Les alliages d'aluminium de la famille 5XXX (Al-Mg) sont utilisés dans la fabrication de pièces de structure en raison de leurs bonnes propriétés mécaniques, de soudabilité et de résistance à la corrosion. Toutefois, dans des conditions d'utilisation sévères, une synergie entre la déformation plastique et les réactions de corrosion se produit et entraîne une fissuration intergranulaire, par corrosion sous contrainte (CSC), voire par fragilisation par l'hydrogène (FPH). La ductilité passe de 50% à quelques %, montrant une fissuration fragile. La compréhension des mécanismes qui régissent ce type de fissuration nécessite la détermination de l'importance respective des principaux facteurs (notamment mécaniques et chimiques). Cette étude se concentre sur le rôle de la plasticité cristalline dans le cas de la fragilisation par l'hydrogène. Pour ce faire, des éprouvettes préalablement fragilisées en surface par l'hydrogène (via un chargement cathodique) ont été sollicitées en traction. Ces essais ont été menés in situ dans le microscope électronique à balayage. Les résultats de corrélation d'image ont montré que les fissures s'amorcent dans des régions faiblement déformées adjacentes à des régions fortement déformées, là où les contraintes intergranulaires les plus élevées sont attendues. Par ailleurs, la cartographie des orientations cristallines des surfaces observées au cours des essais a servi de base à un maillage réaliste de la structure, qui a permis de calculer les champs de contraintes et de déformation locaux à l'aide d'un modèle de plasticité cristalline. Le modèle a été validé par la confrontation des prédictions à la mesure des champs de déformation et aux courbes de chargement macroscopique. Les contraintes ainsi estimées par simulation numérique ont permit d'établir un critère de rupture. Ce critère de rupture a ensuite été incorporé dans la simulation de microstructure quasi-2D grâce à un modèle de zone cohésive. Les résultats obtenus en accord avec les observations ont mis en avant la nécessité de développer une méthodologie permettant de prendre en compte les effets de la microstructure situés sous les surfaces étudiées. Ces microstructures ont été caractérisées à l'aide de plusieurs techniques d'analyse 3D de la morphologie microstructurale des agrégats polycristallins (EBSD par couches successives et par microtomographie rayons X des joints de grains à l'aide de diffusion de gallium). Les résultats des simulations avec les microstructures réelles en 3D dans le domaine élastique sont cohérant avec ceux obtenus en 2D pour des agrégats composés de 40 grainsAluminium alloys that are strengthened by alloying elements in solid solution may present a particular sensitivity to intergranular stress corrosion cracking as a result of intergranular dissolution. In Al-5Mg alloys such as AA5083, precipitation of the β-phase (Al3Mg2) at grain boundaries strongly favours intergranular fracture. Previous experimental studies revealed that local plasticity seems to play a significant role in crack initiation. Nevertheless, the exact role of crystal plasticity in the vicinity of grain boundaries is not well understood. The main goal of this doctoral thesis is two-fold: (i) to study the role of the local stress and strain fields on the mechanism of intergranular stress corrosion cracking and, based on such understanding, (ii) to develop a micro-mechanics based model to predict the onset of grain boundary cracking, through a suitably defined failure criterion, and the subsequent intergranular crack propagation. An experimental procedure based on in-situ tensile tests within the chamber of an scanning electron microscope was developed to measure the evolution of local strain fields at various microstructural scales and of lattice orientation using digital image correlation and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques, respectively. Digital image correlation techniques were used in particular over areas comprising just a few grains up to mesoscopic regions of the polycrystal to quantify the deformation and strain fields required in the multi-scale study of intergranular fracture. From these observations, it was established that interfaces between two grains which have undergone little amount of deformation but lying within a neighbourhood of significantly deformed grains are the first to develop micro-cracks. In addition, X-Ray tomography and serial EBSD sectioning analyses revealed that cracked grain boundaries were perpendicular to the applied tensile load, where maximum tensile tractions are expected. To determine the role of local stresses and local plasticity on the mechanisms of intergranular fracture, a dislocation mechanics based crystal plasticity model was employed to describe the constitutive behaviour of each grain in the finite element model of the in-situ experiments. The model parameters were calibrated as a function of the solid solution magnesium content in the aluminium alloy. Measured EBSD maps were relied upon to define the orientation of the discrete grain regions of the in-situ specimens in the corresponding multi-scale finite element (FE) models. From the FE results, a range of threshold values of the normal grain boundary tractions needed to initiate intergranular cracks was identified. This finding is in close agreement with the predictions from an analytical solution of a simplified model of intergranular cracking based on an extension of Eshelby's theory for inclusions. Finally, a cohesive zone model calibrated with the critical grain boundary tractions and typical surface energies was added to the FE model of the polycrystal. A comparison between the experimental and numerical results reveals a good agreement with the observed experimental cracking pattern

In this work, understanding the microstructural effects of monotonic and cyclic failure of wrought 7075-T651 and cast A356 aluminum alloys were examined. In particular, the structure-property relations were quantified for the plasticity/damage model and two fatigue crack models. Several types of experiments were employed to adapt an internal state variable plasticity and damage model to the wrought alloy. The damage model was originally developed for cast alloys and thus, the model was modified to account for void nucleation, growth, and coalescence for a wrought alloy. In addition, fatigue experiments were employed to determine structure-property relations for the cast alloy. Based on microstructural analysis of the fracture surfaces, modifications to the microstructurally-based MultiStage fatigue model were implemented. Additionally, experimental fatigue crack results were used to calibrate FASTRAN, a fatigue life prediction code, to small fatigue-crack-growth behavior. Lastly, a set of experiments were employed to explore the damage history effect associated with cast and wrought alloys and to provide motivation for monotonic and fatigue modeling efforts.

