The present work aims to systematically investigate the influence of P content on microstructure and texture evolution oxygen-free copper during intermediate annealing final cold rolling. were studied by electron backscattered diffraction transmission microscopy. With addition P, grains refined a large fraction low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) emerged after annealing. transformed from pure me...

We have developed a technique that allows the geometry and crystallography of large quantities of contiguous crystallites to be accurately characterized. Using this technique, in concert with high precision serial sectioning, we have extracted the geometric and crystallographic configuration of approximately 2.5 mm of grain boundary area in a 0.33 mm volume of polycrystalline magnesium oxide. U...

In this study, the grain boundary character and texture of 50% and 90% cold-rolled FePd alloy was investigated during recrystallization at 700 °C. Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) measurements were performed on the rolling direction to normal direction section. Kernel average misorientation (KAM) calculated from EBSD measurements was employed to determine the recrystallization fraction. ...

The energy and mobility of grain boundaries in aluminum are reviewed briefly based on both experimental and simulation work. A novel approach to representation of grain boundary properties is given that emphasizes the interaction between different texture components. The motivation for this work is to explain the development of special textures during recrystallization such as the cube componen...

Observers are able to locate precisely a border defined by changes in texture orientation. The prevailing theory is that such localization takes place using a hierarchical, filter-rectify-filter mechanism. An alternative theory is that contextual modulation causes the border elements to stand out. Here we show that perceived border location is inconsistent with contextual modulation from iso-or...

Introduction: Pallasites are widely considered to be poor in sulphide, as such little is known about troilite evolution and processing. Very few examples exist indicating the multiple stages of troilite evolution. Discussed here are two such samples of FeS structures one is a nickel enriched FeS grain in the main group pallasite Hambleton. The other is a series of micron FeS particles within ol...

AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets with 2 mm thickness were successfully fabricated by multi-pass lowered-temperature rolling. The evolution of the microstructure, texture, and mechanical properties during rolling process was investigated. Based on effect multiple dynamic recrystallization, not only refined grain size obviously but also markedly improved microstructure homogeneity. resulting had optim...
