The corrosion and corrosion fatigue behavior of the coated and uncoated samples were examined by performing accelerated corrosion tests. The corrosion resistance of AZ31B samples with and without coating was investigated based on ASTM B117 standard salt spray with a concentration of 5% NaCl at 36 degrees C, 100% relative humidity. The corrosion fatigue of bare and coated round samples was examined by producing a thin film of 3.5% NaCl solution on the surface of the fatigue samples via integrating a corrosion chamber into a rotating bending fatigue testing machine. Pure Al coating provided significant corrosion protection for AZ31B in 5% NaCl fog environment by improving its corrosion resistance from 90% average weight loss in 33 days for bare samples to <10% average weight loss in 90 days of continuous corrosion cycles. However, pure Al coating did not improve the corrosion fatigue strength of magnesium and samples with and without coating showed similar corrosion fatigue trends. Test results in salt solution showed fatigue life reduction of 88% when compared with test results in air. The microstructure examination of samples failed under cyclic load showed early cracking of Al coat which allowed the electrolyte penetration into Mg substrate creating a localized corrosion and premature failure. The early cracking was attributed to the lower fatigue strength of pure Al compared to AZ31B.Saudi Basic Industries Corporation Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada through Automotive Partnership Canada program || APCPJ 459269-1

Linear elastic solution of an axisymmetric boundary value problem is used as a basis to generate its inelastic solution. This method treats the material parameters as field variables. Their distribution is obtained as a part of solution in an iterative manner. Two schemes of updating material parameters are discussed and compared. A procedure for calculation of residual stress field is presented. Application of the method to autofrettage is presented. Residual stress calculation based on actual material curve, isotropic and kinematic hardening models, and variable Bauschinger effect factor (BEF) is carried out. It is concluded that consideration of dependency of BEF on plastic strain makes significant changes to residual hoop stress near the bore for low-level autofrettage. However, this dependency is insignificant for high-level autofrettage. Results obtained here are shown to be in good agreement with experimental and finite element results.
