Effect of grinding on plain fatigue and fretting fatigue behaviour of detonation gun sprayed Cu-Ni-In coating on Al-Mg-Si alloy

• Uniaxial plain fatigue and fretting fatigue tests were carried out on detonation gun sprayed Cu-Ni-In coating on Al-Mg-Si alloy samples, The samples in three conditions were considered: uncoated, as- coated and ground after coating. Ground coated specimens exhibited superior plain fatigue and fretting fatigue lives compared with uncoated and as-coated specimens. The life enhancement has been discussed in terms of surface finish and residual compressive stresses at the surface. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
