The nonlinear ultrasonic technique has been known to be more sensitive to minute variation of elastic properties in material than the conventional linear ultrasonic method. In this study, the ultrasonic nonlinear characteristics in the heat-treated aluminum alloy (Al-Mg-Si-Cu) have been evaluated. For this, the specimens were heat treated for various heating period up to 50 hours at three different heating temperatures: 250°C, 300°C, and 350°C. The ultrasonic nonlinear characteristics of each specimen were evaluated by measuring the ultrasonic nonlinear parameterβfrom the amplitudes of fundamental and second harmonic frequency components in the transmitted ultrasonic wave. After the ultrasonic test, tensile strengths and elongations were obtained by the tensile test to compare with the parameterβ. The heating time showing a peak in the parameterβwas identical to that showing critical change in the tensile strength and elongation, and such peak appeared at the earlier heating time in the higher heating temperature. These results suggest that the ultrasonic nonlinear parameterβcan be used for monitoring the variations in elastic properties of aluminum alloys according to the heat treatment.

The 6xxx aluminum alloy is the first choice for automotive lightweight forgings due to its excellent performance, high strength and low weight. The production time of current aluminum alloy forging generally exceeds 10 h. To reduce the production time of traditional aluminum alloy forgings, 6082-T6 aluminum alloy is used in the forming process. The effects of different heating temperatures (200 °C, 300 °C, and 400 °C) and deformation degrees (30%, 50%, and 70%) on the deformability and properties of 6082-T6 billets have been investigated. The results show that when the heating temperature is higher than 300 °C, the compressive deformation resistance obviously decreases with increasing strength. With compression at 200 °C and 70% deformation with short heating time, the strength of the sample is close to the T6 (solution treatment and artificial aging) state. A large number of dislocations and subgrains were introduced due to the compression deformation, and their amounts decreased as the heating temperature increased. The size of the precipitated phase β′′ slightly grows under a heating temperature of 200 °C. However, when the heating temperature is higher than 300 °C, the precipitated phase gradually changes from β′′, which is optimal for the strengthening effect, to β′ and β, which offer weaker strengthening. Therefore, under a lower heating temperature of 200 °C for 5 min, a large number of dislocations are introduced with the β′′ precipitated phase, leading to higher strength with less heat treatment time.

Contact solution treatment (CST) of Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys can shorten solution time to within 40 s in comparison with 1800 s with traditional solution treatment using a heating furnace. Heating temperature is the key factor in solution treatment. Considering the short heating time of CST, the ultra-high solution temperature over 500 °C of Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys was studied in this work. The effects of solution temperatures on the microstructures and the mechanical properties were investigated. The evolution of the second phases was explored and the strengthening mechanisms were also quantitatively evaluated. The results showed that solution time could be reduced to 10 s with the solution temperature of 535 °C due to the increasing dissolution rate of the second phase and the tensile strength of the aged specimen could reach 545 MPa. Precipitation strengthening was the main strengthening mechanism, accounting for 75.4% of the total strength. Over-burning of grain boundaries occurred when the solution temperature increased to 555 °C, leading to the deterioration of the strength.

The multiaxial yield behaviors of 1100-0 aluminum, 70:30 brass, and an overaged 2024 aluminum alloy (2024-T7) have been investigated for a variety of prestress histories involving combinations of normal and shear stresses. Von Mises effective prestrains were in the range of 1.2–32%. Prestress paths were chosen in order to investigate the roles of prestress and prestrain direction on the nature of small-strain offset (ε = 5 × 10−6) yield loci. Particular attention was paid to the directionality, i.e., translation and distortion, of the yield locus. A key result, which was observed in all three materials, was that the final direction of the prestrain path strongly influences the distortions of the yield loci. Differences in the yield locus behavior of the three materials were also observed: brass and the 2024-T7 alloy showed more severe distortions of the yield locus and a longer memory of their entire prestrain history than the 1100-0 aluminum. In addition, more “kinematic” translation of the subsequent yield loci was observed in brass and 2024-T7 than in 1100-0 aluminum. The 2024-T7 differed from the other materials, showing a yield locus which decreased in size subsequent to plastic straining. Finally, the implications of these observations for the constitutive modeling of multiaxial material behavior are discussed.
