The highlights of major Canadian research projects of last two decades that aimed at
advancing applications of magnesium and its alloys, being at the heart of lightweighting and …

Abstract Introducing {10 1¯ 2}< 10 1¯ 1> extension twin and their variants in magnesium
alloys is one of the cost-effective practical approaches for re-assigning the crystallographic …

A new grain orientation spread approach (GOS≤ 5°) was proposed to study DRX of a Mg-
Zn-Zr alloy during hot deformation. DRXed grains possessed random texture while the …

In this research, microstructure evaluation, mechanical properties and thermal conductivity
of the Mg-SiC w/Cu composite with laminar structure were investigated. For this purpose …

Hybrid additive manufacturing, incorporating additive manufacturing (AM) and other thermo-
mechanical processes, has been developed to improve AM mechanical properties by …

The present work explored the impacts of temperature, strain rate, strain and initial
orientation on hot-compression behavior and microstructural evolvement of hot-extruded …

Multi-direction impact forging (MDIF) was applied to the as-extruded ZK60 Mg alloy, and the
microstructure, texture evolution and yield strength symmetry were investigated in the …

Hot compression tests of AZ80 and AZ80-Ce alloys were conducted on a Gleeble-3800
simulator at strain rates of 0.01–10 s− 1 and deformation temperatures of 340–420° C. The …

An extruded ZK60 Mg alloy was processed by multi-directional forging (MDF) for up to 9
passes at a temperature of 473 K. The microstructure, hardness homogeneity, texture, and …

The hot deformation behavior of a fine-grained Mg‒8Sn‒2Zn‒2Al (TZA822, in wt%) alloy
was investigated in the temperature range of 150–350° C and the strain rate of 0.01‒10 s− 1 …
