Robert Sołtysiak, Maciej Kotyk, Joanna Małecka

TL;DR
This paper compares the fatigue behavior of AA2519 aluminum alloy under different loading conditions and proposes a new model to describe its cyclic properties.
Contribution
A new analytical model for cyclic stress-strain curves is proposed, showing good agreement with experimental data.
Findings
A criterion was established to divide fatigue properties into two parts based on strength coefficient and strain hardening exponent.
The proposed model aligns well with experimental results from both low and high fatigue life tests.
Plastic strain, cyclic modulus, and fractography were analyzed to understand material behavior under variable loads.
Abstract
The article presents an analysis of the outcomes for AA2519 aluminum alloy exposed to variable loads. The variable loads were implemented with a strain control program consisting of incremental steps and increasing/decreasing multiple steps. Tests were conducted at higher and lower strain ranges and yielded lower (LFL test) and higher (HFL test) fatigue life, respectively. The values of plastic strain, cyclic modulus, cyclic yield strength, and fractography were analyzed. Based on the analysis of the test results, a criterion was established for the division of the tested fatigue properties into two parts for which the strength coefficient and strain hardening exponent were determined. An analytical description of the cyclic stress–strain curve for the entire range of results obtained from the LFL and HFL tests was proposed. Compared to other available models describing material…
