The fatigue and tensile properties of A356 aluminium alloy wheels in various post cast conditions

M.Ing. === This dissertation investigates the fatigue and monotonic tensile properties of cast aluminium alloy wheels in various post cast conditions. It was found that monotonic tensile properties could be used in the original universal slopes method of Manson to predict the fatigue properties as a...
