Creep Mechanisms of an Al–Cu–Mg Alloy at the Macro- and Micro-Scale: Effect of the S′/S Precipitate

A novel methodology combining the macro- and micro-creep techniques was employed to study the effect of S′/S precipitate growth on the creep mechanism of an Al−Cu−Mg alloy. An AA2524 alloy was pre-aged at 180 °C to obtain S′/S precipitates with variou...
