Mathematical plastic flow modeling for equal–channel angular pressing of bismuth chalcogenide base solid solution

Plastic deformation analysis in parallel tubular channel angular pressing (PTCAP)

Parallel tubular channel angular pressing (PTCAP) process is a novel recently developed severe plastic deformation technique for fabrication of ultrafine grained (UFG) metallic tubes. This new process consists of two half cycles and is affected by several parameters such as channel angles, deformation ratio and curvature angles. In this paper, the effects of these parameters on the plastic defo...

Ten years of severe plastic deformation (SPD) in Iran, part I: equal channel angular pressing (ECAP)

The superior properties of ultrafine-grained materials fabricated by severe plastic deformation (SPD) have attracted the attention of many researchers around the world.  Among the top-ranked countries that are active in this field, Iran is interesting because of the late beginnings of SPD in this country and, subsequently, the highest rate of growth in the number of publications during the last...

Plastic deformation of 7075 Aluminum Alloy using Integrated Extrusion-Equal Channel Angular Pressing

Grain refinement improves the mechanical properties and formability of metals and alloys. So far, several different grain refinement methods have been proposed and studied. Severe plastic deformation is one of the most promising and efficient methods. Therefore, in the present study the possibility of imposing a two-step severe plastic deformation (Extrusion and Equal channel angular pressing) ...

Equi-Channel Angular Pressing

Equal channel angular Pressing (ECAP) is an innovative technique for developing ultrafine-grained microstructures first developed by Segal et al in 1981 in the former Soviet Union. The ECAP method consists of two channels that intersect at an angle, generally comprised between 90◦ and 135◦ . The deformation is produced by shear as the billet is extruded through the channels. One of the geometri...
