Abstract
Gaining insight into material properties is fundamental to engineering and design, as it enables the creation of reliable and efficient structures and components. Aluminum 6061, a widely used alloy in industries like aerospace, automotive, and construction, is valued for its strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. To ensure its suitability for various applications, determining its mechanical properties, particularly the ultimate tensile strength, is essential. A tensile test conducted using a universal testing machine (UTM) provides precise measurements of this property by subjecting the material to uniaxial tension until failure. This data is critical for predicting performance under operational loads, optimizing material usage, and ensuring safety in engineering design. The ultimate tensile strength of the specimen is 204.89 MPa at a mesh element size of 2mm. Thus, tensile testing of Aluminum 6061 plays a vital role in advancing material science and its applications
