Abstract

Two semi-empirical models have been developed that allow the yield strength and tensile strength of 3105 aluminum alloy sheet, cold rolled to various H1x tempers, to be predicted with reasonable accuracy directly from the ingot composition. Expansion of these models also enables the calculation of the percent cold reductions required to produce tensile properties specified for these tempers also from the ingot composition.
