In-situ electron microscopy studies on the tensile deformation mechanisms in aluminium 5083 alloy.

Observations during tensile testing revealed a sequence of surface deformation events. These included micro-cracking of large intermetallic particles, decohesion of small intermetallic particles from the matrix producing micro-voids and slip bands distribution. The fracture surface was characterised with closely spaced dimples, typical for aluminium alloys.enAluminium alloysIn situ tensile testsFracturesConference PresentationMotsi, G., Olumbani, P., Sono, T., & Shoke, L.
