In this paper, the micro-damage mechanisms of 5A06 Al alloy weld joints have been studied under the condition of constant load and cyclic thermal load. The mechanical performance variation of the base material and its weld joint are analyzed and compared. Microstructure analysis reveals that the main damage mechanism in weld joints is the interior voids nucleation and growth. The voids distribution and evolution govern the damage process. Test results also show most fractures occur at HAZ near the welding fusion line. The development of these voids results in the performance deterioration of the weld joints under thermal cycling condition.

Abstract The results of comparative examinations of mechanical behaviour during fatigue loads and microstructure assessment before and after fatigue tests were presented. Composites of aluminium matrix and SiC reinforcement manufactured using the KoBo method were investigated. The combinations of two kinds of fatigue damage mechanisms were observed. The first one governed by cyclic plasticity and related to inelastic strain amplitude changes and the second one expressed in a form of ratcheting based on changes in mean inelastic strain. The higher SiC content the less influence of the fatigue damage mechanisms on material behaviour was observed. Attempts have been made to evaluate an appropriate fatigue damage parameter. However, it still needs further improvements.
