Abstract:
Abstract Modern industry expects aluminum products with new, unusual, and well-defined functional properties. Last years we are able to notice constant development of aluminium alloys. In food industry, power engineering, electrical engineering and building engineering, flat rolled products of 1XXX series aluminium alloys are used.8XXX series alloys registered in Aluminium Association during last 20 years may be used as an alternative. These alloys have very good thermal and electrical conductivity and perfect technological formability. Moreover, these materials are able to obtain by aluminium scrap recycling. Fundamental alloy additives of 8XXX series are Fe, Si, Mn, Mg, Cu and Zn. Aluminium alloying with these additives makes it possible to obtain materials with different mechanical ale electrical properties. In this paper, the analysis of alloy elements content (in 8XXX series) effect on chosen properties of material in as cast and after thermal treatment tempers has been presented.

Abstract:
Most traditional aluminium casting alloys are based on the aluminium-silicon eutectic system because of its excellent casting characteristics. However, the solidus in this system does not exceed 577 °C and the major alloying elements used with silicon in these alloys have high diffusivity in aluminium. Therefore, while these elements enhance the room temperature strength of the alloy, they are not useful at elevated temperatures. Considering nickel-base superalloys, whose mechanical properties are retained up to temperatures that approach 75% of their melting point, it is conceivable that castable aluminium alloys can be developed on the same basis so that they are useful at temperatures approaching 300 °C. In this publication, we present the thought process behind developing a new castable aluminum alloy that is designed specifically for such high temperature applications and we present the alloy’s measured castability characteristics and its elevated temperature tensile properties.

Abstract:
Aluminium matrix composite is a type of innovative technical material that have applications in aerospace, automotive, biotechnology, electronics, and a lot more. Non-metallic reinforcements can be injected into an aluminium alloy to provide advantages over base metal (Al) alloys. Better mechanical properties, improved microstructure, and corrosion resistance are the benefits that have been noticed upon reinforcements. The proportion of reinforcement, kind, size, and forms of aluminium matrix are all important factors in improving mechanical and tribological properties. Investigation in the creation of highly advanced tailored materials using liquid and solid-state processes and the impact it has on the properties and application are the subject of this work. The current research summarizes recent breakthroughs in aluminium-based composites and other particle reinforcement effects. The experiment findings revealed that strengthening the aluminum matrix with reinforcements increased mechanical properties and improves the microstructure. Also, stir casting was seen to be the most popular liquid metal approach because of its cost effectiveness and processing parameters which could easily be adjusted and monitored. It is concluded that aluminum matrix composites have greater mechanical characteristics, microstructure, and corrosion resistance than unreinforced aluminum alloys.

Chemical compositions and microstructures affect on mechanical – physical and working properties of aluminium and aluminum alloys. Transition elements, such as Ti, V, Cr, Zr in solid solution greatly reduce the electrical conductivity of aluminium and its alloys. For reduction of detrimental effects of transition elements, Al-B master alloys are added into molten aluminium to occur reactions of boron and transition elements to form diborides of titanium, vanadium, chromium and zirconium, which are markedly insoluble in molten aluminium, then these transition elements have an insignificant effects on conductivity. In addition, Al-B master alloys is also used as a grain refiner of aluminium and aluminium alloys. Aluminium borides particles in Al-B master alloys act as substrates for heterogeneous nucleation of aluminium and its alloys. Al-B master alloys are prepared from low cost materials, such as boric acid H3BO3 and cryolite Na3AlF6, by simple melting method, easily realize in electrical wire and cable factories.

