Anisotropic Plasticity and Fracture of Three 6000-Series Aluminum Alloys

The influence of microstructure on plasticity and fracture of three 6000-series aluminum alloys is studied with emphasis on the anisotropy caused by the extrusion process. Tension tests on smooth and notched specimens are performed in different directions with respect to the extrusion direction, whe...
