Abstract:

The fatigue crack propagation behavior of 2024 aluminum alloy used in aerospace was studied under air and corrosion environment, and the effect of ultrasonic rolling on the fatigue crack propagation behavior was analyzed and compared. The results show that the surface grain of the material is refined by ultrasonic rolling treatment to form a plastic deformation layer with a thickness of 60-70 μm, and the microhardness is increased by 45% compared with the base metal, and the gradient decreases from the surface to the interior of the material. The initial rate of fatigue crack growth was decreased and the growth rate of fatigue crack growth was increased by ultrasonic rolling treatment. Ultrasonic rolling can significantly improve the fatigue performance in both environments, but the improvement is more significant in the air environment, because the saline environment increases the initial crack growth rate and reduces the growth rate of crack growth rate.
