Figure 10
The bar chart illustrates the mechanical properties of alloys 2024 T1, 2024 T2, 6061 T1, and 6061 T2. The properties evaluated include impact energy in joules, elongation in percent, and area reduction in percent. For impact energy, 6061 T1 records the highest value, followed by 6061 T2, while 2024 T1 shows the lowest. The elongation values remain relatively similar across all four alloys without significant differences. For area reduction, 6061 T1 again shows the highest reduction, followed by 6061 T2, with 2024 T1 the lowest. Statistical significance is indicated with markers, showing a strong difference in impact energy and a moderate difference in area reduction.ANOVA of impact energy, elongation and area reduction of Aluminium 2024-RAM2C with T1 (orange) and T2 heat treatment (blue) as well as 6061-RAM2C T1 (dark blue) and T2 (purple).
