Grain refinement can lead to the strengthening of metallic materials according to the Hall-
Petch relationship. However, our recent results suggested that grain boundary sliding is the …

Modern wrought magnesium alloys have poor formability at room temperature, which
impedes the wider uptake of these alloys by the industry. Over the last decades, research …

A differential speed rolling (DSR) technique that provides capability of producing large-scale
materials with fine grains and controlled texture in a continuous manner has attracted …

To facilitate the wider application of wrought Mg alloys as structural materials, it is desirable
to improve the formability and minimize the strength anisotropy inherent in these materials …

Nanograined structures with an average grain size of∼ 85nm have been achieved in
solution hardened AZ31 magnesium alloy by two-pass friction stir processing under rapid …

AZ31 Mg alloy extrusion wires were successfully cold drawn to a cumulative area reduction
of 61% at room temperature and then subjected to various annealing treatments …

Abstract Mg-Zn-Zr (ZK60) alloys reinforced by ultra-low content (< 0.1 wt%) of graphene
nanoplatelets (GNPs) were fabricated via stirring cast and extrusion processes. In …

In this work the effect of multi-pass friction stir processing (FSP) followed by warm pressing
on an as-extruded ZK60Mg plate was investigated. The microstructure, texture and resulting …

The microstructure and texture evolution in the sheets of AZ31 magnesium alloy was studied
by means of cross-wavy bending for 4 passes at 673 K. The bended samples were …

Friction stir welded Mg AZ31B alloy have been investigated. Friction stir welding (FSW) is
carried out at different rotational speeds of 900 rpm, 1120 rpm, 1400 rpm and 1800 rpm and …