Abstract:
Technology development and new grades of alloys creation put before construction materials the number of requirements in range of durability and reliability of created constructions. Receivers expect materials with high strength properties, low production cost of the finished product, availability, corrosion resistance and low specific gravity. So the specific needs of customers mean that studies are constantly associated with the exploration of new materials and technologies that could meet made requirements [1,2,. In large scale this demand is met through the use of non-ferrous metals and their alloys. Selection of appropriate manufacturing techniques and the use of heat treatment procedures allow to obtain materials with better mechanical properties. Here the leading role has the aluminium and its alloys. Due to specific mechanical properties aluminium based materials are used in almost each field of industry. In aircraft industry they are used for the manufacture of fuselage elements in automobile industry the light alloys are used to make cylinder blocks, and other elements of internal combustion engines. In the construction industry they are used to manufacture windows and doors, as well as beautiful self-supporting lightweight facades. While the aluminium alloy products such as films or cans are also used in the food industry. The combination of physico-chemical and mechanical properties of aluminium alloys makes them the optimal solution for innovative design, thanks to them engineers can provide high strength associated with very low gravity. This allows to minimize the costs of subsequent use of the product, and while achieving good strength parameters. As part of this work the analysis of strain rate and temperature impact on mechanical properties of the tested alloy will be carried out. The experimental studies conducted in the temperature range of recrystallization (test temperature: 400°C, 450°C, 480°C, 500°C) using two strain rates 1 s-1 and 0,1 s-1. This paper present the analysis of the application of high-temperature deformation changes in structure mainly caused by the dynamic recrystallization processes, which determine the optimal parameters of AlCuMg deformation process [. The proposed methodology of the research work made it possible to determine the effect of temperature-velocity parameters to changes in mechanical properties (inter alia: microhardness measurements) and changes in the structure of the material, which are closely related to the level achieved in mechanical properties.

Abstract:
Zinc-aluminium alloys are alloys whose main ingredients stay zinc and aluminium. Other alloying elements clasp magnesium and copper .Zinc Aluminum Alloys over the past decayed are occupying attention of both researches and industries as a promising material for tribological applications. At this moment commercially available Zinc-Aluminium alloys and bearing bronzes due to good cost ability and unique combination of properties. They can also be deliberated as competing material for cast iron, plastics and even for steels. It has been shown that the addition of alloying elements including copper, silicon, magnesium, manganese and nickel can improve the mechanical and tribological properties of zinc aluminum alloys. This alloy has still found limited applications encompassing high stress conditions due to its lower creep resistance, compared to traditional aluminum alloys and other structural materials. This has resulted in major loss of market potential for those alloy otherwise it is excellent material. The aim of this paper is to measure the coefficient of friction and wear under different operating conditions for material with silicon content. Then wear equation will be found out for all the materials experimented under various conditions. In this paper there is discussion of the effect of Silicon on tribological properties of aluminium based Zinc alloy by experiment as well as Ansys software based and compares the same.

Abstract:
The effects of yttrium (Y) on microstructures and mechanical properties of aluminium alloy were investigated in detail by scanning electronic microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrum (EDS),X-ray diffraction and tensile test. The results show that the trend of alloys tensile strength and elongation with increasing of the Y content is a broken line. When the Y content is increased up to 0.30%, the tensile strength and elongation are 105MPa and 10.50% respectively, meanwhile, the fractograph exhibited typical ductile dimple fracture pattern. Then the alloy performance is best. The high strength of aluminum alloy is attributed to the size of Al2Y phase. Addition of Y above 0.30% in aluminum alloy may generate more the coarse Al2Y particle. It can induce the decrease in the material performance.

Aluminium and its alloys are used in fabrication because of their low weight, good corrosion resistance and weldability. Pure aluminium is soft and therefore not suitable for structures, which require strength. The Present investigation aims to compare the mechanical properties of non-heat treatable Aluminium alloy AA5083 and heat treatable. Aluminium alloy AA7020 using Tungsten Inert Gas welding. 5556A filler were used to weld AA7020 alloy and 5183A filler for AA5083 alloy. Effect of pulsing mode over conventional mode of GTA process were also investigated for AA5083 alloy. In this work, gas tungsten arc welding process has been selected because it is low heat input process. Low heat input process has selected because AA7020 and AA5083 were low melting point material. The alternating current (AC) power source has been selected because of better cleaning action and high heat concentration on the materials can be avoided. Mechanical testing like tensile test, impact test, bend and hardness test have been critically analysed and the properties were summarized and correlating with microstructure and SEM fractographs.

