The authors researched the physical, metallurgical, and mechanical characteristics of A354
alloy (Al-Si-Mg-Cu) reinforced with 5, 10, and 15 wt% of fly ash metal matrix composites. A …

Five methods to estimate fatigue life from tensile data have been compared by using four
datasets from cast Al-Si-Mg-(Cu) alloys in the literature. Results have shown that none of the …

Tensile and fatigue life data for 319 aluminum alloy from seventeen datasets reported in four
independent studies from the literature have been reanalyzed. Analysis of fatigue life data …

The introduction of new design solutions of cast components to the powertrain systems of
passenger cars has resulted in an increased demand for optimization of mechanical …

In the present article, a heat-treated nano-clay-composite was fabricated by stir-casting to
improve high-cycle bending fatigue properties of AlSiCu aluminum alloys, which have been …

Direct aging a casting to a T5 temper may be a suitable, cost-effective alternative to two-
stage precipitation heat treatment schedules for some industrial applications. However, its …

Cast aluminum alloys are common in automotive and aerospace applications due to their
high strength-to-density ratio. Fracture data for cast aluminum alloys, such as fatigue life …

Multiaxial fatigue behavior of A319 casting alloys has been studied with strontium addition
and hot isostatic pressing (HIP). The tension-torsion fatigue tests were carried out by strain …
