Abstract Solid Stir Extrusion (SSE) is an innovative friction-stir technology based process
developed to obtain an extrudate of the preferred shape. As a solid-state manufacturing …

One of the key issues limiting the application of Al-Mg-Zn-Cu alloys in the automotive
industry is forming at a low cost. Isothermal uniaxial compression was accomplished in the …

Shear assisted processing and extrusion (ShAPE) is a solid-phase processing technique
that adds an additional shear force as compared with a conventional extrusion approach …

This study aims to understand the microstructure evolution and texture development during
friction extrusion of aluminum alloys, focusing on AA7075 as exemplary alloy system …

Aiming at high-energy-density off-grid application, severe plastic deformation-modified Al-Li-
Mg-Zn-Cu high-alloy aluminum obtained by deformation-driven modification was proposed …

Iron contamination in secondary aluminum scrap must be diluted with primary aluminum
during conventional recycling to bring subsequent alloys within allowable Fe limits. In this …

Friction extrusion is a metal forming process that generates large plastic strains and
deformation-induced heating through friction between a rotating die and the material to be …

In this work, we investigated the evolution of deformation microstructures and multiscale
phases of Al-Cu-Li alloy under different temperatures and strain rates. The results clearly …

The influence of prefabricated dislocation features induced by rate dependent prestrain on
the post-cyclic process in 7075 aluminum alloy exhibits significant variations, which are of …

The uneven metal flow and inhomogeneous microstructure on the cross-section of the
extruded bar are mainly induced by the uncoordinated deformation during the traditional …