Besides these factors, natural ageing, i.e. the holding time between quenching and the starting of artificial treatment at ambient temperature was observed to be significant affect mechanical properties of the aluminium alloys. This effect on semi solid processed aluminium alloys was lack of investigations as the semi solid process produces T6 treatable and weldable components. The present paper focuses on the change regularity of hardness and precipitate behaviour of semi-solid 319S aluminium alloy under different natural ageing (NA) treatment additional to standard T6. Density and morphology of hardening precipitates are analysed using TEM, and the influence mechanism of NA during T6 heat treatment will be discussed. The results show that NA has a positive influence on mechanical properties of the rheo-cast 319S alloy.

Heat-treated Al-Si alloys are widely used in the automotive, military, marine, electrical, food and chemical industries. This alloy exhibits high-strength properties used in corrosion-resistant homes. However, this alloy has low mechanical properties and a large granular structure when cast. The properties of aluminium alloys depend primarily on the microstructure. It is very important to achieve a smooth structure. The formation of fine and equivalent grains depends primarily on the amount of hardening, the addition of basic alloys (grain cleaners), the mixing and processing of alloys. Aluminium alloys are an important component of light metals used in industry. Al-Si alloys are essential for automotive, aerospace, marine and engineering applications. Al-Si alloys have excellent physical and mechanical properties. These alloys offer low weight, excellent corrosion resistance, easy machining, heat treatment, excellent casting ability and excellent machining performance. The mechanical properties of these alloys depend primarily on the size, shape and distribution of Si and Al particles. Al-Si alloy produces coarse α-Al dendrites and shark eutectic silicon. Fine structures are known to provide good mechanical properties and reduce casting defects. During the casting process, a fine-grained structure can be obtained by adding a lower alloy to the melt.

Aluminium, being the second most abundant metal in earth’s crust, has emerged as an important metal in human civilization’s development. It has served as an excellent substitute for many conventional materials like wood, copper, iron and steel. Now a days, more Aluminium is consumed (on a volumetric basis) than all other non-ferrous metals/alloys including copper.Aluminium and aluminium alloy are gaining huge industrial significance because of their good combination of mechanical, physical properties over the base alloy. In some few recent years the use of metal matrix composite material increases very rapidly due to their high weight to strength ratio, low density, low thermal expansion coefficient, low maintenance and high temperature resistance. Metal matrix composites are widely used in aerospace and automotive engine components. The aluminum alloys are reinforced with Al2O3, B4C and TiC and fabricated by stir casting, centrifugal casting, and powder metallurgy process. In the fabricated metal matrix composites some different tests were conducted to show mechanical properties, micro-structural characterizations of materials were also done. When composite subjected to heat treatments then it significantly affects the micro-structural developments of composite causing to relieving of stress.

Selective laser melting (SLM) is a powder bed fusion type metal additive manufacturing process which is being applied to manufacture highly customised and value-added parts in biomedical, defence, aerospace, and automotive industries. Aluminium alloy is one of the widely used metals in manufacturing parts in SLM in these sectors due to its light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance properties. Parts used in such applications can be subjected to severe dynamic loadings and high temperature conditions in service. It is important to understand the mechanical response of such products produced by SLM under different loading and operating conditions. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the latest research carried out in understanding the mechanical properties of aluminium alloys processed by SLM under static, dynamic, different build orientations, and heat treatment conditions with the aim of identifying research gaps and future research directions.

