Abstract:The creation of UFG (ultra-fine grain) materials is a new and promising way to improve metals and alloys for advanced structural and functional application. To date, it is common knowledge that UFG materials can be successfully produced by intense plastic deformation. Severe plastic deformation (SPD) is one of the most effective techniques to improve the physical and mechanical properties of metallic materials through structural refining for UFG and nano-crystalline (NC) states. One of the approaches that has … Show more
