Major, recent developmental trends in the field of metal forming are presented in the paper
both from experimental and numerical point of view. First, progress made in metal forming …

Magnesium, the lightest structural metal, is difficult to form at room temperature due to an
insufficient number of deformation modes imposed by its hexagonal structure and a strong …

Over the past few decades, aluminium (Al) has been considered to be beneficial for
castability but detrimental for the creep resistance of magnesium (Mg) alloys. However, an …

WE43 is a high-strength, corrosion-resistant Mg-alloy containing rare earths such as Y and
Nb, and has potential for many lightweight structural or bioresorbable prosthetic …

Magnesium and its alloys have such advantages with lightweight, high specific strength,