Aluminum alloys are widely used in aircraft industry for their strength and light weight. Those alloys that are hardened by precipitation, especially the Copper-rich of the 2000 series, are prone to corrosion and are protected against it using chromate containing coatings. The primary component of these coating systems is Chromium 6+ (CrVI) that has been found to be very toxic in the environment and carcinogenic, toxic and mutagenic in humans.
The Mg-rich primer development is the result of a successful multi-year project funded by the US Air-force with its objective the replacement of coatings based on CrVI with a class of coatings less toxic and with comparable protective performances. The Mg rich primer fulfilled the USAF requirements and it is currently undergoing commercial and military qualifications testing.
The use of Mg as one of the active pigments in coatings allows the primer to protect the underlying Al sacrificially, not considered possible for this substrate until now. Mg is anodic to most of the other structural metals and when particulate Mg became available commercially, the concept of the primer was first developed by analogy to Zn-rich coatings for steel. When Mg and Al are in contact and immersed in a corrosive environment, magnesium corrodes preferentially and protects the aluminum.

This thesis systematically investigates the properties of the aluminium adherend which influence the fracture toughness of aluminium-epoxy adhesive joints in humid environments. The fracture energy of the adhesive joint exposed to a humid environment in comparison with the fracture energy in a dry environment provides a measure of the joint durability. A 500C and 95% relative humidity environment is used to simulate aging of an adhesive joint over several years under normal service conditions. Initially, surface roughness is found to have a significant influence on the fracture toughness of the adhesive joint in humid conditions. A direct correlation between the bond durability and the angle of deliberately machined micro-roughness in the aluminium surface is determined. Consequently a model is developed which initially has the capacity to describe the bond durability performance. The preparation of aluminium surfaces involves the use of a novel ultramilling tool to produce well defined and controlled surface topography. This work represents the first time surface angles of features in the 1????m to 10????m range have been systematically varied and a direct relationship with bond durability has been determined. The use of surface analytical tools aids in elucidating mechanisms involved in the failure of the adhesive joint and contributes to the development of the stress based diffusion model. Examination of the aluminium oxide hydration level reveals this property has a negligible effect on the fracture toughness of the aluminium-epoxy joints exposed to humid environments. This information confirms the dominant role of the physical properties of the aluminium surface in determining the adhesive joint durability. This is the first occasion that planer oxide films grown in an RF plasma have had their hydration state adjusted in a controlled manner and their properties subsequently assessed in terms of bond durability properties. Further alteration of the aluminium surface chemistry is achieved through the application of an organo-silane coupling agent and a series of novel organo-phosphonate compounds. This work further develops the stress based diffusion model developed in conjunction with the micro-machining studies. The components of surface roughness and the ability of interfacial bonds to co-operatively share load are essential for the maintenance of fracture toughness of adhesive joints exposed to humid conditions. The ability of the silane coupling agent to share load through a chemically cross-linked film is a significant property which provides the superior fracture toughness in comparison with the phosphonate treated joints. Although the organo-phosphonate treated aluminium provides hydrolytically more stable bonds than the silane coupling agent, the film is not cross-linked via primary chemical bonds and the reduced load sharing capacity of interfacial bonds increases the bond degradation rate. The stress based diffusion model evolving from the initial work in the thesis can be used to predict the performance of more complex systems based on a thorough characterisation of the aluminium surface chemistry