Materials subjected to high dose irradiation by energetic particles often experience severe
damage in the form of drastic increase of defect density, and significant degradation of their …

This article presents our take on the area of bulk ultrafine-grained materials produced by
severe plastic deformation (SPD). Over the last decades, research activities in this area have …

The grain size achievable and long-term stability of a severely deformed aluminium copper
alloy have been investigated when copper is used in solution to inhibit recovery. It is shown …

In this paper, ultrafine-grained pure aluminum was first fabricated by heavy extrusion.
Subsequently, the prepared samples were annealed at 350 o C for different times to tailor …

The microstructure evolution and superplastic deformation mechanisms of a 2A97 Al–Cu–Li
alloy (Al-3.4 Cu-1.5 Li-0.5 Zn-0.4 Mg-0.3 Mn-0.15 Zr) with initial banded grains were studied …

Abstract Al-Mn-Si specimens were severe plastic deformed (SPDed) through constrained
groove pressing (CGP) by ε eff= 1.16, 232, and 3.48. CGPed sheets were subsequently …

Recovery and recrystallization were studied in commercial purity aluminum cold rolled to an
ultrahigh strain (εvM= 6.4) and isothermally annealed at 300° C. The deformed material …

Abstract A Cu-2.5 Ti-0.4 Cr-0.1 Mg (wt%) alloy was prepared in a vacuum medium frequency
induction furnace. The evolution of the microstructure and mechanical properties of the …

The microstructure/mechanical properties, annealing behavior, and post-annealed
microstructure/property relationship of 5052 Al alloy processed by cryogenic rolling (CR) …

Dual-straining paths through constrained groove pressing (CGP) and post-rolling were
applied on Al-Mn-Si sheet. CGPed specimens were subsequently cold-rolled by 0.47, 0.8 …
