Abstract

Aluminium 6061 alloy is widely used in many applications due to the characteristics of good strength, heat treatable, corrosion resistance, lighter, etc. A broad range of structural applications and welded assemblies such as automotive part, truck component, railroad cars use the material Aluminium 6061 alloy. The material is usually exposed to various strain rates during use. In the present investigation an attempt has been made to study the effect of different crosshead speed. And it has been found that as the crosshead speed increases along with the strength of the material increases but the ductility decreases. Though creep always happen during component operating at high temperature or high stress level. Therefore, an attempt has been made to analyze the behavior of Aluminium 6061 alloy under different stress and temperature. And a relation has been established between the temperature and the elongation of material. The fractography of material is also being analyzed using SEM.
