Abstract Introducing {10 1¯ 2}< 10 1¯ 1> extension twin and their variants in magnesium
alloys is one of the cost-effective practical approaches for re-assigning the crystallographic …

In this article, the stability of twins, especially {10–12} twins, in Mg alloys was critically
reviewed. In the last decade, pre-twinning is considered to be an effective method for …

Magnesium (Mg) alloys are the lightest among the structural metallic materials and have
attracted great interest due to their high specific strength and specific stiffness. However, Mg …

Fatigue analysis has always been a concern in the design and assessment of Mg alloy
structure components subjected to cyclic loading, and research on the cyclic plasticity is …

Owing to the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) crystal structure of magnesium alloys, they are
characterized by poor plasticity at low temperatures (below recrystallization temperature) …

Twinning and detwinning behavior of a commercial AZ31 magnesium alloy during cyclic
compression–tension deformation with a total strain amplitude of 4%(±2%) was evaluated …

The effect of pre-strain on extension twinning behavior in an extruded AZ31 Mg alloy was
investigated in this study. Pre-compression along the radial direction (RD) and subsequently …

In the present study, a pre-treatment is employed to tailor the recrystallization behavior of a
Mg–3Al–1Zn (AZ31) plate that contains {10 1¯ 2} twins. When the {10 1¯ 2} twins are …

Twinning and detwinning represent major deformation mechanisms in hexagonal close-
packed (hcp) metals. The aim of this study was to identify twin-twin interactions and …

Two-step loading tests were performed on an AZ31 rolled magnesium alloy sheet with
strong basal texture in the normal direction, and the deformation behavior such as a stress …
