Training high-strength aluminum alloys to withstand fatigue
The fatigue performance of high strength aluminum alloys is notoriously poor, leading to design limitations for transportation structures. Here the authors design microstructures to exploit the mechanical energy of fatigue to dynamically heal the microstructural weak points and improve the high cycl...

| description | The fatigue performance of high strength aluminum alloys is notoriously poor, leading to design limitations for transportation structures. Here the authors design microstructures to exploit the mechanical energy of fatigue to dynamically heal the microstructural weak points and improve the high cycle fatigue life. |
