Abstract
The fatigue tests of self-piercing riveted joints of AA5052 aluminium alloy were carried out by axial tension-tension loading mode. The microfracture characteristics of the specimen were analyzed by a scanning electron microscope. The fatigue property as well as the fretting damage failure mechanism of SPR joints with different parameters (distance, stress ratio, load level and riveting direction) were studied. The results show that the fatigue cracks occur in the fretting damage area where stress concentration exists. The form and the distribution of the fretting debris are important factors that affect the fatigue property of the joint. Within the value range, fatigue life increases with the increase of stress ratio, however, decreases with the increase of loading level adopted. The fatigue property of joints differs between different riveting directions. Better strength property could be obtained when the riveting direction reverses.
