the full annealing aa6061 aluminum alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformationvia the combination of equal channel angular pressing (ecap) and cold rolling (cr) in order torefine its microstructure and to improve its mechanical properties. according to the results of hotand cold tensile tests, the combination of ecap and cr significantly affected the final strengthand ductility of studied...

High performance Mg-8.2Gd-3.8Y-1.0Zn-0.4Zr alloy with high strength and excellent ductility has been successfully developed by hot extrusion. The effect of plate-shaped long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phases and solute-segregated stacking faults (SFs) on the dynamically recrystallization (DRX) behavior was analyzed. The plate-shaped LPSO phases stimulate the DRX by particle stimulated nucle...

In this study, ultrafine grained 2024 Al alloy based B4C particles reinforced composite was produced by mechanical milling and hot extrusion. Mechanical milling was used to synthesize the nanostructured Al2024 in attrition mill under argon atmosphere up to 50h. A similar process was used to produce Al2024-5%wt. B4C composite powder. To produce trimodal composites, milled powders were combined w...
