In this paper, the mechanical properties of 36 aluminum alloy specimens subjected to repeated tensile loading were tested. The failure characteristics, stress-strain hysteresis curves and its corresponding skeleton curves, stress cycle characteristics, and hysteretic energy of specimens were analyzed in detail. Furthermore, the finite element model of aluminum alloy specimens under low-cycle fatigue loading was established and compared with the experimental results. The effects of specimen parallel length, parallel diameter, and repeated loading patterns on the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys were discussed. The results show that when the specimen is monotonously stretched to fracture, the failure result from shearing break. When the specimen is repeatedly stretched to failure, the fracture of the specimen is a result of the combined action of tensile stress and plastic fatigue damage. The AA6061, AA7075, and AA6063 aluminum alloys all show cyclic softening characteristics under repeated loading. When the initial stress amplitude of repeated loading is greater than 2.5%, the repeated tensile loading has a detrimental effect on the deformability of the aluminum alloy. Finally, based on experiment research as well as the results of the numerical analysis, the calculation method for the tensile strength of aluminum alloys under low-cycle fatigue loading was proposed.

The fatigue fracture and the microstructure of Al5Zn2Mg high strength aluminum alloy were observed by OM, SEM and TEM, and the low cycle fatigue properties were tested and analyzed. The results of experimentation show that the low cycle fatigue life of Al5Zn2Mg high strength aluminum alloy is 9.28×104 cycle in R=0.1, f=8Hz, and σmax=0.75σb. The tensile strength is 444MPa. The fatigue fracture is composed of the initiation zone, the propagation zone, and the sudden fracture zone, which is characteristic of a mixed-type fatigue fracture. The fatigue crack initiates in the surface of Al5Zn2Mg aluminum alloy sample, while there is no fatigue striation in fatigue crack propagation zone. The η′(MgZn2) transitional strengthening phases are precipitated in Al5Zn2Mg aluminum alloy, and mostly distributed in grain boundary. The diameter of η′ strengthening phase is fine, about is 10nm. There is none precipitated zone in width nearby the grain boundary
