In this study, billets of the ZK30 (Mg-3Zn-0.6 Zr-0.4 Mn, wt%) alloy were Equal Channel
Angle Pressing (ECAP) processed for up to four passes of routes Bc (with rotating the …

This study presents a comparative analysis of texture evolution, deformation mechanisms,
and dislocation density evolution in pure copper, Al-1100 alloy, and Mg AZ31 alloy …

Severe plastic deformation (SPD) processes are forming techniques that impose large
plastic strains to achieve ultra-fine grained and nanocrystalline microstructures. The refined …

The present study investigates the effects of multiple passes of equal channel angular
pressing (ECAP) on magnesium alloy sheets with the assistance of an Inconel plunger …

The grain structure of metals changes significantly during severe plastic deformation (SPD),
and grain refinement is the main process associated with SPD at low homologous …

In designing accurate constitutive models, it is important to investigate the stability of the
response obtained by means of these models to perturbations in operator and input data …

A new phenomenological strain hardening function is proposed to describe the strain
hardening behavior of metallic materials. The function is based on a simplification of an …

Microstructure analysis via electron backscatter diffraction has become an indispensable
tool in materials science and engineering. In order to interpret or predict the anisotropy in …

In this work, a physically based model accounting for grain-to-grain interaction and grain
refinement mechanisms is proposed to predict the anisotropic mechanical response and the …
