Grain refinement could effectively enhance yield strength of Mg alloys according to the well-
known Hall-Petch theory. For decades, many studies have been devoted to the factors …

Due to lattice reorientation, grain segmentation, induced recrystallization, twins play a very
important role in regulating texture, refining grains, improving mechanical properties and …

Commercial Mg extrusions usually develop various types of basal textures, affecting the
formability and mechanical properties. The mechanisms for the formation of basal texture …

In this paper, the relationship between anisotropic mechanical properties and the
corresponding microstructure evolution of wrought magnesium alloys is critically reviewed …

The influence of changes in crystallographic texture on the Hall–Petch (H–P) relationship for
an Mg alloy was investigated. First, the texture variations were facilitated by changing the …

Together with slip, deformation twinning and de-twinning are the plastic deformation
mechanisms in hexagonal close packed (HCP) crystals, which strongly affect texture …

Hot compression tests of Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy at different deformation temperatures and strains
were carried out with Gleeble-1500 simulator at strain rate of 0.002 s− 1. The microstructure …

Pre-twinning was used to tailor the strength and ductility of AZ31 magnesium alloy.
Simultaneous enhancements in both ductility and strength were achieved in the AZ31 after …

In order to reduce oil consumption and avoid fossil fuel-related environmental problems,
scientists are always looking for lightweight structural materials that show high performance …

The present work, for the first time, quantitatively studies the evolution of both dislocations
and deformation twins with various strain rates in an ATZ311 Mg alloy. Interrupted tensile …
