Abstract
The fatigue behavior of three different AA2524 alloy sheets respectively with dominant Goss+Cube-grains, Cube-grains and Cube+Brass-grains was characterized in present work. Results showed Goss+Cube-grain sheet possessed a much lower fatigue crack propagation (FCP) rate than Cube-grain sheet and Cube+Brass sheet. The Cube+Brass sheet had the greatest fatigue crack propagation rate among the three kinds of commercial sheet in spite of the grain size smaller than Cube-grain sheet. EBSD detection results indicated Goss-grains had a twist component boundary or great tilt angle component boundary with the neighboring grains, thereby retarding fatigue crack propagation in fatigue Stage II more effectively. Apparently, the high intense Goss-grains were responsible for the enhanced fatigue crack propagation resistance of AA2524 alloy.
