A newly developed magnesium sheet alloy, Mg–1.5 Ag–0.1 Ca in wt.%, shows a large index
Erichsen value of 8.6 mm with a large average elongation to failure of 33% at room …

Sheet metal forming operations in the automotive industry, including stamping, flanging,
bending, hemming and trimming, are dominantly done at room temperature (RT) …

While cast magnesium components have been extensively used in the automotive industry,
only niche applications are known to exist for magnesium sheets to this date. This is …

Abstract A new Mg-2Zn-0.3 Ca-0.2 Ce-0.1 Mn 1 (ZXEM2000) alloy and a multi-stage
homogenization process have been designed and developed based on CALculation of …

Comparing the formability with each other, extrusion and various rolling experiments were
carried out to make fine-grained AZ31 Mg sheets, and uni-axial tensile tests were carried out …

To develop high-performance magnesium alloy sheets for sheet applications in the
automotive industry, we investigated the effects of the Al content on the tensile properties …

We clarified the role of Zn on the mechanical properties and texture evolution in Mg-1.2 Al-
0.5 Ca-0.4 Mn-xZn (wt.%, x= 0, 0.8 and 1.6) alloy sheets fabricated by twin-roll casting and …

We have successfully developed a Mg–3Al–0.4 Mn (wt%) alloy sheet with good room-
