On the effect of combined thermal and mechanical loading on the microstructural evolution of an Al-Mg-Li alloy
In this work, the microstructural evolution during combined thermal and mechanical loading of an Al-Mg-Li alloy was studied. Hot tensile tests followed or preceded by annealing experiments without stress, and interrupted creep tests were carried out. The delta' and S-1 precipitate structure was characterized by TEM.
