High-temperature tensile behaviour, fracture mechanism and constitutive modelling of additively manufactured AlSi9Cu3 alloy under varying strain rates

Key Points

• Tensile behaviour is significantly influenced by varying strain rates, impacting material integrity.
• Key findings showed fracture mechanisms change under different temperatures and strain conditions, highlighting adaptability.
• Analysis involved additive manufacturing techniques to create the AlSi9Cu3 alloy, followed by mechanical testing.
• Understanding these behaviours supports better design and utilization of high-temperature materials in engineering.
