Abstract
The mechanical behaviour of the commercial aluminium alloys EN AW-5182, EN AW-6016 and EN AW-7021 is investigated at temperatures ranging from 298 to 77 K and strain rates from 1.7 × 10__ to 6.6 × 10_ s-1. A device which allows testing at cryogenic temperatures is developed and demonstrated, where the specimens are subject to uniaxial tensile loads. The influence of a solution heat treatment for precipitation hardenable alloys is shown. The strain hardening coefficient is determined and mapped in terms of the experimentally investigated uniform elongation. The experimental data of tested aluminium alloys are compared with EN AW-1050A-H14, which is used as a reference. The effect of the Portevin-LeChatelier (PLC) effect on ductility and strength is discussed. The Ludwik relationship is adapted to describe materials showing a PLC-effect.
