Short-Transverse Tensile Fracture Behavior of Thick AA2219 Plate - Effects of Theta (Al2Cu) Particle Size and Distribution

An investigation was conducted to obtain a better understanding on the microstructural characteristics of 5-inch-thick AA2219-T87 plate material and the mechanism that led to the unexpected low ductility in the short-transverse (ST) orientation. Materials characterization techniques were utilized to observe the microstructure of fractured tensile specimens and remnant plate material. The mechanism and cause of low ST ductility in the thick plate material is presented and discussed in this report.

Landau Damping of Transverse Waves in the Exosphere by Fast Particle Fluxes

We have investigated the Landau damping of transverse waves propagating in the thermal exospheric plasma, by fast particle fluxes which also exist in these regions. The most intense non-thermal fluxes so far detected are those of the auroral producing electrons and protons measured by McIlwain. We find that these fluxes may considerably damp the propagation of whistler modes through some regions. The damping of hydromagnetic waves in the exosphere by this mechanism is negligible.