and topography. The stress based diffusion model essentially describes the concept of the production of micro-cavities at the epoxy-aluminium interface under mode 1 load, as a result of the distribution of strong and weak adhesive bonds. Alternatively, micro-cavities may result from an inhomogeneous stress distribution. In areas where the adhesive bonds are weak, or the local stresses are high, the interfacial load produces larger micro-cavities which provide a path of low resistance for water to diffuse along the bond-line. The water then degrades the adhesive bond either through the displacement of interfacial epoxy bonds or the hydration of the oxide to form a weak barrier layer through which fracture can occur. Alternatively, the water can hydrolyse the adhesive in the interfacial region, leading to cohesive failure of the epoxy resin. The bond durability performance of a series of complex hydrated oxide films used to pre-treat the aluminium adherend provides support for the stress based diffusion model. Whilst surface area is an important property of the aluminium adherend in producing durable bonding, the best durability achievable, between an epoxy adhesive and aluminium substrate, requires a component of surface roughness which enhances the load sharing capability in the interfacial bonding region. This component of durability performance is predicted by the model. In more specific terms, a boiling water treatment of the aluminium adherend indicates a direct correlation between bond durability, surface area and topography. The characterisation of film properties indicates that the film chemistry does not change as a function of treatment conditions, however, the film topography and surface area does. The overall bond durability performance is linked to both of these properties. The detailed examination of the hydrated oxide film, produced by the boiling water treatment of aluminium, is the first time the bond durability performance has been related to the film topography. It is also the first occasion that the mechanism of film growth has been examined over such a large treatment time. The combination of surface analysis and bond durability measurements is invaluable in confirming the properties, predicted by the stress based diffusion model, which are responsible in forming fracture resistant adhesive bonds in humid conditions. The bond durability of high surface area and low surface area hydrated oxide films indicates that surface area is an important property. However, this study confirms that the absence of the preferred surface topography limits the ultimate bond durability performance attainable. The fracture toughness measurements performed on aluminium adherends pre-treated with a low surface area film also supports the mechanism of load sharing of interfacial adhesive bonds and its contribution to the overall bond durability. The role performed by the individual molecules and particles in an oxide film is similar to the load sharing performed by the silane coupling agent molecules. Further support for the stress based diffusion model is provided by films produced on aluminium immersed in nickel salt solutions. The topography of these film alters as a function of treatment time and this is directly related to fracture toughness in humid environments. This work provides the first instance where such films have been characterised in detail and their properties related to bond durability performance. The study is also the first time that the growth mechanism of the film produced on the aluminium substrate has been examined in detail. The film growth mechanism supports the film growth model proposed for the hydrated oxide film produced by the boiling water treatment. The major findings presented in this thesis are summarised as the direct correlation between surface profile angle, the importance of co-operative load sharing of interfacial adhesive bonds and the relative insignificance of surface oxide hydration in the formation of durable aluminium-epoxy adhesion. This information is used to develop a stress based diffusion model which has the capacity to describe the fracture toughness of a range of aluminium-epoxy adhesive joint systems in humid environments. The stress based diffusion model is also capable of predicting the relative performance of the bond systems examined in the final chapters of the thesis, where complex interfacial oxide films are involved in the formation of adhesive bonds.

