The tensile and compression fatigue deformation tests of AZ31 magnesium alloy were carried out at room temperature, the activation behavior {10-12}-{10-12} secondary twins in different loading directions (ND normal direction, RD rolling direction) strain amplitude (0.5%, 1%) was studied. results showed that observed on fracture surface samples ND 1%. In contrast, no 0.5% nor 1% 0.5%, life great...

MgAl and MgAl/ZnO coatings were prepared by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) of AZ31 magnesium alloy in aluminate electrolyte (5 g/L NaAlO2) without with addition ZnO particles various concentrations. The coating was partially crystallized contained MgO MgAl2O4 phases. to had no significant effect on the surface morphology formed coatings, while Zn content increased particle X-ray diffractio...

Abstract The research object was the wide-spread shunt extrusion production of large-diameter thick-walled AZ31 magnesium alloy pipe with 360mm outer diameter and 10mm wall thickness. Based on DEFORM-3D finite element software platform, simulation study influence billet pressure carried out to provide theoretical support for reasonable selection equipment tonnage. results show that peak increas...

Abstract: Rotating bending fatigue tests have been performed using smooth specimens of a rolled AZ31 magnesium alloy in laboratory air at ambient temperature. Fatigue strength and characteristic was evaluated and fracture mechanism was discussed on the basis fracture surface analysis. Electrical polishing (EP) as well as deep rolling (ball burnishing (BB)) U-notched specimens were performed on ...
