Abstract

It is known that subrecrystallization plastic deformation increases the strength of a metal. The amount of strengthening that may be acquired can be approximated using a strainhardening equation and a simple given strain. The purpose of this thesis was to determine the effective strain for predicting strainhardening for annealed aluminum subjected to completely reversed strain combinations.