[Truncated abstract. Please see pdf format for complete text.] Over the years much work has been done on studying sequence effects under multilevel loading. Yet, the underlying fatigue mechanisms responsible for such interactions are not fully understood. The study of fatigue under complex loading histories begins by investigating strain interaction effects arising from simple 2-step loading sequences. Fatigue for all investigations were conducted under uniaxial push-pull mode in strain-control. Fatigue is traditionally classified as either low or high cycle fatigue (LCF and HCF respectively). The boundary for LCF and HCF is not well-defined even though the fatigue life of LCF is typically dominated by crack “initiation”, while for HCF, fatigue life is usually dominated by stable crack growth. The terms LCF and HCF, apart from referring to the low and high number of fatigue cycles required for failure, also bear little physical meaning in terms of describing the state of fatigue imposed. As a result, conventional definitions of the two distinct regimes of fatigue are challenged and a new method of classifying the boundary between the two regimes of fatigue is proposed. New definitions are proposed and the terms plastically dominant fatigue (PDF) and elastically dominant fatigue (EDF) are introduced as suitable replacements for LCF and HCF respectively. PDF refers to the condition of a material undergoing significant reverse plasticity during cyclic loading, while for EDF, minimal reverse plasticity is experienced. Systematic testing of three materials, 316 L stainless steel, 6061-T6 aluminium alloy and 4340 high strength steel, was performed to fully investigate the cycle ratio trends and “damage” accumulation behaviour which resulted from a variety of loading conditions. Results from this study were carried over to investigate more complex multilevel loading sequences and possible mechanisms for interaction effects observed both under 2-step and multi-step sequences were proposed. Results showed that atypical cycle ratio trends could result from loading sequences which involve combinations of strain amplitudes from different fatigue regimes (i.e. PDF or EDF). Mean strain effects on fatigue life were also studied. The objective of this study was to identify regimes of fatigue which are significantly influenced by mean strains. Results indicated that mean strains affected EDF but not PDF. 2-step tests, similar to those performed in earlier studies were conducted to investigate the effects of mean strain on variable amplitude loading. Again, atypical cycle ratio trends were observed for loading sequences involving combinations of PDF and EDF. It is understood that fatigue crack growth interaction behaviour and mean stress effects are two dominant mechanisms which can be used to explain cycle ratio trends observed. The significance and importance of proper PDF/EDF definition and specification are also stressed. The study of fracture mechanics is an important component of any fatigue research. Fatigue crack growth in 4140 high strength steel CT specimens, under conditions of plane stress and plane strain were studied. In this investigation, the effects of R and overload ratios were also studied for both plane stress and plane strain conditions. Results indicate that differences in the point of crack “initiation” under both plane stress and plane strain conditions decrease with increasing load range, while the extent of crack retardation as a result of overloading, is greater under plane stress than plane strain conditions. The extent of crack growth retardation increases with decreasing R ratios and increasing overload ratios. The final phase of this project involves the proposal of two practical models used to predict cumulative “damage” and fatigue crack propagation in metals. The cumulative “damage” model proposed takes the form of a power law and the exponent which governs “damage” accumulation can easily be calculated by knowing the failure life, Nf, for a given strain or load level. Predictions for the “damage” model performed better when compared to other popular cumulative “damage” models. The second model proposed predicts fatigue crack growth behaviour from known monotonic and smooth specimen fatigue data. There are several benefits of having a model that can predict fatigue crack growth from monotonic and smooth specimen fatigue data: a) traditionally, engineers had to rely on expensive and time-consuming crack propagation tests to evaluate and select materials for maximum fatigue resistance, and b) monotonic and smooth specimen fatigue data are readily available. The crack propagation model is proposed to alleviate the material selection process by providing engineers a means to rapidly eliminate and narrow down selections for possible material candidates.

In this dissertation, the fatigue characteristics of three newly developed experimental compositions for aluminum 7175, with improved mechanical strength, that uses magnesium-calcium alloy instead of pure magnesium are studied.
Specimens of each variant were fabricated and subjected to fatigue life testing, fatigue life data analysis, and observation of their fracture characteristics through optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and metallography to study their grains and surface characteristics.
Fatigue life testing shows all three variants have a fatigue strength that is approaching approximately 200 MPa. ECO7175v3 is shown to have the highest fatigue strength of approximately 220 MPa at 5x107 cycles, approximately 40% of its tensile strength of 550 MPa. This is shown by its considerably higher fatigue strength coefficient determined by Basquin's equation compared to the other two variants. ECO7175v1 is shown to generally have large scatter in its fatigue life at higher stress levels (65% or higher of their tensile strength) with coefficient of variations typically twice or more to those of ECO7175v2 and ECO7175v3.
The results of the SEM analysis shows that irrespective of the stress levels, ECO7175v1 and ECO7175v3 all have crack initiation points at the surface with no inclusions to act as stress concentrators. The lack of inclusions are supported by the reliability analysis which shows the hazard rates for all variants remains relatively constant the majority of the time before increasing towards the end. These trends for all variants indicates failures are due to wear-outs instead of defects, which were not seen. Reliability analysis also shows that at any given fatigue life cycle and stress level, ECO7175v3 has a lower probability of failure when compared to ECO7175v1 and ECO7175v2. On the other hand, at any given fatigue life cycle and stress level, ECO7175v1 is shown to have a higher probability of failure when compared to ECO7175v2 and ECO7175v3.

