Review on ultrafined/nanostructured magnesium alloys produced through severe plastic deformation: microstructures

A review on the microstructural evolution in magnesium alloys during severe plastic deformation waspresented. The challenges deserved to achieve ultrafine/ nanostructured magnesium were discussed.The characteristics of the processed materials are influenced by three main factors, including i)difficult processing at low temperatures, ii) high temperature processing and the occurrence ofdynamic r...

Formability of Magnesium Alloys

The paper is focused on issues of processing of non-ferrous metals in practice, namely on Mg-Al-Zn based on magnesium alloys with graded Al contents. It is well known that forming of these alloys is difficult since this feature is caused by their crystallographic arrangement. Nevertheless, application of appropriate methods of forming, such as e.g. some of SPD processes, makes it possible to ac...

Laser Welding of Magnesium Alloys

Aiming at establishing a reliable welding technique for magnesium alloys, the laser weldability of different types of magnesium alloys has been investigated using a high-brightness disc laser. It was found that high quality joints could be fabricated in the case of wrought type alloys when a certain defocusing level was optimized for the employed high-brightness laser beam of the newly develope...