In early years with the expansion of industries and growth of technology, the usage of aluminum and its alloys is also expanding. Therefore It is additionally utilized in aviation and vehicle industries because of their low thickness, good hardness property, great mechanical properties, better consumption opposition and low coefficient of extension when compared with other metals and alloy. The initial step of assembling in the aluminum combinations begins with the throwing strategy in light of the fact that the underlying throwing structure importantly affects the achievement of thermo-mechanical properties. The initial step of manufacturing in the aluminium alloys is the casting method . The casting structure has an important effect on the success of thermo-mechanical properties. The quality of aluminum amalgams can be dictated by its size and microstructure highlights of circulation all through the throwing procedure. In this way, it is essential to characterize throwing parameters of the aluminum compounds examples for controlling the microstructure properties and throwing abandons. This paper depends on the strategy to evacuate throwing abandons and improve the hardness of the aluminum composites.

Abstract:
Introduction. Replacing the material of monometallic motor-axial bearings currently manufactured from bronze to aluminium alloy is advisable to improve traffic safety due to the higher reliability and efficiency of such bearings.Materials and methods. This article studies the materials of monometallic motor-axial bearings, bronze and the proposed complex aluminium-tin alloys. Mechanical properties are determined by standard methods: tensile strength, relative elongation (ductility), Brinell hardness, impact strength. Antifriction properties (abradability, score resistance, wear resistance of the antifriction alloy and the steel associated with it, the heating temperature of the steel surface and the coefficient of friction) were determined according to the methods of the Railway Research Institute approved by JSC Russian Railways on the SMTs-2 friction machine. Bronze and three grades of aluminium alloys were tested with M-14V2 diesel oil, and bronze, B16 babbitt and one grade of aluminium alloy were tested with axial oil.Results. This research shows the possibility of replacing bronze with complex-alloyed aluminium alloys both in terms of economic indicators and antifriction properties. A comparison of mechanical properties is carried out, in most of which aluminium alloys are found superior or not inferior to bronze. The exception is ductility, in terms of which bronze surpasses the proposed alloys.Discussion and conclusion. According to the complex of service characteristics obtained in laboratory studies, it seems expedient to replace bronze with complex aluminium antifriction alloy. The final decision on such a replacement could be made after bench and operational tests of motor-axial bearings on diesel locomotives.

Abstract:
Thixoforging is a type of semi-solid metal processing at high solid fraction (0.5<fs<1). 7075 aluminium alloys have been used as a feedstock for thixoforging in order to investigate thixoformability of a high performance aluminium alloy at high solid fraction. Higher solid fraction of 7075 alloy is less sensitive to temperature, avoids metal splash at high speed and allows laminar flow at high speed. Hot tool combined with lubricant tool coating are used to slow down the solidification rate of the high solid fraction metal by decreasing thermal exchanges with the tool. Improved thermal and forming parameters [1-2] will be applied to produce an automotive component by thixoforging and mechanical properties have been measured from tensile samples. High mechanical properties are obtained after T6 thermal treatment.

Abstract:
In this paper, the results from studies regarding near-eutectic Al-Si alloys with Sn as an alloying addition are presented. In most Al-Si alloys, tin is regarded as a contaminant; thus, its amount is limited to up to 0.3 wt.%. The few studies that can be found in the literature regarding the behaviour of tin in aluminium alloys suggest the beneficial effect of this element on selected properties. However, these results were obtained for hypereutectic Al-Si alloys or wrought aluminium alloys. In our studies, the influence of tin contents of up to 1.7 wt.% was determined on the AlSi10 alloy. Thermal analysis, measurements of the mechanical properties of the cast and heat-treated alloy, metallographic observations (light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy), and EDS (X-ray energy dispersive spectrometry) measurement allowed us to fully describe the effect of tin on the aluminium alloy. The results of the thermal analysis showed changes in the range of the α-Al solution crystallisation and the α+β eutectic through a decrease in the alloy’s solidification start point and eutectic solidification point. As a result, the elongation of the alloy was more than double in the AlSi10Sn1.7 alloy, with an A5 value of 8.1% and a tensile strength that was above 200 MPa.

