Influence of grain orientations on the initiation of fatigue damage in an Al-Li alloy.
The variation in microstructure and texture in a rectangular bar extruded from a billet of spray-cast 8090 Al-Li alloy has been examined. The fine grain size of the as sprayed billet and the moderate extrusion ratio ( approximately 25 : 1) were seen to cause geometric dynamic recrystallization (GDR)...
