Selection of Aluminium Alloys by Fatigue Properties: A Method of Comparing the Performance of Different Alloy Types under Fatigue Conditions for which Complete Data are not Available

Abstract

WHEN selecting alloys for use in structures whose life would be limited by fatigue, the choice is greatly aided by consideration of fatigue tests on simple test‐pieces in which the effects due to stress‐raisers, fretting, temperature, etc., are dealt with under idealized conditions.
