Severe plastic deformation (SPD) has established itself as a potent means of producing bulk
ultrafine grained and nanostructured materials. It has given rise to burgeoning research that …

Bulk ultrafine-grained (UFG) metals and alloys prepared by techniques of severe plastic
deformation (SPD), in particular by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP), exhibit …

Abstract High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) are a new class of multi-component alloys with
excellent tensile strength-ductility combination. Their yield strength levels, however, are still …

Key issues in cyclic plasticity modeling are discussed based upon representative
experimental observations on several commonly used engineering materials. Cyclic …

The ability to model the cyclic behavior of low yield point steel accurately is essential for its
application to seismic design. In this study, uniaxial tests of monotonic and strain controlled …

The potential of the concept of phase reversion process to obtain nanograined (NG)
structure with high strength–high ductility combination and to fundamentally understand the …

Cyclic plastic deformation phenomena include the Bauschinger effect, cyclic
hardening/softening, strain range effect, loading history memory, ratcheting, mean stress …

Severe plastic deformation (SPD) leads to substantial strengthening in materials via grain
refinement, however, the main drawback of the materials processed using known SPD …

In the first part, some fundamental issues that have been under discussion for a long time
will be revisited, namely the effect of the cyclic slip mode on the fatigue-induced dislocation …

Magnesium (Mg) alloys are difficult to cold/warm-process due to their hexagonal close-
packed (HCP) lattice, which has restricted slip systems and makes plastic deformation at low …