The main objective of this work is the development of a novel integrated multiphysics modeling, testing, and optimization of friction stir welding (FSW) for aluminum alloys, and thereby facilitating a better understating of processing-microstructure-properties relationships in this relatively new welding technique. To this end, in this paper-based dissertation, first we review various models and optimization methods used in the field of FSW. Next, based on the current state-of-the-art and a validated 3D thermal model for aluminum 6061 along with a Taguchi design of experiments approach, we make a proposition that hot welds (with maximum temperature during FSW) have the lowest mechanical properties as opposed to cold welds. Using further experimental studies we also propose that another determining parameter in the resulting mechanical properties of FSW welds is the material flow around the tool which in very cold weld conditions may cause low mechanical properties due to low mechanical bonding.
Next, we develop and validate a novel two-dimensional Eulerian steady-state “integrated multiphysics” model of FSW of aluminum 6061 which did not exist earlier in the literature and can simultaneously predict temperature, shear strain rate, shear stress and strain fields over the entire workpiece. The model can additionally predict microstructural changes during and after FSW as well as residual stresses. In order to investigate the effect of different material constitutive equations on this integrated multiphysics model, we implement and compare most commonly used CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and CSM (Computational Solid Mechanics) constitutive equations and show their similarities and differences. Using the same integrated multiphysics model, for the first time we also present a new semi-experimental approach to measure strain during FSW using visioplasticity.
Finally, we perform a comprehensive experimental study (tensile testing, Electron Back Scatter Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and micro-hardness testing) on FSW of aluminum 6061 samples in order to further validate the developed numerical model and optimize the welding process parameters (tool rotation speed, weld speed and axial force). The experimental study also prove the above mentioned preposition on a correlation among the processing-microstructure-mechanical properties during FSW, especially when comparing the UTS of samples from cold and hot weld conditions.

A method has been developed to produce grain sizes as low as 5µm in β-CuAlNi alloys and the effect of grain size on mechanical and strain-memory properties was studied. The thermomechanical treatment procedure involved two. sequential warm working and recrystallization steps at 600° C and 800° C respectively on eutectoid alloys. Three different eutectoid alloys, two with Ms temperature of around 0°C and one with Ms = 220° C were used for the present studies. Even at fine grain sizes, the specimens produced were of single β- phase type without any second phases.
Two-stage characteristic stress-strain curves were obtained for most of the specimens in both the strain memory and pseudoelastic states. It was found that the ultimate tensile strength and strain to failure increased with decreasing grain size according to a Hall-Petch relationship down to a grain size of 5µm with the exception of one alloy. Fracture strengths of 1,200 MPa and fracture strains of 10% could be obtained.
It was found that the major recovery mode, whether pseudoelastic or strain memory, did not have any significant effect on the total recovery obtained. Recovery properties were not affected significantly by decreasing grain size. Approximately 86% recovery could be obtained for an initial applied strain of 5% at a grain size of around 10µm.
Grain refinement increased the fatigue life considerably, possibly due to high ultimate fracture strength and ductile fracture mode. Fatigue life of 275,000 cycles could be obtained for an applied stress of 330 MPa and a steady state strain of 0.6%.
Most of the fractures are due to intergranular-type brittle fracture. At fine grain sizes, transgranular-type brittle fracture and microvoid coalescence-type ductile fracture dominated the fracture mode. Oxygen segregation at grain boundaries is the possible explanation for the different mechanical properties shown by different alloys in the present work by being a major factor in causing intergranular-type fracture.Applied Science, Faculty of

MetPreg, a composite developed by Touchstone Research Laboratories (Tridelphia, WV), is an aluminum metal matrix composite reinforced by continuous NextelTM 610 alumina fibers. The question is, after processing, are the NextelTM fibers affected in any way that their strengthening contribution to the composite is reduced? From experimentation and statistical analysis, a strength distribution of pre-processed NextelTM 610 fibers is formed and an empirical correlation is developed relating strength to the observed flaw size on the failed single fibers. This correlation is then independently applied to flaw size information gathered from fibers on the fracture surface of MetPreg samples to develop a separate strength distribution of post-processed NextelTM 610 fibers. The pre- and post-processed distributions are compared to one another to determine the effect, if any, that composite processing has on the strength of NextelTM 610 fibers. The results indicate that the in-situ strength distribution of fibers was increased by composite processing.Master of Science

