accumulative roll-bonding (arb) is a severe plastic deformation process that is using rolling to produce ultrafine grains in coarse grained metallic materials. in this study, arb has been applied on 70/30 brass up to 6 cycles at ambient temperature and non-lubricated conditions to apply a true strain up to 4.8 von mises strain. microstructures of arbed brass samples were characterized by scanni...

the effect of pre-existing nano sized precipitates on the mechanisms and rate of grain refinement has been investigated during the severe plastic deformation. a binary al–0.2sc alloy, containing coherent al3sc particles, of 3.62 nm in diameter has been deformed by accumulative roll bonding up to 10 cycles. the resulting deformed structures were quantitatively analyzed using electron backscatter...

accumulative roll bonding (arb) was used to fabricate the cu-zn multilayer and cu-zn solid solution. a lamellar structure with the hardness of about 130 vhn was formed after eight arb cycles. following to the suitable heat treatment, a solid solution with a uniform microstructure and hardness of about 57 vhn was produced. the dominant wear mechanism in the arb processed multilayer was found to ...

in the present study, the capability of accumulative roll bonding (arb) and subsequent heat-treatment to fabricate solid solution from a multilayered cu/zn/al was investigated. two post-heat treatment (one-step and two-step) routes were proposed. in the first, the arb processed material was heated to 800 c for 5:30 hours and allowed to cool slowly in a furnace (one-step route). in the second (t...

In this paper, the study of efficient bonding characteristics of AA6014 and AA1050 metal strips is carried out for Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB) process. Among various Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) techniques, ARB process is widely used due to its ability to produce ultra-fine grained ( UFG) or nanostructured bulk material. It has been observed that, if the experimental pressure and corres...

A new computational method based on MATLAB was used to study the effect of different parameters on the homogeneity of composites produced by a severe plastic deformation technique known as accumulative roll bonding. For a higher number of passes, the degree of particle agglomeration and clustering decreased, and an appreciable homogeneity was obtained in both longitudinal and transverse directi...

In this paper, an extended accumulative roll bonding (ARB) technique, called the 'Four-Layer Accumulative Roll Bonding (FL-ARB)' technique, is presented for the first time. This technique has been employed to produce ultrafine-grained commercial pure aluminum sheets with success. After three FL-ARB passes, the grain size of pure aluminum was seen to reduce to 380 nm. The bonding strength of the...
