Influence of heat treatment on impact, hardness and fatigue strength of 6061 aluminium alloy

This paper studies the effects of various heat treatments on toughness, hardness and fatigue strength of aluminum alloy 6061. The alloy specimens were heat treated in the furnace at different high temperatures and holding times; and then cooled in different media (water and oil). Furthermore, the wa...
