During severe plastic deformation (SPD), the processes of lattice defect formation as well as
their relaxation (annihilation) compete with each other. As a result, a dynamic equilibrium is …

This review discusses an area of expertise that is at the intersection of three large parts of
materials science. These are phase transformations, severe plastic deformation (SPD), and …

The main recent advances in Al-based amorphous alloys are discussed in three areas:
crystallization behavior, glass-forming ability and minor alloying effects. First, as a brief …

Melt-spun amorphous ribbons of Al 90 Y 10 (at.%)(90Al) and Al 84 Y 8.5 Ni 4 Co 2 Pd 1 Fe
0.5 (84Al) are cold-rolled at near to liquid-nitrogen temperature or at room temperature …

Shear bands play a key role in the deformation of amorphous alloys at room, low and
elevated (below the glass transition) temperatures. The shear bands in the amorphous Al–Ni …

The influence of heat treatment and deformation on structural changes of Al-based
amorphous alloys in the amorphous state and at early stages of crystallization has been …

Formation of aluminum nanocrystals in light Al 90 Y 10 and Al 87 Ni 8 Gd 5 amorphous
alloys at heating and deformation was studied by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy …

Structure evolution of amorphous alloys at heat treatment and deformation is discussed.
Amorphous structure change before crystallization is considered for Al-, Ni-, Fe-, Zrbased …

This review describes the current state of research on the formation of a nanocrystalline
structure in amorphous alloys under thermal and deformation effects. The processes of …

Structure evolution in metallic glasses under heating and deformation is studied and
discussed. Special attention is devoted to the pre-crystallization processes occurring at …
