Abstract

Aluminium is the most widely used material for applications such as cooking utensils, food processing equipment, storage tanks, aircraft components, pressure vessels, ladders, railings, frames, tool boxes, truck bumpers components in truck and automobile industries, which requires strength and good formability. In this study, it is aimed to present the experimental results of studies conducted on strain hardenable characteristics of non-heat treatable casted and forged aluminium alloys using tensile test.. Pure aluminium, Aluminium alloy 5052 and Aluminium alloy 3003 are the chosen materials for the work. Strain hardening conditions selected are H12 and H14 on specimens as per ASTM standards. This paper involves graphs of true stress v/s strain as per the results obtained from tensile test on different heat treatment conditions.
