Durante esse processo deformações locais são introduzidas nas estruturas por meio da expansão dos rebites devido sua conformação. A deformação plástica causa uma expansão no rebite e consequentemente na estrutura circundante onde o mesmo foi inserido. Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar o efeito da anisotropia na propagação da deformação induzida em corpos de prova de ligas 2024 que passaram pelo processo de rebitagem, em chapas de alumínio termicamente tratadas. O experimento avaliou como a geometria do grão, relacionadas ao tamanho e forma dos mesmos, assim como o efeito do tratamento térmico, influenciam na expansão diametral. Foram empregados corpos de prova de liga de alumínio 2024 com tratamento térmico T3 e TO, comumente utilizadas pela indústria aeronáutica, em diferentes direções de grãos, longitudinal e transversal, onde foram cravados rebites e avaliado o alongamento dos corpos de prova pelo efeito da rebitagem. Os resultados obtidos comprovam que a anisotropia exerce uma influência significativa no fator expansão e que a deformação plástica na direção transversal de laminação foi aproximadamente 60% maior que na direção de laminação para os dois tratamentos térmicos analisados. Também foi constatado que o tratamento térmico do material influencia no fator expansão. Verificou-se que a expansão dos corpos de prova recozidos foi o dobro nas direções transversal e longitudinal quando comparados com os corpos de prova de condição envelhecida / The riveting process is wide used at Aerospace industry during airplane fuselage construction. During this process, local deformations are introduced in the structures by the rivet expansion, due the plastic deformation. The plastic deformation makes the rivet expand inside the hole and consequently, the structure around the rivet expand too. The goal of this research is to analyses the anisotropy effect in the squeezing force propagation in specimens of 2024 alloys that were submitted to the riveting process, in aluminum plates heated treatment. The research analyzed the grain geometry related to size and form, and how the heat treatment effect influences the hole diameter expansion. It was used specimens of aluminum alloy 2024 T3 and TO, commonly used in aerospace industry, in different grains directions, longitudinal and transversal. Rivets were installed and the specimen stretching was analyzed. The results prove that the anisotropy have a significative influence in the expansion factor, the plastic deformation in the transversal rolled direction was about 60% bigger than rolled direction for the two heat treatment analyzed. Also, it was verified that the material heat treatment influences the factor expansion. According the results the expansion in the relieved specimens condition were the double in the transversal and longitudinal direction than the aging specimens condition

In this work, the mechanism of the corrosion behavior of laser-treated aluminum is studied. Two different laser techniques are used to fabricate the samples, direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) and direct laser writing (DLW), using nanosecond laser sources. The DLIP treatment uses a two-beam optical configuration producing line-like periodic structures. The DLW technique is employed to produce non-periodic structures on the Al-surface with the same cumulated fluences as in DLIP. The surface topography is analyzed by confocal microscopy, and the formation of oxide layers is investigated by scanning electron microscopy of cross-sections produced using a focused ion beam. Wetting measurements performed on the laser-treated samples exhibit a contrasting behavior, leading to either superhydrophobic or superhydrophilic states. In the case of the DLIP treatment, the static water contact angle is increased from 81° up to 158°, while for DLW, it decreases to 3°. Electrochemical tests demonstrate a decreased corrosion rate after laser treatment. Additionally, findings indicate no correlation between wettability and corrosion reduction. Therefore, the improvement in corrosion resistance is mainly attributed to the oxide layer formed by laser treatment. Although similar corrosion rates are achieved for both treatments, surfaces produced with DLIP can be beneficial when additional surface properties are required.
