Effect of ring notch radius on the decohesion mode in AlSi alloys
Journal Title: Archiwum Odlewnictwa - Year 2009, Vol 9, Issue 2
Abstract
The article discusses the effect of the, determined by tensile test, non-linear characteristics of AlSi alloys on the value of the shape factor k for the three different sizes of the radius of the ring notch made on round specimens. Applying a numerical solution, the changes of stress in the notch plane were determined in function of the notch configuration and the value of instantaneous load. Tensile tests were carried out on round bars with ring notches. The appearance of fractures was examined on scanning images. Differences in notch effect observed in the linear-elastic and elastic-plastic model of material hardening in a non-linear mode were described.
