Abstract Bulk nanostructured (ns)/ultrafine-grained (UFG) metallic materials possess very
high strength, making them attractive for high strength, lightweight and energy efficient …

In this paper, the relationship between anisotropic mechanical properties and the
corresponding microstructure evolution of wrought magnesium alloys is critically reviewed …

As one of the representative characteristics of plastic deformation, microstructural plastic
strain inhomogeneity has triggered a broad interest in uncovering the corresponding …

A TD-split basal texture with two peaks highly tilted from the normal direction (ND) towards
the transverse direction (TD) is usually developed in Mg-Zn-Ca plates and can effectively …

Together with slip, deformation twinning and de-twinning are the plastic deformation
mechanisms in hexagonal close packed (HCP) crystals, which strongly affect texture …

In this work, a single crystal constitutive law for multiple slip and twinning modes in single
phase hcp materials is developed. For each slip mode, a dislocation population is evolved …

The focus of this article is texture development in metals of fcc, bcc, and hcp crystal structure
processed by a severe plastic deformation (SPD) technique called equal-channel angular …

In this work, we develop a multi-level constitutive model for polycrystalline metals that
deform by a combination of elasticity, slip and deformation twinning. It involves a two-level …

Hexagonal materials deform plastically by activating diverse slip and twinning modes. The
activation of such modes depends on their relative critical stresses, and the orientation of the …

We investigate the temperature and rate dependence of slip, twinning, and secondary
twinning in high-purity hexagonal close packed α-Zr over a wide range of temperatures and …
