Porous Materials (Note: only to continue research into porous material characterization)

3 recipients will receive $1,447,000. This is a continuing earmark.

Year Enacted: 2005

Description: This effort determined the corrosion-fatigue crack growth kinetics, studied the stress-corrosion cracking resistance and investigated the deformation processes and cracking mechanisms in bi-modal grain structured aluminum alloys. This work is essential to efforts to utilize new, very high strength aluminum alloys in future Navy and Marine Corp combat vehicles and ships. It provided data on fatigue and stress corrosion cracking on nanostructured aluminum alloys.
