Abstract: | Cyclic loading of wire‐reinforced aluminium matrix composite extrusions Aluminium matrix composite extrusions reinforced with wires featuring high strength and stiffness represent an innovative materials concept for lightweight structures. The use of reinforcing elements should improve the mechanical properties and hence enhance the performance of the lightweight structures. Composite extrusions made from the aluminium alloy EN AW‐6060 reinforced with reinforcing elements made from the spring steel 1.4310 and the cobalt‐base alloy Haynes 25 were examined under cyclic loadings which are of vital importance for the desired applications. Initially, load controlled multiple step tests at a load ration of R = ‐1 allowed for the determination of the cyclic stress‐strain‐curve. Afterwards, lifetime predictions were determined from these results by using mechanical models proposed by Morrow and Basquin, which were reviewed Woehler tests without mean stress. Furthermore, light and electron microscopy served for the clarification of damage and failure mechanisms. The investigations have been carried out with varying materials, configurations and surface treatments of the reinforcing elements. The investigations strived for the identification of the parameters’ influence on the lifetime behaviour to optimize the materials systems regarding the fatigue behaviour. |
