Abstract

Al–Cu–Mg alloys are widely used in various applications, especially engine components, where it is subjected to elevated temperatures during operation. Prolonged exposure of these components to elevated temperatures gradually leads to creep and relaxation phenomena. This study aims to investigate the effects of temperature on stress relaxation and creep behavior of the aluminum-silicon alloy EN AC-Al Si12CuNiMg. Furthermore, this study evaluates the effect of temperature on the rheological model parameters of this alloy. Experimental tests were conducted to investigate the stress relaxation and creep behavior of this alloy at different temperatures of 150°C, 250°C, and 350°C. The rheological model parameters were then determined from the obtained experimental data. The Standard Linear Solid Model (SLSM) was used to fit the stress relaxation and creep curves obtained from the experiment. Overall, the results indicate that increasing temperature significantly affects the stress relaxation and creep behavior of the investigated alloy, with higher temperatures leading to increased relaxation and creep rates. Additionally, the rheological model parameters of the alloy were found to vary with temperature.
