Magnesium is the lightest constructional metal, which makes it an important material for
different applications like automotive, transportation, aviation and aerospace. There are …

Due to its light weight and natural availability, magnesium has been received a great
attention. On the other hand, the intrinsic brittleness of magnesium usually restricts its …

Pure magnesium exhibits poor ductility owing to pyramidal〈 c+ a〉 dislocation
transformations to immobile structures, making this lowest-density structural metal unusable …

Mg alloys are among the lightest alloys but they are usually weak. Here we report a new
mechanism to make them ultrastrong while maintaining good ductility. Stacking faults with …

This book provides a comprehensive review of the biomedical applications of biodegradable
magnesium and its alloys. It discusses the basic concepts of biodegradation mechanisms as …

The microstructure and mechanical properties of Mg-Sn-Ca-Ce alloys with different Ce
contents (0.0, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0 wt%) were studied at room temperature. Ce additions to ternary …

Microstructural evolution and mechanical properties of a Mg− 8Zn− 6Al− 1Gd (wt%) alloy
were thoroughly investigated in this work. The results indicate that the dominant intermetallic …

Owing to the low alloying content in commercial wrought Mg alloys, their strengthening
potential is greatly suppressed. It is difficult to achieve the synergy of high strength and …

In this paper, mild steel–silicon bronze bimetal based on the single-pass multi-layer model
was fabricated by shaped metal deposition utilizing gas metal arc welding technology …

Magnesium alloys are preferred for applications requiring lightweight, high specific strength,
and stiffness since magnesium is the lightest of all structural metals with a density of 1.74 …
