Abstract

Mechanical properties of every material play important role during material selection for any mechanic system. The main mechanics property which is crucial for material selection is Toughness. The paper present some of the aspects in problems of the toughness and fatigue for Aluminum Alloys. The paper also presents the set of the ASTM anf British
Standards which describe procedure in analysing and determining toughness and fatige properties for this kind of the alloys.
