The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of pre-aging and aging parameters (time and temperature) on the mechanical properties of Al-Mg-Zn (7075) alloys. Ultimate tensile strength, 0.5% offset yield strength and % elongation measurements were carried out on specimens prepared from cast and heat treated 7075 alloys. Aging treatments were carried out for the as solution treated ...

In this study, age hardenable material Aluminum alloy Al-7075-T6 (aged) was investigated for weldability. Al-7075-T6 plates were subjected to Al-7075-0 heat treatment and were joined with different welding parameters by means of friction stir welding method. After Joining, the parts which were subjected to tensile and bending tests were examined. As a result of the studies, it was observed that...

In the present study, an attempt has been made to investigate the influence of the forging parameters on cutting forces for different cutting speed, depth of cut, and feed rate during machining of Al 7075 alloy and Al 7075 alloy with short basalt fiber reinforced metal matrix composites. The experiments were conducted by using a lathe machine with tool dynamometer setup. KeywordForging effect, ...

The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of aging parameters (time and temperature) on the mechanical properties of Be-and/or Zrtreated Al-Mg-Zn (7075) alloys. Ultimate tensile strength, 0.5% offset yield strength and % elongation measurements were carried out on specimens prepared from cast and heat treated 7075 alloys containing Be and/or Zr. Different aging treatment were c...

The nucleation undercooling of TiB₂/7075 Al matrix composites, the microstructure observed after solidification at different cooling rate, and the size and distribution of TiB₂ particles were investigated. The experimental results have shown that the grain sizes of TiB₂/7075 Al matrix composites firstly decreased, then increased, and finally decreased again with the increase of TiB₂ content. Th...
