The relation between processing parameters (routes, passes) and mechanical behavior of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) processed Mg alloys has been researched systematically by Hai-Long Jia, co-workers in this article, number 2000790. A low-cost high-strength-ductility wrought made combining fine DRXed grains, nano-scale secondary phase particles strong basal texture.

In the present study, mechanical properties and low cycle fatigue behavior of a solid-solutionized AA6061 aluminum alloy produced by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) process were investigated. The grain refinement after two passes of ECAP significantly increased the yield stress and ultimate tensile stress and decreased the ductility of the alloy. However, the improvement of low cycle fati...
