Mechanical properties of Mg–Al–Zn alloy with a tilted basal texture obtained by differential speed rolling

Improvement of formability of Mg–Al–Zn alloy sheet at low temperatures using differential speed rolling

“…It has been known that the imposition of the shear deformation is effective to enhance room temperature ductility of the Mg alloys due to microstructural and textural modification. Several processing methods including equal channel angular extrusion [8], friction stir processing [9], cross-roll rolling [10] and DSR [11][12][13][14][15][16], which can introduce the intense shear strain in the whole deformed parts, have been conducted on the Mg alloys for achieving a fine microstructure and a texture control. Among these processing methods, the advantages of DSR are the capability of forming large thin parts, the unnecessity of complex roll shape and the potential to meet the industrial needs.…”

Analysis of microstructure and texture evolution in pure magnesium during symmetric and asymmetric rolling

“…Several investigations into the microstructure of and texture evolution in magnesium alloys can be found in the literature [16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. However, the mechanism of texture evolution, occurrence of dynamic recrystallization or ideal position, and their persistence characteristics are not yet well understood.…”

On crystal plasticity formability analysis for magnesium alloy sheets

“…doi:10.1016/j.ijsolstr.2010.12.004 by mainly re-orientating basal plane. For example, Huang et al (2008) have reported an increase in the uniform strain prior to necking in AZ31 sheet produced by differential speed rolling (DSR), where the basal poles are tilted $15°in the rolling direction (RD). Chino et al (2008) have observed enhanced tensile ductility of AZ31 bar through torsional extrusion (TE), where the basal poles are inclined $30°to the extrusion direction.…”
