A detailed investigation on the microstructure and micro-texture evolution in Al–Li alloy has
been carried out following deformation at various strain paths. The stretch forming tests have …

Abstract The process of Hot Form and Quench of aluminum alloys, called Direct HFQ®, has
been developed and applied to manufacture high-strength panel components, in which …

Formability of peak-aged AA 7075-T6 sheet across a temperature range from room
temperature to 250° C as well as post-forming microstructure/property were investigated in …

AA-6061 aluminium alloys are used extensively in automobile and aerospace industries
owing to their excellent combination of mechanical and physical properties. This alloy …

Here we report a heterogeneous microstructure in Al–Zn–Mg–Cu alloys by coupling control
of solute gradient distribution, multiscale iron-rich phases and a novel thermomechanical …

Influence of tempers on the hole-expansion formability of an AA7075 aluminum sheet is
investigated for-T6 (as-received) and-W tempers (super saturated by the solution heat …

The effect of crystallographic texture on precipitation induced anisotropy in yield strength of
an aluminium magnesium silicon alloy was investigated. Solutionized samples were …

We analyse flow stress, work hardening and plastic anisotropy of two heat-treatable Al alloys
of the AA 6xxx and AA 7xxx series in dependence on state and morphology of the age …

The effects of three-stage homogenization on recrystallization and fatigue crack growth
behavior of 7020 aluminum alloy were investigated. It was shown that a large amount of fine …

In order to evade the low formability dilemma in Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys, the formation
mechanism of heterogeneous structure and its effect on the formability of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloys …
