Fatigue Behavior of As-extruded AZ31 Magnesium Alloy
Behaviors of cyclic stress response and cyclic deformation
fatigue life as well as fracture mechanism were identified for as-extruded AZ31 magnesium alloy through total-strain-amplitude controlled fatigue testing and analysis on fracture surface of fatigued specimens.The results indicate that the as-extruded AZ31 alloy exhibits significant cyclic strain hardening and stretch-compression asymmetry in cyclic deformation
and the relationship between elastic strain amplitude
plastic strain amplitude and reversal to failure can be described by the Basquin and Coffin-Manson equations
respectively.In addition
it is found that fatigue cracks are generated and propagated in a transgranular mode.
