Abstract: Annular notches with a depth of 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm were prefabricated on the surface of smooth specimens, and the effects of different notch sizes on the tensile and fatigue properties of 7A85 aluminum alloy were investigated, the fatigue fracture mechanism of 7A85 aluminum alloy was also analyzed. The results show that with the increase in notch depth from 0 mm to 0.2 mm, the ultimate tensile strength, elongation and fatigue strength of the specimens decrease by 6%, 47.5% and 44.4%, respectively. The notch of the specimens has a much greater effect on the elongation than tensile strength, which is linearly related to fatigue strength. The fatigue notch factor increases with the increase of notch sizes and fatigue cycles. The fatigue crack sources of 7A85 aluminum alloy are usually iron-rich second-phase particles, and the stress concentration at the bottom of the annular notch promotes the initiation of multiple fatigue crack sources. Furthermore, the effective bearing area of the specimen is rapidly reduced by the simultaneous propagation of multiple cracks, leading to a sharp decrease in fatigue life.
