    In the automotive industry, the use of stamped aluminium alloy components has become a very common occurrence. For the appropriate design of these components, it is necessary to know how the manufacturing process a ects the material properties. In the first place, high plastic strains ("p) can be generated during the stamping process, which can result in a change in the residual stress and mechanical properties in the plastically deformed areas. Furthermore, if a last coat of paint that is usually subjected to a thermal cycle, characterized by temperature (T) and exposure time (t), is applied, it can also influence mechanical behaviour. Consequently, this paper studies how both processes a ect the mechanical behaviour of an aluminium alloy of the 5000 series, commonly used in these types of components. In particular, the mechanical properties such as the yield stress at 0.2% ( 0.2), the ultimate tensile strength (sut) and the engineering strain at break (e f ) have been analysed. To achieve this, a response surface technique, based on the design of experiments, has been used. The response surfaces obtained allow for the prediction of mechanical properties 0.2, sut and e f for any combination of values of t, T and "p.Junta of Castile and Leon through grant ref. BU053U1

    La presencia de las uniones soldadas en muchas estructuras hace que las inspecciones que se le realicen sean muy importantes. En este trabajo se realiz贸 la inspecci贸n mediante un l铆quido penetrante a un grupo de estas uniones. Fue necesario sustituir el limpiador y el revelador pues no se contaba con estas sustancias. La sustituci贸n realizada con nafta y polvo de tiza respectivamente fue posible, debido a que los resultados obtenidos concuerdan con los que plantean la bibliograf铆a y con comparaciones realizadas con uniones que ten铆an defectos conocidos

    Las uniones soldadas son un componente importante de una estructura, por lo que siempre es necesario conocer la respuesta de las mismas sometidas a cargas c铆clicas. El objetivo de este trabajo es obtener la curva S-N de una uni贸n soldada a tope de acero AISI 1015 y electrodo E6013 como material de aporte. Los ensayos a fatiga se realizaron de acuerdo a la norma ASTM en una m谩quina universal MTS810. Se utilizaron probetas de secci贸n rectangular. El ciclo de carga fueasim茅trico a tracci贸n, con un coeficiente de asimetr铆a de 0,1. Se obtuvo que la uni贸n estudiada tiene un l铆mite de resistencia a la fatiga de 178 MPa, a un punto de corte de 2 039 093 ciclos.Palabras claves: uni贸n soldada, fatiga, curva S-N, AISI 1015, electrodo E6013._______________________________________________________________________________AbstractWelded joints are an important component in structures, by this reason is necessary to know the behaviour of these elements under cyclic loads. The objective of this work is to obtain the S-N curve of the butt welded joint of AISI 1015 steel and electrode E6013 as the contribution material. Fatiguetest was realized within the ASTM standard in the MTS810 testing machine. Rectangular cross section specimens was used. Cyclic loads was asymmetric tensile and the asymmetry ratio used was 0,1. In this study was obtained the fatigue limit equal to 178 MPa, at the cut point of 2 039 093 cycles.Key words: welded joint, fatigue, S-N curve, AISI 1015 steel, electrode E6013
