Abstract

High strength aluminium alloy AA7075 (Al–Zn–Mg–Cu) is a precipitate hardenable alloy widely used in the aerospace, defense, marine and automobile industries. Use of the heat treatable aluminium alloys in all these sectors is ever-increasing owing to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio and reaso...
