Tensile tests were carried out on aluminium alloy 6261 (containing magnesium and silicon) which had been subjected to various aging and over-aging heat treatments with the object of characterizing the now kinetics in terms of the different treatments. It was found that a glide equation which included a strain-dependent flow stress term could explain the behaviour and that the now stress-strain curves...
