Corrosion fatigue crack arrest in aluminium alloys: basic data

Constant amplitude low stress Intensity fatigue crack growth for 2024-T3 and 7475-T761 aluminium alloys In laboratory air, sump tank water and synthetic seawater was Investigated. Corrosion fatigue crack grouwt retardation and arrest occurred In both sump tank water and synthetic seawater, resulting In higher AKth values than In air. Crack...
