COMPRESSIVE AND TENSILE CREEP OF 7075-T6 AND 2024-T3 ALUMINUM-ALLOY SHEET

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4194020

Results are presented of compressive and tensile creep tests of 7075-T6 and 2024-T3 aluminum-alloy sheet at 300, show that compressive and tensile creep are about the same for both materials in the primary and secondary creep regions except for 2024-T3 aluminum-alloy sheet at 300 and 375 deg F where the compressive creep was less. At 300 deg F, the compressive creep was markedly less than tensile creep. (auth)
