in whisker-reinforced aluminium composites

Effect of heat treatment and stress relaxation in 7075 aluminum alloy

“…In the past, stress relaxation has been studied extensively in high purity metals, e.g., copper [8], aluminum [9], nickel [10], tungsten [11], cobalt [12], iron [13], zirconium [14], and niobium [15] etc. from the viewpoint of basic research to develop and test models of relaxation mechanism in terms of dislocation movement in crystals.…”
