Light metal alloys are extensively used in automotive, aerospace, aircraft, and military sectors since their lightweight leads to reduced energy consumption, increased fuel efficiency, and better environmental protection. In the present situation, nanomaterials are the potential candidate for weight saving in the structural application and can meet stringent government norms. Nanomaterial was heat-treated in the furnace to about a certain temperature and time and then normalized for strengthening. The heat-treated nanomaterial undergoes different forging processes, namely, hot forging and cold forging, using a certain capacity’s hydraulic press. Hence, in this work, an extensive study on the influence of the prestrain annealing, the corrosion rate on differently treated samples, and the effect of sensitization heat treatment on the nanomaterial was done.

The development of novel light metal alloys represents an important task in the further optimization of technical materials. Multi-component systems with more than 4 metals are very promising to outperform currently existing alloys, but lack significant research in systems not dominated by transition metals to date. In this work, alloys containing the elements Al, Cu, Mg and Zn were produced using magnetron sputter deposition. A detailed structural investigation using electron microscopy provided valuable insights into the influences of different metals and their relative proportions in the alloy on material properties.

Advanced light metals have recently attracted the interest of the aerospace and automotive industry. The need for accurate description of their cyclic inelastic response under various loading histories becomes increasingly important. Cyclic mean stress relaxation and ratcheting are two of the phenomena under investigation. A combined kinematic isotropic hardening model is implemented for the simulation of the behavior of Aluminum and Titanium alloys in uniaxial mean stress relaxation and ratcheting. The obtained results indicate that the model can perform well in these cases. This preliminary analysis provides useful insight for the evaluation of the models capabilities.
