Abstract

The review presents the features of fatigue crack propagation in composite materials (CM) based on aluminum alloys reinforced with silicon carbide (SiC) particles with different volume content under cyclic loading conditions. The influence of the volume content and size of SiC particles on the growth rate of a fatigue crack in  CM under the action of cyclic loads is considered. The results of studying the influence of the CM structure on the growth rate and development of cracks during cyclic tests are presented.
