We need rather a lot of space because we do everything at " Birlec" Works, from the drawings to the final painting of the finished furnace. W e think the Customer gets a better job that way, and in fact our order book proves it! By having the whole of our design and manufacture under one roof, and handling every aspect of the work OURSELVES, we can ensure that each detail contributes to our main object-SATISFIED users.

    HIDUMINIUM TECHNICAL DATA HIGH DUTY ALLOYS LTD SLOUGH F oreword Extensive research carried out in recent years, com­ bined with an increasing demand for " H ID UM IN IUM " high tensile aluminium alloys, has necessitated the revision and increase of the series of data sheets pre­ viously issued by the Company. As before, our aim is to place before designers and constructors the fullest possible particulars regarding the physical and mechanical properties of " H ID U M IN IU M ," which will enable them to select the materials most suitable for their requirements and to adapt their designs in accordance with the outstanding character­ istics of this range of alloys. " HIDUMINIUM" is produced under conditions of strict scientific control and progressive inspection and a staff of expert Metallurgists, Research W orkers and Technicians is always ready to give advice on all problems connected with the use of these alloys. Fresh data, as it is revealed by further research, will be issued on additional sheets. This will ensure that all information contained in this volume is up-to-date and may thus be referred to at all times with complete confidence.

  • Damage Tolerance Behaviour of Integral Aircraft Structures Obtained by Stationary Shoulder Friction Stir Welding
    Damage Tolerance Behaviour of Integral Aircraft Structures Obtained by Stationary Shoulder Friction Stir Welding Vom Promotionsausschuss der Technischen Universität Hamburg zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor-Ingenieur (Dr.-Ing.) genehmigte Dissertation von Alessandro Barbini aus Pisa (Italien) 2021 1. Gutachter: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Norbert Huber 2. Gutachter: Prof. Dr.-Ing Xiang Zhang Vorsitzende: Prof. Dr. Erica Lilleodden Mündliche Prüfung: 3. Juli 2020 Abstract Research focusing on new ways to achieve weight reduction without sacrificing the safety performances of an aircraft is the subject of a constant push in the aeronautical industry. The use of riveting to join skin and stringer is highly optimised but in order to reduce structural weight, aside from the continuous development of new materials, it is important to use the already available materials in an efficient way. For this reason, friction stir welding (FSW) was looked at for many years as a suitable replacement alternative for riveting but the focus of the research was mostly driven with a material science point of view. Therefore, the development of a new solid-state welding technology ensuring good material properties and, at the same time, being investigated as a structural joint is still a necessity. The present-study addresses the development of a new procedure for joining skin and stringers made of dissimilar aluminium alloys by stationary shoulder friction stir welding (SSFSW), which is to be applied in primary aircraft structures. Three different joint configurations were developed, and their performances were compared. At first, a fundamental analysis of the correlation between the two main process parameters, welding speed and rotational speed on heat development and joint formation, was conducted.

    COMPLEX & INCREMENTAL STRESS CREEP OF A HIGH STRENGTH ALUMINIUM ALLOY AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURES (ALLOY: HIDUMINIUM RR58 SPECIFICATION DTD 731) by SURINDAR BAHADUR MATHUR Thesis presented in the Department of Mechanical Engineering for the Award of the Doctor of Philosphy in Mechanical Engineering of the University of London. Mechanical Engineering Department Imperial College of Science and Technology mAec.19 70 (University of London) London. ABSTRACT A theory for creep rates under complex and incremental stresses is deduced from experimental data concerning complex creep at elevated temperatures for the test material HIDUMINIUM RR 58 - Specification DID 731. The most important results are for tubular specimens tested at 150°C and 250°C under incremental loads. The analysis of results relates to steady state creep only. Modified relationships in stress equivalence and strain equivalence are proposed to account for thermal softening, polygonization, recrystallization and the resulting exaggerated flow in the direction of the applied shear. (The original equations are based on the hypothesis of Von Mises). A further relationship is suggested between the immediate total energy of distortion and the subsequent creep work rate. Results of the static tests and the results of the tests for creep behaviour under complex loading are presented and compared with the results of static torsion and simple incremental torsion creep tests on the basis of the proposed equations. An appendix describes the complex creep testing machine, furnace, extensometers

  • 29 the Term Short Crack I . Reserved for a Crack Whose
    29 The term short crack I . reserved for a crack whose maximum dimensions are small relative to either:- 1 . some microstructurally important dimension (eg. grain size), ie a continuum mechanics limitation, or 2 . some local plastic field with which the crack might be associated, or 3. simply physically small. Short crack growth below the threshold stress intensity found for large cracks is not surprising if one considers that cracks generally initiate from very small initial defects. Since AK is proportional to Aaja sarly crack growth must involve very low stress intensity ranges [107], This does not, however, explair <hv short cracks grow faster than long tracks, nor why some material exhibit extensive short crack behaviour while others exhibit practically none [2 , 108]. To summarise, short crack behaviour comprises two aspects :- 1. Short cracks grow faster than long cracks under nominally identical stress Intensity ranges (AK) and at values below the 1 _.ng crack threshold. 2, Short cracks exhibit transient dips and peaks in the growth late curve. 2.5.1 Reason* for faster short crack growth Various reasons have been suggested to explain faster short crack growth, however, many are limited to certain situations and they may not occur concurrently. 1. Short cracks initially proceed along the most favourable slip band system, or along "soft spots" (crystal logr -' 'ically favourable growth) [80, 45], 2. Where plastic damage occurs prior to initiation in alloys in whicn initiation takes a long time, more rapid growth might be expected in the high damage aren [109], 3. Crack tip strains and crack tip opening displacements for short cracks have been reported to be larger than for long cracks [79, 80, 110-113]; at lov stresses these differences can exceed an order of magnitude.

In more recent aircraft, this alloy has been largely replaced by others Multiaxial fatigue such as 7075 which present greater fatigue resistance. Forgotten for a time, AA2618 comes back in new aircrafts Roughness for structural parts submitted to fatigue loading at high temperature because of only a slight decrease of fatigue Crossland criterion resistance of this alloy compared to room temperature fatigue resistance. In this paper, a complete fatigue characterization of 2618-T851 aluminum alloy is presented: fatigue tests under uniaxial tensile or torsion cyclic loadings, with mean tensile or shear stress have been realized; fatigue tests under combined tensile-torsion, in or out-of-phase have also been conducted as well as some combined tensile-torsion-internal pressure fatigue tests.

SIR: I have the honor to submit the Ninety-eighth Annual Report of the Director of the Mint, since the Mint became a Bureau within the Department of the Treasury in 1873. Annual reports of Mint activities have been made to the Secretary of the Treasury since 1835, pursuant to the act of March 3, 1835 (4 Stat. 774). Annual reports of the Mint have been made since it was established in 1792.
