is employed to improve the strength and ductility of a Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy. During the RU
processing, dynamic recrystallization occurs in the Mg alloy, which leads to a significant
grain refinement from 11.2 μm to 2.8 μm. The yield strength (YS), ultimate tensile strength
(UTS) and elongation increase simultaneously with increasing RU passes. The
microstructural evolution is affected by processing temperatures. Dynamic recrystallization …
