... considerations in design becomes important. Also, to determine the component's long-term tenability, fatigue behavior must be investigated. This paper aims to investigate the fatigue life of aluminum 6061-T6 alloy under uniaxial loading using experiments and finite element simulation. Design/methodology...

... Aluminum 6061-T6 alloy Aluminum (Al) is the second most abundant element present on the earth’s surface (Fernando et al., 1993). The commercial application of Al in early times was used to create novelty items such as serving trays, cooking utensils and mirror frames. Over time...