AbstraktSyfte:Studiens syfte var att utreda maxlasttoleransen mellan yttria-stabiliserad zirkoniumdioxid- (Y-TZP) och metallkeramiska- (MC) molarkronor med en ny design på in vitro belastningsformen. En stålkula användes för att utöva last på kusparna istället för i fissuren för att framställa en sprickbildning liknande den som ses kliniskt. Materialochmetod:26 kronor tillverkades, varav 13 högädla MC och 13presintrade Y-TZP. 7 av MC göts av 50% tidigare icke-gjuten och 50% omgjuten legering medan de kvarvarande 6 göts av 100% tidigare icke gjuten legering. Kronorna täcktes av ett fasadporslinoch cementerades på stansar av ett resinmaterial. Av de 26 kronorna genomgick 24 förbelastingstester och belastades slutligen till fraktur. Resultat: MC klarade signifikant högre belastningar än Y-TZP, P>0,001. Frakturerna skiljde sig också grupperna emellan där MC-gruppen uppvisade enbart adhesiva frakturer av fasadporslinet under det att Y-TZP-gruppen uppvisade kohesiva brott i ytporslinet undantaget en Y-TZP-krona som uppvisade total fraktur. Ingen signifikant skillnad kunde ses mellan MC-kronor bestående av enbart tidigare icke gjuten legering och MC-kronor med 50% omgjuten legering, P=0,370. Konklusion: MC-kronor klararsignifikant högre belastningar än Y-TZP-kronor och testet genererar kliniskt relevanta frakturer av ytporslinet snarare än totala frakturer. Frakturbeteendet skiljer sig mellan MC och Y-TZP där MC uppvisar endast adhesiva fraktureroch Y-TZP främst kohesiva brott av ytporslinet.

L'élaboration de nouveaux alliages maintient un fort intérêt pour le phénomène d’instabilité plastique, ou l'effet Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC), provoqué par l'interaction des dislocations avec des atomes de soluté. Par ailleurs, l'effet PLC attire l'intérêt comme un exemple remarquable d'auto-organisation dans les systèmes dynamiques. Il est associé à des motifs complexes de séries de chutes de contrainte liées à la nucléation et au mouvement des bandes de déformation dans le matériau déformé, et nécessite une compréhension de l'auto-organisation des dislocations. La déformation plastique des alliages Al-Mg est sujette à l'instabilité dans une large gamme de conditions expérimentales. Pour cette raison, les alliages Al-Mg binaires ont longtemps servi d'objets modèles pour l'étude de l'effet PLC. En même temps, l'utilisation pratique des alliages binaires Al-Mg est limitée en raison d’une faible résistance mécanique. Une amélioration significative de leurs propriétés peut être atteinte en ajoutant des solutés supplémentaires, conduisant en particulier à la formation de précipités. En outre, une forte réduction de la taille de grains du polycristal pourrait être une technique clé pour produire des matériaux à haute résistance et ténacité. Cependant, il existe très peu d'information, souvent contradictoire, sur l'instabilité PLC dans les alliages Al-Mg à grains fins et contenant des précipités. Le but de l'étude de cette thèse a été d'étudier les caractéristiques spécifiques de l'effet PLC dans les alliages à base AlMg, avec et sans nanoparticules, à gros grains et à grains fins, ces derniers obtenus par une méthode de déformation plastique sévère. Grâce à l’application de méthodes d’extensométrie locale, notamment de la technique de corrélation d’images, ces études ont révélé une persistance non habituelle de la propagation des bandes de déformation dans les alliages comprenant des précipités et/ou des grains fins. Ce mode dynamique est observé dans un large intervalle de vitesses de déformation, tandis qu’il n’apparait qu’à haute vitesse dans des alliages modèles AlMg. Par ailleurs, l’analyse des distributions statistiques des amplitudes des chutes de contrainte a révélé une tendance vers une statistique en loi puissance, caractéristique du mode de propagation. Ce phénomène est attribué à une modification du couplage spatial entre les dislocations, due à la concentration de contraintes internes. La combinaison de ces études avec l’analyse de l’émission acoustique a mis en évidence une influence de la microstructure sur la compétition entre un facteur aléatoire et la synchronisation des dislocations. Enfin, l’étude par corrélation d’images a permis d’observer une interrelation entre l’instabilité PLC et la formation de la strictionThe elaboration of new alloys sustains a strong interest to the phenomenon of unstable plastic flow, or the Portevin–Le Chatelier (PLC) effect, caused by interaction of dislocations with solute atoms. Moreover, this effect attracts interest as a rich example of self-organization in dynamical systems. It is associated with complex patterns of stress serrations related to nucleation and motion of deformation bands in the deforming material, and requires understanding of self-organization of dislocations. Plastic deformation of Al-Mg alloys is prone to instability in a wide range of experimental conditions. For this reason, binary Al-Mg alloys served for a long time as model objects for investigation of the PLC effect. At the same time, the practical use of binary Al-Mg alloys is limited because of their low strength. A significant improvement of their properties can be achieved by additional alloying, in particular, leading to precipitation. Further, extensive grain refinement could be a key technique used to produce tough and high- strength materials. However, there exists very limited and often contradictory information on the PLC instability in fine-grained Al-Mg alloys containing precipitates. The objective of the present thesis was to investigate specific features of the PLC effect in AlMg-based alloys with and without nanoscale particles, both in coarse-grained and