Ductility of Mg alloys can be enhanced by alloying, controlling the grain size and
randomizing the texture. In this study, Mg-0.2% Ce alloys were processed using rolling, multi …

It is well-established that Mg-3Al-1Zn (AZ31) alloy exhibits much better tensile ductility than
pure Mg. However, the underlying mechanisms for such difference still remain relatively …

The microstructure evolution of pure Mg and two Mg–rare-earth alloys (Mg–3 wt.% Dy and
Mg–3 wt.% Er) was studied during in situ compression tests by electron backscatter …

Twinning activity and deformation limits were investigated for wrought and cast magnesium
at room and moderately elevated temperatures and varying strain paths. In situ compression …

Room temperature fracture during tensile deformation has been studied in two commercial
wrought magnesium alloys, namely AZ31B and ZEK100. As a consequence of differences in …

The propensity for the magnesium alloy ZEK100 to develop large microscale plastic strain
heterogeneity has been quantified and correlated to microstructure using a combination of …

The formation of the icosahedral phase (I-phase) as a secondary solidification phase in Mg–
Zn–Y and Mg–Zn–Al base systems provides useful advantages in designing high …

Abstract A Mg–6Zn–0.5 Zr alloy (ZK60) plate with a strong basal texture was rolled at 400° C
to reductions of 9–48%. Microstructure and texture of the hot-rolled plates were …

To explore the driving forces behind deformation twinning in Mg AZ31, a machine learning
framework is utilized to mine data obtained from electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) …

Deformation twinning in HCP metals is described by a novel thermostatistical approach.
Thermodynamic descriptions for the critical conditions for twin nucleation and growth are …
