Abstract:Among several severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods, the Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) process is one of the most popular. This process's main characteristic is producing materials with ultra-fine or nanometric grains. Due to these microstructural changes, it is possible to improve mechanical properties such as strength and ductility. In this perspective, the aim of the present work was to evaluate the variations of the mechanical hardness property associated with microstructural and textural change… Show more
