Abstract

Abstract This work considers the experimental data of tensile properties as a function of composition and processing of the three series of age-hardenable aluminium alloys, i.e. 2XXX, 6XXX and 7XXX, for designing new age hardenable alloy. Computational approach of designing better alloys with desired properties is employed with a target of breaking the barrier of class or series of age hardenable Al alloys. The alloy designed with the help of two evolutionary computation tools, viz. genetic programming and multi-objective genetic algorithm, having better combination of properties, i.e. strength and ductility, is experimentally developed. The designed Al-Zn-Cu-Mg alloy with complex aging characteristics and encouraging tensile properties seem to have the potential for further study.
