An investigation of the effect of solutes on the migration of a single {10 1¯ 2} Gd decorated
twin boundary in a Mg-4wt.% Gd binary alloy in terms of the corresponding stress-strain …

We have recently reported that a high strain-rate rolling process is effective for producing
strong and ductile Mg alloy sheets. Here we elucidate the fundamental mechanisms that are …

The present study aims at determining the influence of cyclic straining on the behavior of
pure extruded magnesium. For this purpose, tensile, compressive and cyclic tests are …

The size dependent deformation of Cu single crystal micropillars with thickness ranging from
0.2 to 2.5 μm subjected to uniaxial compression is investigated using a Multi-scale …

Plastic yielding in magnesium alloys frequently involves the initiation of both slip and
twinning events. A proper understanding of the phenomenon at the grain level requires …

Non-Schmid phenomena leading to yield asymmetry are known to occur in BCC metals and
intermetallic compounds due to complex mechanisms such as those related to the three …

Abstract {10 1¯ 2} twins were introduced into the magnesium (Mg) plate AZ31 via pre-rolling
along its transverse direction. The plates, both with and without the pre-induced {10 1¯ 2} …

Severe plastic deformation through high-pressure torsion is used to refine the grain structure
of the Mg–Al–Zn alloy down to~ 140 nm and low temperature annealing is used to produce …

The effect of aging on the accumulation of microscale plasticity, and the resulting
macroscopic mechanical behavior, were examined in the magnesium alloy WE43 under …

This work discusses coarse-grained micromechanics of tensile twinning in magnesium (Mg)
extracted from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We perform MD simulations on Mg …
