The experimental results indicate that with the increase of pre-rolling, the density of the T1phase and the uniformity of the S′distribution and the microhardness, tensile strength, and yield strength of the alloy increase and at the same time the FCG rate increases, and thus the fatigue life is reduced. It was also found that the normalized stress intensity factor of elastic modulus(E) can be applied to correlate the FCG rate of pre-rolled 2195 Al-Li alloy with constant C and K parameters.展开更多
