| Summary: | This article presents the results of experimental studies on the dynamic and static strength of commercial aluminum alloy 5056 manufactured by wire-arc additive manufacturing (WAAM). The main objective is to evaluate the utilization potential of this technology for manufacturing parts for operation under shock loads. The dynamic tensile strength of the material was investigated with a modified Kolsky method, implemented by a split Hopkinson pressure bar. A comparative analysis of the strength characteristics of materials manufactured by WAAM and conventional cold-rolling methods was carried out using a structurally temporal approach with the incubation time criterion. The results showed that the aluminum alloy obtained by WAAM demonstrates comparable strength levels to that of cold-rolled material. The findings suggest that WAAM can be a competitive alternative for producing high-strength aluminum alloys for operation under shock loads. |
