The Bauschinger effect in a particulate reinforced Al alloy
Abstract
An experimental characterization of the Bauschinger effect in a particulate reinforced Al alloy revealed two important features: (1) the magnitude of permanent softening was small; (2) transient softening was significant and developed non-linearly with plastic strain. The Bauschinger effect (and associated internal stress) in these materials is dominated by relaxation processes which include plastic flow in the matrix and damage accumulation. …
