Being a light metallic engineering material with low density, high specific stiffness and strength, aluminium alloys are promising materials in the fields of aerospace, military and automotive industries. Consumption of aluminium alloys in the forms of sheets and plates has generally increased in global markets over the past 45 years. Rolling directions affect the anisotropy and mechanical properties of the aluminium alloys. In this work, the plane strain fracture toughness K_{IC} values of 7075 aluminium alloy were measured in plates of three directions and six orientations (L-T, T-L, T-S, S-T, L-S, S-L), using the standard (ASTM E399) compact tension specimens. The results indicate that dependence of fracture toughness of 7075-T651 aluminium alloy on rolling direction is obvious and that K_{IC} values of T-S and L-T orientations are the highest.

Ti-TiAl₃ in situ composites with 10 wt.% Nb were successfully prepared from Ti, Al, and Nb metallic powders by powder metallurgy processing technique of electric current activated/assisted sintering. The current and process time used for producing metallic-intermetallic composites were 2000 A and 90 s, respectively. In terms of fracture toughness, effects of addition of ductile niobium phase to Ti-TiAl₃ composites were investigated. According to SEM-EDS and XRD results, the synthesized composites mainly consisted of TiAl₃ matrix and dispersive Nb reinforcing phases, as well as ductile Ti phases. Hardness and fracture toughness values of the samples were measured by Vickers hardness tester under loads of 100 g and 10 kg, respectively. Fracture toughness value of TiAl₃ intermetallic composites was increased with Nb ductile phase addititon from 1.69± 0.05 MPa m^{1/2} to 5.23± 0.3 MPa m^{1/2}.

The determination of fracture toughness of aluminium alloy aviation parts, exposed to cyclic mechanical loading, is an important engineering issue. The service life and crack resistance of such unprotected metallic parts is limited under corrosive operating conditions. The resistance against fracture cracking and corrosion resistance can be increased by the surface coatings. The scientific research of fracture toughness of coated metallic parts is being carried out in a comprehensive way. In this research, fracture toughness behaviour of high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spray coated and conventional hard chrome plated aluminium-zinc alloy parts were compared and the results are discussed. The fracture surfaces are investigated and fracture toughness values are calculated. Electron microscopy analysis revealed significant differences in crack growth morphology and toughness values. As a result, the fracture toughness value is higher in hard chrome plated parts.
