Due to lattice reorientation, grain segmentation, induced recrystallization, twins play a very
important role in regulating texture, refining grains, improving mechanical properties and …

Deformation twinning is profusely activated in the Mg alloys due to lower critical resolved
shear stress (CRSS) compared to the non-basal slip systems (prismatic and pyramidal< c+ …

In this study, the hot compression test of as-cast Mg-5Al-0.6 Sc alloy was performed on
Gleeble-3500 simulator, and the effect of deformation temperature (T: 250–400° C) and …

The strain rate (ε˙) and temperature (T) dependent mechanical response of single crystal
magnesium (Mg) micropillars compressed along the [2¯ 110] direction (a-axis) is …

Slip transfer across grain boundaries (GBs) is an important mechanism for HCP metals to
accommodate intergranular deformation incompatibility. In this work, an in-situ SEM/EBSD …

The high texture dependence of a Hall–Petch slope (k) for Mg alloys has been frequently
reported. Several important equations used to calculate k have been previously developed …

The individual effect of DRXed grains, subgrains and deformed grains on the basal texture
of Mg–Zn–Zr alloy during hot tensile deformation was systematically studied by extracting …

Tensile twinning is a main deformation mode in hexagonal close packed structure metals, so
it is important to comprehensively understand twinning mechanisms which are not fully …

Abstract The Hall-Petch slope k represents the magnitude of grain boundary strengthening.
For the first time, a strong orientation dependence of the k for pure titanium (Ti) is reported in …

Achieving the strength-ductility synergy in Mg alloys is a gigantic challenge, especially in
rare-earth-free Mg alloys. In this study, a new Mg-Sn-Zn-Zr alloy with high ultimate tensile …
