Item type:Publication, Access status: with files , Bolt Load Retention Response and Creep of AS41 Mg-Alloy(2010); This work studies the creep and bolt load retention (BLR) response of permanent mould AS41 Mg-alloy. Results show that fastener clamp load loss of AS41 is due to creep of the alloy at bolted joint during service. Creep of AS41 Mg-alloy is dominated by grain boundary sliding and dislocation climb depending on the stress and temperature under consideration. Pore development around solute segregated regions was found to influence creep deformation. BLR of AS41 was successfully modelled using compliance-creep relationship and FEA approach.Publicationtype: Doctoral Thesis1762 1621
