	  abstract     = {The present study was undertaken to investigate the
effect of aging parameters (time and temperature) on the mechanical
properties of Be-and/or Zr- treated Al-Mg-Zn (7075) alloys. Ultimate
tensile strength, 0.5% offset yield strength and % elongation
measurements were carried out on specimens prepared from cast and
heat treated 7075 alloys containing Be and/or Zr. Different aging
treatment were carried out for the as solution treated (SHT)
specimens (after quenching in warm water). The specimens were
aged at different conditions; Natural and artificial aging was carried
out at room temperature, 120C, 150C, 180C and 220C for different
periods of time. Duplex aging was performed for SHT conditions
(pre-aged at different time and temperature followed by high
temperature aging). Ultimate tensile strength, yield strength and %
elongation data results as a function of different aging parameters are
analysed. A statistical design of experiments (DOE) approach using
fractional factorial design is applied to acquire an understanding of
the effects of these variables and their interactions on the mechanical
properties of Be- and/or Zr- treated 7075 alloys. Mathematical
models are developed to relate the alloy mechanical properties with
the different aging parameters.
