Low-velocity impacts on aerospace and structural components can lead to sudden failures, resulting in costly repairs and safety concerns. Selecting materials that can withstand such impacts is therefore critical in engineering design. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the low-velocity impact behaviour of Al6082 aluminium alloy under varying thermal conditions. The study aims to evaluate the mechanical response of the alloy by analyzing displacement, force, and energy absorption at three impact energy levels (30 J, 60 J, and 90 J) and three temperatures (25 °C, 60 °C, and 90 °C). The tests were conducted using the Instron CEAST 9340 impact testing machine. The results reveal that Al6082 exhibits increasing displacement and decreasing impact force with rising impact energy, while temperature has a marginal influence. Meanwhile, the penetration occurred at 90 J, indicating a performance threshold. Finally, the research findings offer practical insights for material selection in aerospace and structural applications exposed to accidental impacts. © 2025 IEEE.
