摘要
A previous experimental study revealed fatigue life reduction in Al 7075-T6 cold expanded fastener holes exposed to 120 degrees C for 1 h. The obtained experimental evidence indicated a residual stress reduction associated with material softening at elevated temperatures, termed as thermo-mechanical stress relaxation. In order to identify and characterize the potential features of this phenomenon, FE analysis is carried out in this study and a detailed body of evidence is provided for occurrence of a time-independent thermo-mechanical residual stress relaxation around cold expanded fastener holes due to exposure to elevated temperature. The results of FE simulation demonstrate a good agreement with experimental results obtained earlier. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
