Magnesium alloys containing rare earth (RE) in conjunction with other alloying elements,
such as Zn, have drawn increasing interest due to their high strength, high ductility and high …

The effect of Zn addition on the mechanical properties in Mg-rare earth (RE) alloys has been
controversial. In this study, we selected the as-cast Mg-15Gd (wt.%) alloy as a model system …

We have successfully prepared a new high pressure die-casting (HPDC) Mg-RE based alloy
possessing excellent heat resistance. The alloy exhibits a tensile strength of 229 MPa at …

The microstructure, texture and mechanical properties evolution of the extruded fine-grained
Mg-(1, 5) Y (wt%) alloy sheets were investigated during annealing. The as-extruded sheets …

The damping behavior of extruded Mg-xY (x= 0.5, 1.0, 3.0 wt.%) sheets were investigated in
detail concerning the effects of Y addition and temperature, and the relationship between …

The effects of yttrium (Y) contents on the slip/twinning activity in extruded Mg-xY (x= 0-5, wt
pct) sheets during room temperature (RT) compression were investigated quantitatively and …

Mg-RE alloys containing long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases usually exhibit
excellent mechanical properties while the effect of LPSO phases on mechanical properties …

Tensile creep tests were performed at 523 K on a hot compressed Mg-2.5 wt% Nd binary
alloy with peak aging (AA sample) and without aging (AS sample) in this work. The dominant …

The tensile and compressive creep behavior of an extruded Mg–10Gd–3Y–0.5 Zr (wt.%)
alloy was investigated at temperatures ranging from 200° C to 300° C and under stresses …

A multi-direction impact forging (MDIF) has been applied to a solutionized Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy
in this work. An inhomogeneous microstructure, mostly fine grains, some twins and a few of …
