For the evaluation of corrosion resistance of Al 6061-T6 alloy, Tafel method and immersion test was performed with Friction Stir Weld(FSW) and Gas Metal Arc Weld(GMAW). The Tafel and immersion test results indicated that GMA weld was severely attacked compared with those of friction stir weld. It may be mainly due to the galvanic corrosion mechanism act on the GMA weld.

Friction Spot Joining(FSJ) has a strong potential for aluminum alloy joining in automobile industries. The present paper focuses on the attempt to optimize the FSJ process for lap joining of A5052-H32 and A6061-T6 aluminum alloys. For A5052 maximum tensile shear strength has been observed for a tool rotating speed of 800rpm and for A6061 at 1000 rpm. Study on fracture modes of the tensile tested specimens of both A5052-H32 and A6061-T6 revealed, for high tensile strength values, plug fracture mode and lower tensile values, shear fracture mode. Above 2000 rpm distortion of the base metal, beside the tool shoulder was larger and plug fracture mode has been observed.

A cold roll-bonding process is applied to fabricate an AA6061/AA5052/AA6061/AA5052 layered sheet. Two AA6061 and one AA5052 sheets of 2mm thickness, 40mm width and 300mm length are alternately stacked, then reduced to a thickness of 2.0 mm by multi-pass cold rolling after surface treatment such as degreasing and wire brushing. The rolling is performed at ambient temperature without lubricant using a 2-high mill with a roll diameter of 400 mm at a rolling speed of 6.0 m/sec. The roll-bonded AA6061/AA5052/AA6061/AA5052 layered sheet is then hardened by natural aging (T4) and artificial aging (T6) treatments. The microstructure of the as-roll bonded and the age-hardened Al sheets was revealed by SEM observation; the mechanical properties were investigated by tensile testing and hardness testing. After T4 and T6 aging treatment, the specimens had a recrystallization structure consisting of coarse equiaxed grains in both AA5052 and AA6061 regions. The as-roll-bonded specimen showed a clad structure in which the hardness of AA5052 regions was higher than that of AA6061 regions. However, after T4 and T6 aging treatment, specimens exhibited different structures, with hardness of AA6061 regions higher than that of AA5052 regions. Strengths of T6 and T4 age-treated specimens were found to increase by 1.55 and 1.36 times, respectively, compared to the value of the starting material.

Due to the development of high-strength fibers and adhesives, it is now possible to repair cracked metallic plates by bonding reinforced patches to the plate over the crack. In this study, pre-cracked aluminum 6061-T6 alloy plates repaired with bonded carbon/epoxy composite patch are applied to investigate the effect of various patch shapes on the tensile strength and the fatigue behavior of the structure. A non-patch-boned cased and 2 type-50$\times$50, 40$\times$20 mm-composite patch-bonded cases were tested to obtain fracture loads and fatigue crack growth rate. The results showed that the patch-bonded repair improves the static strength by 17% and the fatigue life by 200% compared to non-repaired case. It means that patch-boned repair is more effective in the fatigue life. It was also revealed that the patching method along crack growth direction is more efficient in cost and weight reduction. By observing the fractography, patch-bonded repair specimens demonstrated zigzag fracture patterns compared with the non-patched specimens, which shows a typical ductile fracture.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the mechanical properties of 6061 Al foams, which were fabricated by P/M and multi-step induction heating method, and to build the database, which is needed for computer aided modeling or foam components design. Aluminium foams, consisting of solid aluminium and large quantities of porosities, is widely used in automotive, aerospace, naval as well as functional applications because of its high stiffness at very low density, high impact energy absorption, heat and fire resistance, and greater thermal stability than any organic material. In this study, 6061 Al foams were fabricated for variation of fraction of porosities (%) according to porosities (%)-final heating temperature ( $T_{a3}$) curves. Mechanical properties such as compressive strength, energy absorption capacity, and efficiency were investigated to evaluate the feasibility of foams as crash energy absorbing components. Moreover, effect of the surface skin thickness on plateau stress and strain sensitivity of the 6061 Al foams with low porosities (%) were studied.d.

본 연구의 목적은 극저온 열처리를 통해 Al6061 의 열처리 잔류응력을 제거하는 것이다. 이를 위해 유한요소해석을 이용하여 열처리 잔류응력을 예측하였으며, 열처리 조건에 따른 각 단계별 대류 열전달계수를 T6 와 극저온 열처리 실험을 수행하여 결정하였다. 예측된 잔류응력 결과는 X 선회절법(XRD)으로 측정된 잔류응력 결과와 비교하여 유한요소해석 결과의 타당성을 확인하였다. 또한 T6 와 극저온 열처리에 대해 각각 전기 전도도와 경도를 측정하여 기계적 특성을 평가하고 TEM 관찰과 XRD 회절 분석을 통해 석출물의 크기 및 성분을 파악하였다. 이를 통해 Al6061 의 T6 열처리와 비교하여 극저온 열처리를 적용함에 따른 잔류응력, 기계적 특성 및 미세조직변화를 조사하였다.

For the evaluation of corrosion resistance, Al 6061-T6 alloy was welded by Friction Sti. Welding(FSW) and Gas Metal Arc Welding(GMAW) evaluated by Tafel method and immersion test. The Tafel and immersion test results indicated that GMA weld was severely attacked compared with those of friction stir weld. It may be mainly due to the galvanic corrosion mechanism act on the CMA weld.

The numerical simulation of the Forming Limit Diagram(FLD) test was carried out to calculate the limiting dome height(LDH: ISO12004-2) for aluminum alloy sheet Al6061-T6. The finite element analysis was used as an effective method for evaluating formability and diagnosing possible production problems in sheet stamping operations. To predict fracture during the stamping process, several failure models such as Cockcroft-Latham, Rice-Tracey, Brozzo and ESI-Wilkins-Kamoulakos(EWK) criteria were applied. The predicted results were discussed and compared with the experiments for Al6061-T6.

본 논문에서는 실험적 연구를 통해 고체 입자의 크기가 입자 침식에 미치는 영향에 대해 논하였다. 고밀도 폴리에틸렌 입자를 최고 속도 마하 3으로 이단 가스건을 이용해 발사하였다. 발사된 입자를 Al1050, Al6061 T6 알루미늄 합금과 ZnS, 사파이어 적외선창 시편과 충돌시켜 입자침식을 일으켰다. 알루미늄 합금의 표면에는 크레이터가 생성되었다. 크레이터의 크기를 통해, 알루미늄 합금의 입자침식 저항성을 살펴보았다. 적외선창은 시편 표면에 크랙이 생성될 때까지 반복해서 시험하였다. 이를 통해 적외선창의 입자침식 저항 특성을 나타내는 충돌 임계 곡선을 정의할 수 있었다. 다양한 크기의 고체 입자를 이용한 입자침식 시험을 통해, 고체 입자의 크기가 재료의 입자침식 저항성에 선형적으로 영향을 끼친다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
