The deformation mechanisms of an extruded Mg-5Y-0.08 Ca (wt.%) alloy were analyzed by
means of micropillar compression tests on single crystals along different orientations …

Basal-to-basal slip transfer across grain boundaries was analyzed through the combination
of slip trace analysis and electron back-scatterer diffraction in weakly-textured pure Mg …

The strength–ductility trade-off dilemma is hard to be evaded in high-strength Mg alloys at
sub-zero temperatures, especially in the Mg alloys containing a high volume fraction of …

The present study investigates the mechanical and in-vitro corrosion behavior of Mg-4Zn-0.5
Ca-0.8 Mn alloy in optimum homogenized conditions. The optimization of the …

This review paper provides an overview of the micropillar compression technique as applied
