Heterostructured materials (HSMs) constitute heterogeneously distributed soft and hard
zones with a mismatch in mechanical or physical properties of at least 100% between them …

A modified powder hot extrusion including gas atomization, pre-compaction and hot
extrusion was used to fabricate an ultrahigh strength Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr-Sc (7055) alloy. The …

This review highlights one of the amorphization processes of metals, alloys as well as metal
matrix composites (MMCs) and its benefits towards strength enhancements. The need for …

In this study, a corrugated constrained groove pressing (CCGP) technology based on a
semicircle groove was proposed, improving the uniformity of strain accumulation in …

In this research, the effect of stress relief annealing heat treatment on mechanical properties,
microstructure, and residual stresses of a severe plastic deformation technique, known as …

The repetitive corrugation and straightening process is a severe plastic deformation
technique that is particularly suited to process metallic sheets. With this technique, it is …

In this study, the microstructure, tensile properties, and the fracture behavior of hypereutectic
A390 aluminum alloy produced by route BC of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) were …

In this paper, room temperature forging (RTF, 25° C) and warm forging (WF, 200° C) of Al-
Mg-Si alloy were performed, for strengthening the 6082 Al alloy at low applied strain. Overall …

The thermal stability of an ultrafine-grained (UFG) AA8090 Al–Li alloy with an average grain
size of 2 μm is reported. The UFG structure was obtained by repetitive corrugation and …

A coarse-grained microstructure of solution treated AlMg5 aluminium alloy was prepared by
equal channel angular pressing through route BC. Microstructure evolution of the alloy was …
