Fatigue Life Prediction of an Aluminium Alloy Automotive Component Using Finite Element Analysis of Surface Topography
A 6082 aluminium alloy has been characterized with regard to the influence of surface roughness on fatigue strength. Fatigue life testing of smooth specimens was used to establish reference curves for the material in extruded and forged T6 condition. The extruded material was found to have better fa...
