Bendability enhancement of an age-hardenable aluminum alloy: Part I — relationship between microstructure, plastic deformation and fracture
Abstract
In this study, the bendability of two 1 mm thick sheets of monolithic AA6016 and composite AA6016X alloys is investigated using a series of wrap-bend tests, with emphasis on understanding the relationship between microstructure, the nature of plastic deformation and fracture behavior. The composite AA6016X alloy consists of a central core of AA6016 sandwiched between 100 μm thick clad layers of AA8xxx series aluminum alloy, processed using …
