Study of Fatigue Mechanisms in Aerospace Structural Materials.

Abstract

This report summarizes the results of a five-year, three-phase study of (1) fatigue crack growth and load interaction modeling in aluminum alloys, (2) the effect of microstructure on susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement in titanium alloys, and (3) micromechanisms of fatigue crack growth in titanium matrix composites.
