Due to lattice reorientation, grain segmentation, induced recrystallization, twins play a very
important role in regulating texture, refining grains, improving mechanical properties and …

In order to reduce oil consumption and avoid fossil fuel-related environmental problems,
scientists are always looking for lightweight structural materials that show high performance …

Commercial Mg extrusions usually develop various types of basal textures, affecting the
formability and mechanical properties. The mechanisms for the formation of basal texture …

Pre-twinning was used to tailor the strength and ductility of AZ31 magnesium alloy.
Simultaneous enhancements in both ductility and strength were achieved in the AZ31 after …

Due to its light weight and natural availability, magnesium has been received a great
attention. On the other hand, the intrinsic brittleness of magnesium usually restricts its …

The mechanisms of strengthening and toughening of hot-rolled AZ31 magnesium alloy by
{10− 12} extension twins during strain path changed recompression are studied in the …

Twinning can generate the change of texture and a large of twin boundaries, which can
greatly influence the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys. Thus, pre-twinning can be …

Texture control of wrought Mg alloys, particularly in rolled Mg alloy sheets, has been an
important research topic for the past several decades because it has significant influence on …

In this article, the stability of twins, especially {10–12} twins, in Mg alloys was critically
reviewed. In the last decade, pre-twinning is considered to be an effective method for …

Metals and alloys with heterogeneous microstructures are an emerging class of materials
that exhibit exceptional mechanical properties, owing to the novel scientific principle of …
