Cast Aluminum Alloys

Cast aluminum alloys are an important group of materials which find wide application in the automotive industry. Insufficient studies have been carried out to date with regard to the mechanical performance of the aged A354 alloy. Therefore, the present work investigates the Quality index charts with the purpose of setting the limits of the tensile properties, as well as for comparing the mechanical behavior of cast alloy A354, to delineate the effect of the solution treatment applied. Tensile properties upon artificial aging in the temperature range of 155–350oC for times ranging from 2 to 100 hours are also investigated. The results showed that the use of quality index charts is a satisfactory method for presenting tensile test results and, for assessing the effect of solution and aging treatment conditions subjected to the modified and grain-refined A354 alloys. It is also observed that the quality index, Q, is more sensitive to variations in the tensile ductility than to tensile strength.

Alloy Castings

The relationships between tensile properties and fatigue life in cast aluminum alloys have been reviewed. Strong relationships were found between fatigue life and the quality factor, QT, that uses tensile ductility to characterize structural quality for a number of cast aluminum alloys. The model developed by the authors to estimate the Basquin parameters as a function of QT is introduced along with a step-by-step guide on how to apply it to cast aluminum alloys. This model provides much more reliable estimates for cast aluminum alloys than other models available in the literature.
