among different spd techniques, equal channel angular pressing has attracted the most attentions,because of applying large strain to solid bulk materials. in this research, ecap process up to 6passes was carried out on a pure copper and a 6012 al-mg-si alloy with bc route in ecap dieswith φ=120 and ψ=20 and diameter of 20and 10 millimeter respectively. moreover, x-raydiffraction (xrd) system wa...

The microstructure and mechanical properties of 7075 wrought aluminum alloy produced by strain induced melt activation (SIMA) route were investigated.Also liquid volume fraction measurement was studied by three procedures. Remelting process was carried out in the range of 560 to 610 °C for 20 min holding. The microstructure in the semi-solid state consists of fine spherical solid grains surroun...

SiC reinforced Aluminum samples were produced by stir casting of liquid AA1200 aluminum alloy at 600-650oC casting temperature. 83μm SiC particles were rinsed in 10g/l, 20g/l and 30g/l molar concentration of Sncl2 through cleaning times of 0, 60, 120, and 180 minutes. Some cast samples were tested for mechanical properties and some were subjected to heat treatment before testing. The SnCl2 rins...

The conjoint influence of welding and artificial aging on mechanical properties were investigated for extrusions of aluminum alloy 6063, 6061, and 6005A. Uniaxial tensile tests were conducted on the aluminum alloys 6063-T4, 6061-T4, and 6005A-T1 in both the as-received (AR) and as-welded (AW) conditions. Tensile tests were also conducted on the AR and AW alloys, subsequent to artificial aging. ...

this paper investigates the earing phenomenon in deep drawing of aa3105 aluminum alloy, experimentally and numerically. earing defect is mainly attributed to the plastic anisotropy of sheet metal. in order to control such defect, predicting the evolution of ears in sheet metal forming analyses becomes indispensable. in this regard, the present study implements the advanced yield criterion bbc20...

fiber metal laminates are hybrid laminates consisting of thin alternating bonded layers of aluminum and fiber/epoxy. arall (aramid aluminum laminate) and galare (glass fiber reinforced aluminum laminate) are specific kinds of fiber metal laminates that consist of thin aluminum sheets along with kevlar/epoxy and glass/epoxy composite layers, respectively. in this study, nonlinear tensile behavio...

In this paper, a characterization of an AlSiMg alloy processed by direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) is presented, from the analysis of the starting powders, in terms of size, morphology and chemical composition, through to the evaluation of mechanical and microstructural properties of specimens built along different orientations parallel and perpendicular to the powder deposition plane. With ...

Abstract This research aimed to study the induction in-situ heated hybrid friction stir welding (IAFSW) method join AA5052 aluminium alloy with X12Cr13 stainless steel (SS) enhance joint strength. The potency of this on mechanical properties and microstructural characterizations were also investigated. results show that transverse tensile strength gained was 94% base metal is 229.5 MPa. superio...

We present the results of in-situ studies of evolution of grain boundary misorientations in ultrafine grained (UFG) aluminum alloy Al-4 Cu-0.5 Zr (wt%) during annealing. The structure of the UFG alloy was obtained by severe plastic deformation method. Misorientations between the grains were measured using single reflection technique. It was found that relaxation processes during annealing are a...