Abstract:
Aluminium matrix composites offer improved damping properties than other metals and its alloy. Generally pure metals and its alloys may have fairly good mechanical properties but falls short in damping properties. Aluminium matrix composites are becoming important in aerospace automobile and marine applications due to its god damping properties. The present investigation is concerned with the damping capacity of iron oxide (Fe2O3) reinforced aluminium matrix composite. The composites were fabricated with 2%, 4% and 6%, by weight of iron oxide with varied particle of size 40 μm and 500 nm in equal proportions using stir casting process. From the results obtained the 500 nm size with 4 wt% of iron oxide showed improved dynamic properties. The iron oxides reinforced with aluminum matrix are found to be new substitutes for the existing materials with low damping properties.

Abstract:
Abstract: Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state joining process that uses the frictional heat generated by the rotating tool to soften the metals to form the joint. It is an effective technique for joining dissimilar aluminum alloys and finds its application in various fields such as aerospace and automotive industries. FSW process is energy efficient and environment friendly process. This FSW can produce joints with higher mechanical and metallurgical properties. Formerly, FSW was adopted for low melting metals like aluminum alloys. The various FSW parameters play a vital role in determining the quality of the welded joint. The parameters included in the study of different tool pin profiles (circular, pentagon and taper). FEA analysis will be performed for friction stir welding of Aluminum alloy 5052 and AA6063 at different tool pin profiles using ANSYS. This paper mainly focuses on studying the effect of different tool pin profiles on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the dissimilar AA5052 and AA6063 aluminum alloy joints. The weld quality characteristics like microstructure, micro-hardness, and tensile properties of the joints are analyzed and presented for three different tool pin profiles. It is observed from the result that the joint fabricated using three different tool pin profiles exhibits the better mechanical properties when compared to other joints. Index Terms: Friction stir welding, Aluminium alloys, AA5052, AA6063, Dissimilar welding.

Abstract:
Solidification is one of the major issues that was faced during the fusion welding of dissimilar non-heat treatable and heat treatable aluminium alloys. To overcome this issue Friction Stir Welding played a very vital role, since it is a solid state welding process. In the current study, dissimilar friction stir welding was carried out between non heat-treatable aluminium alloy AA5083-H111 and heat-treatable aluminium alloy AA6061-T6. The microstructural analysis and the mechanical properties of the dissimilar friction stir welded aluminium alloy AA5083-H111 and AA6061-T6 have been investigated. Both optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy was used to evaluate the microstructural features. The elemental analysis was carried out using SEM-EDX. The tensile properties are studied using Universal Testing Machine. Hardness at various zones of the welded joints was measured using Vicker’s Hardness Testing Machine. The mechanical properties of the friction stir welded joints were correlated with the microstructure of the dissimilar welded joints.

Abstract:
The recent trend of using aluminium alloys instead of steel has reached the transportation industry, where increasingly, more parts are made of aluminium. An example is the belt pulley, applied for combustion engines for energy transmission. This part should be strong, durable, and lightweight. Aluminium-silicon alloys are a good choice, moreover, even when the surface is anodised, also because of their moderate inertia control and excellent wear characteristic during mechanical operations. Since aluminium is lightweight yet mechanically durable and anodised, it is an ideal belt pulley to use, especially in high-temperature operations. However, the main question is what type of Al-Si alloy, casting method and anodisation method should be used in terms of energy adsorption, having long-term properties for a lifetime, has to be applied. For this reason, this paper presents the influence of the chemical composition, casting method and anodising parameters on the structure and thickness of the anodic layer produced on aluminium alloys, as well as on the albedo value as an ability to reflect or absorb light. The aluminium alloys, AlSi12Cu1 and AlSi9Cu3, were used as research materials, obtained using different casting methods. The goal of this work was to determine the optimal combination of the anodisation conditions and materials for maximising the reflectivity factor of the surface, as a very important factor, determining the energy amount absorbed by an anodised surface. For further improvement of these surface properties as well as for enhancement of the properties and strengthen the material produced with different aluminium alloys production methods, different alloying additives were added. In addition, the mechanical properties of the surface layer were measured, where a remarkable hardness increase was obtained, and the best combination in form of AlSi12Cu1 high pressure cast was found with the highest albedo factor among all tested surface variants.

