Effects of Porosity on the Fatigue Behavior of Aluminum Alloy Weldments.

Abstract

It appears that the characteristics of the toe of the weld controls the fatigue crack initiation and propagation phenomena in the as welded specimens; and the size, and distribution and possibly location of the largest pore(s) control the fatigue crack initiation and propagation phenomena in weld reinforcement removed specimens.