fine-grained states, the latter obtained by severe plastic deformation. Using local extensometry methods, particularly the image correlation technique, these studies revealed an unusual persistence of the propagation of deformation bands in alloys with precipitates and/or fine grains. This dynamic mode is observed in a wide range of strain rates, whereas it only appears at high strain rate in model Al-Mg alloys. Moreover, the analysis of statistical distributions of stress drop amplitudes revealed a tendency to power law statistics characteristic of the propagation mode. This phenomenon was attributed to a modification of the spatial coupling between dislocations due to the concentration of internal stresses. The combination of these studies with the acoustic emission analysis uncovered an influence of the microstructure on the competition between a random factor and the dislocation synchronization. Finally, the study by the image correlation made it possible to observe an interrelation between the PLC instability and the neck formation

O uso das ligas de alumínio em aplicações estruturais tem crescido consideravelmente nas últimas décadas. Nos transportes, a baixa massa específica do alumínio resulta em uma alta razão resistência/ peso, favorecendo a fabricação de aviões, trens e automóveis. Com a crescente preocupação em reduzir a emissão de gases poluentes, vem tornando-se promissora a alternativa de reduzir o peso dos veículos substituindo peças convencionalmente produzidas com outros materiais por peças de alumínio. As ligas tratáveis termicamente da série 6xxx são frequentemente escolhidas para estas aplicações. Assim, para que o emprego dessas ligas seja otimizado, é importante um estudo mais detalhado de suas propriedades mecânicas, principalmente sob solicitações cíclicas. Neste trabalho foram estudadas ligas de Al-Si-Mg que são amplamente utilizadas nas indústrias automotivas, em especial na fabricação de componentes de carroçarias para caminhões e ônibus. Foi realizado o estudo do comportamento em fadiga de baixo ciclo e fadiga multiaxial das ligas AA6005 T6, AA6063 T6 e AA6351 T6, fornecidas pela CBA (Companhia Brasileira de Alumínio) visando caracterizar e comparar essas ligas em sua microestrutura, propriedades de tração e fadiga. As propriedades básicas de fadiga foram determinadas por meio do método ε-N (fadiga de baixo ciclo) e os ensaios foram realizados com controle de deformação total, onda triangular e taxa de deformação 0,005 seg-1. As análises dos laços de histerese elasto-plástica permitiram inferir sobre aspectos microestruturais relacionados às propriedades mecânicas das ligas estudadas. O comportamento em fadiga multiaxial foi avaliado por meio de carregamentos combinados axial-torcional em fase e fora de fase. Para ajustar os dados experimentais obtidos, foram testados alguns dos modelos encontrados na literatura. Os cálculos baseados no modelo de plano crítico, proposto por Fatemi e Socie, apresentaram resultados satisfatórios. Também foram realizadas análises microestruturais e fractográficas para as três ligas. As superfícies de fratura dos ensaios de fadiga multiaxial mostraram resultados diferentes de acordo com o carregamento adotado. A avaliação comparativa das três ligas estudadas fornece subsídios para fundamentar a seleção de materiais para a fabricação de componentes estruturais para o setor automotivo.The use of aluminum alloys in structural applications has grown considerably in recent decades. In transportation, the low density of aluminum results in a high strength-to weight ratio, proving attractive for production of aircrafts, trains and automobiles. With a growing concern for the reduction of pollutant gas emissions, aluminum alloys are becoming a promising alternative to diminish vehicle weight through the replacement of conventionally produced parts made from other heavier materials for aluminum parts. The heat treatable alloys from the 6xxx series are often chosen for these applications. Therefore, to optimize the employment of these alloys, a detailed study of their mechanical properties, primary under cyclic solicitations is necessary For the present study Al-Mg-Si alloys were chosen, which are widely used in automotive industries, particularly in the manufacturing of components for trucks and bus bodies. The low-cycle fatigue behavior and multiaxial fatigue of the three following aluminum alloys: AA6005 T6, AA6063 T6 and AA6351 T6, provided by CBA (Brazilian Aluminum Company), were assessed, with the aim of characterizing and comparing these alloys in their microstructure, tensile properties and fatigue. The basic properties of fatigue were studied by ε-N method (low cycle fatigue) and the experiments were performed with total strain control, triangular waveform and with a constant deformation rate of 5.0x10-3 s-1. The analyses of hysteresis loops elasto-plastic provided insight about microstructural aspects, related to mechanical properties of the studied alloys. Multiaxial fatigue behavior was assessed in combined axial-torsion loading in phase and out of phase. To adjust the experimental data, some models found in the literature were tested. Calculations based on critical plane model, proposed by Fatemi Socie, presented satisfactory results. Furthermore, microstructure analyses and fractography were performed for these three alloys. The fracture surface of multiaxial fatigue assays demonstrated different results according to the adopted loading. Comparative evaluation of the three studied alloys provides support for the selection of materials for manufacturing structural components of the automotive sector.

