A Review on Aerospace Materials and Metallurgy
Abstract: Aerospace metalworking is comparable to the foundation of both space travel and transportation. It involves the scientific design and application of metals and alloys to offer components with the strength required for flight and the ability to survive harsh environments. Although other alloys feature cobalt or iron as the main ingredient, nickel makes up most of alloys used in aeronautical applications. When exceptionally high strength is required in moderate-temperature settings, …

Impact of Fracture in Geometrical, Material, and Load Rate Characteristics on J-Integral
Abstract: The present study investigates the influence of load rate, geometrical parameters, and material properties on the J-integral behavior of AA2050-T84 aluminum-lithium alloy using three-dimensional elastic–plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM) analysis. Finite element simulations were carried out using the ABAQUS software to evaluate crack driving forces in compact tension (C(T)) specimens under various mechanical and thermal conditions. The study focuses on the combined effects of strain rate, temperature-dependent strain hardening, specimen thickness …