The usage of modern high strength aluminium alloys are getting more remarkable in several industry sectors mostly the fabrication of light weight structures, such as vehicles, railway transport systems, aerostructures and building constructions. The weldability problems of these alloys are more complex than the steels with similar strength. Therefore weldability problems must be analyzed very accurately, by the help of the modern physical simulation. By knowing the difficulties of the weldability of high strength aluminium alloys the proper parameters of the welding technology can be defined. This article represents the investigation of a certain weldability problem of 6082T6 aluminium alloy with the aim of physical simulation and welding experiments with gas metal arc welding and pulsed current technology.

Abstract:
Al–Si alloys are among the most popular casting metals. Two-component aluminium alloys with silicon are not suitable for direct use after melting. Subject to their silicon content, Al Si alloys have a coarse-grained eutectic phase, and alloys with more than 13% Si content also feature large crystallites or β-phase needles. The β-phase is hard, but also fragile. Large crystallites are good planes of division, and they reduce the mechanical properties of alloys.In this study, the Al-9% Si alloy was refined with a sodium modifier. The modifier was added to the mould by the in-mould method. The modifier's influence on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy was presented graphically. The results of the analysis indicate that the compound modifier influenced the evaluated properties of the Al-9%Si hypoeutectic alloy.

Abstract:
Cast aluminum alloys are an important group of materials which find wide application in the automotive industry. Insufficient studies have been carried out to date with regard to the mechanical performance of the aged A354 alloy. Therefore, the present work investigates the Quality index charts with the purpose of setting the limits of the tensile properties, as well as for comparing the mechanical behavior of cast alloy A354, to delineate the effect of the solution treatment applied. Tensile properties upon artificial aging in the temperature range of 155–350oC for times ranging from 2 to 100 hours are also investigated. The results showed that the use of quality index charts is a satisfactory method for presenting tensile test results and, for assessing the effect of solution and aging treatment conditions subjected to the modified and grain-refined A354 alloys. It is also observed that the quality index, Q, is more sensitive to variations in the tensile ductility than to tensile strength.

When the mischmetal content is increased up to 0.30%, the tensile strength and elongation are 115 MPa and 25.9% respectively, meanwhile, the fractograph exhibited typical ductile dimple fracture pattern. Then the alloy performance is best. Mischmetal added into the alloy can improve the mechanical properties of materials, but too much mischmetal will induce the decrease in the material performance.Becase it may generate more the coarse Al11(Ce ,La)3particle.

Abstract:
Adequate knowledge of mechanical properties and their statistical description is the basis for performing reliable verification of design methods and design of structures in general. The probabilistic design approach implemented in Eurocodes requires statistical data on all variables used in the design procedure. Although aluminium was introduced in structural Eurocodes more than four decades ago (ENV), the statistical database of mechanical properties is still inadequate. To provide a reliable statistical background, data collection was performed concerning aluminium products mainly found in the European market, within the last 20 years regarding certificates from the aluminium industry and 30 years regarding data from the research community. The collected data include aluminium alloy series 1xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx, and 7xxx, mainly extruded, and relevant mechanical properties such as 0.2% proof strength, ultimate strength, Young’s modulus, and Poisson’s ratio. They were fit to distributions, and relevant fractiles were determined, along with an analysis of nominal to characteristic and design value ratios. Variation of ratios obtained shows that that the majority of nominal values are economical and reliable. However, certain adjustments to nominal values are required to achieve a uniform reliability level in terms of the choice of alloy and temper.
