The elemental mixture of Mg-6 wt %Al-1 wt %Zn-0.3 wt %Mn (AZ61B) alloy powder and CaO particles was consolidated by an equal-channel angular bulk mechanical alloying (ECABMA) process to form a composite precursor. Subsequently, the precursor was subjected to a heat treatment to synthesize fine Al₂Ca particles via a solid-state reaction between the Mg-Al matrix and CaO additives. Scanning electr...

recent developments in nanostructured products draw considerable attention to ultrafine grained materials. these materials are normally manufactured by different severe plastic deformation (spd) methods. in the present study, analytical models and finite element method (fem) are used to calculate strain imposed to a specimen that was deformed by equal channel angular pressing (ecap). in additio...

Naizabekov, Mining and Metallurgy Faculty, Rudny Industrial Institute, Rudny, Kazakhstan In the present research, equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was conducted. The defectness degree of the alloy for one pass and maximum strain was determined. Ultra fine grained...

This paper presents the results of studies on true fracture stresses Al alloy 6101 with an ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure processed by equal channel angular pressing — conform (ECAP-C) method and same after artificial aging (AA state). The grain size in UFG state was about 500 nm. Aging particles Al3Fe were present AA state. Strength yield stress increase as a result formation structure. str...