This work examines the effects of solution heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of A356 aluminum alloy. Tensile bars were molten to tensile tests and solution treatment in several conditions of time and temperature were performed. The A356 alloy with different weight percentage of magnesium and with its respective as-casting specimens were also analysed to evaluate the heat treatment. To evaluate the results tensile tests, alloy hardness and matrix microhardness, and metallographic analysis and fractographs were performed. The microstructural analysis allowed to evaluate the evolution of microstructural transformation. Results changes were attained to alloy with less percentage of Mg (0,15wt. %). However, to the alloy with higher percentage of Mg (0,3wt. %) the results indicated increase in all properties analysed, increasing the time and the temperature of solution. Only to the temperature of 570°C, a property drop of ultimate tensile strength and elongation were observed. The best properties were obtained to 10 hours of the solution in 540°C, as a result of a better distribution and coalescence of the Si particles. The fractographs showed changes on the fracture mode in function of increase in the solution time and temperature, evidencing the increase of the ductility observed through mechanical tests. The kind of alloy fracture and the matrix fracture mode and Si particles were evidenced in fracture surfaces.
Este trabalho avalia os efeitos do tratamento térmico de solubilização sobre a microestrutura e as propriedades mecânicas da liga de alumínio A356. Foram fundidos corpos de prova para ensaios de tração e realizados tratamentos de solubilização em diversas condições de tempo e temperatura. A liga A356, com diferentes percentuais em peso de magnésio e com suas respectivas amostras brutas de fundição, também foram analisadas para avaliação dos efeitos do tratamento térmico. Para avaliação dos resultados foram realizados ensaios de resistência à tração, de dureza da liga e microdureza da matriz e, análises de metalografias e fractografias. As análises microestruturais permitiram avaliar a evolução da transformação microestrutural. Variações nos resultados foram obtidos, para liga com menor teor de Mg (0,15% em peso). Porém, para liga com maior teor de Mg (0,3% em peso) os resultados indicaram aumento em todas as propriedades analisadas, com o aumento do tempo como da temperatura de solubilização. Apenas para temperatura de 570°C uma queda nas propriedades de máxima resistência e alongamento foram observadas. As melhores propriedades foram obtidas com 10 horas de solubilização a 540°C, como resultado de uma melhor distribuição e coalescimento das partículas de Si. As fractografias mostraram alterações no modo de fratura, em função do incremento no tempo e na temperatura de solubilização, evidenciando o aumento de ductilidade observada através dos ensaios mecânicos. O tipo de fratura da liga, e o modo de fratura da matriz e das partículas de Si também foram evidenciados pelas superfícies de fratura.

The effect of silicon particle size and morphology on the deformation and fracture
behavior of a binary aluminum silicon casting alloy was studied. Castings of eutectic
composition were solidified either slowly without modifiers, or quickly with strontium
modification to produce two different as-cast microstructures. Solution treatment of the
castings was performed for various lengths of time at 540°C to further differentiate the
structures. Quantitative image analysis was used to describe the size and shape of the
silicon particles. Samples were tested in both tension and compression.
Particle sizes were in a region where, neither continuum plasticity nor dislocation
based models can fully predict the effect of the silicon phase on the deformation behavior
of the alloy. The deformation and fracture behavior were dependent on the size and
shape of the silicon particles. Damage, in the form of particle cracking, degraded the
strength of the alloy and reduced ductility. This was compared to a simple analytical
model which describes the effect of damage on flow in a composite material.
