      abstract     = {Scope of past and current research and development in
                      aviation is the reduction of the aircraft’s weight in
                      order to reduce fuel consumption as well as to raise payload
                      and range. A potential joining technology to replace the
                      riveting (state of the art) of fuselage parts is friction
                      stir welding (FSW), because riveting is expensive and raises
                      the aircraft’s weight. FSW enables to weld high strength
                      aluminium alloys that are used in aircraft manufacturing
                      without drastic loss of mechanical properties. Furthermore,
                      it is possible to produce load optimized structures by
                      joining sheets with different thickness (Tailored Welded
                      Blanks, TWB). In the present work, an Al-Mg-Sc alloy was
                      investigated. Al-Mg-Sc alloys offer good corrosion and
                      damage tolerance properties and can be processed by creep
                      forming, which allows to produce double curvature parts.The
                      process of FSW introduces macroscopic residual stresses,
                      which influences the fatigue crack growth behavior
                      significantly. Additionally, the crack arresting capability
                      of riveted structures does not apply to welded structures
                      due to the material’s bond. The fatigue crack growth
                      behavior is essential for the engineering design approach of
                      damage tolerance. Thus, the aim of the present work is to
                      investigate and quantify the crack growth behavior of FSWed
                      structures of the Al-Mg-Sc alloy AA5028-H116.To achieve this
                      aim, experimental and evaluation procedures were advanced.
                      With the help of finite element simulation with fracture
                      mechanics analysis and 3D digital image correlation
                      experimental dependent geometry functions were determined in
                      order to provide stress intensity factors for the cyclic
                      fatigue crack growth experiments on welded specimens. By
                      this means, crack growth curves for rather large specimens
                      could be determined with high accuracy. In order to be able
                      to investigate residual stresses and their influence on the
                      crack growth, the cut-compliance-method was applied. Finite
                      element simulations were used to cover the geometrical
                      influence of the thickness transition for the determination
                      of the residual stresses by means of the
                      cut-compliance-method. Crack growth behavior and residual
                      stresses were determined for specimens with and without
                      thickness transition with the crack growing perpendicular to
                      the weld as well as growing along the weld.Macroscopic
                      residual stresses and their influence on the crack growth
                      were determined for the residual stress affected specimens.
                      Thereby, residual stress affected crack growth curves could
                      be corrected and thus attributed to the base material’s
                      crack growth behavior. For this reason, a correction for the
                      mean stress regarding the cyclic stress intensity factor was
                      specified. It became apparent that the changes in crack
                      growth rate were affected prevailingly by the residual
                      stress. Major effects due to the microstructural changes
                      inside the weld were not observed. The crack growth behavior
                      of the highly distorted specimens with thickness transition
                      could not be explained by solely considering the residual
                      stress. Thus, further investigations of the crack mouth
                      opening displacement were included.},
