Grain refinement of metallic materials to sub-micron or nano-scale by severe plastic
deformation (SPD) has been well-recognized by the community of materials scientists. The …

AA6061 twin roll casting plate was annealed and then the hot rolling experiment was
carried. Effect of Mn content on microstructure evolution and recrystallization behavior was …

In this study we discuss the effect of heterogeneous microstructure obtained by hydrostatic
extrusion on precipitation phenomena in commercially available Al–Mg–Si alloy. After …

The surface microstructure and its evolution during long-term room-temperature storage
were studied using transmission electron microscopy for an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy processed by …

Al7075 sheets are widely used in aerospace industry and their higher strength-plasticity
collaborative improvement requirement is urgent. In this study, the microstructure inheriting …

The use of a constrained groove pressing (CGP) method to plastically deform AA6063
aluminum alloy led to the improved surface properties. It was found that hardness magnitude …

This paper presents a finite element thermal model for similar and dissimilar alloy friction stir
spot welding (FSSW). The model is calibrated and validated using instrumented lap joints in …

Al6061-T6 aluminium single layer plates, of different thickness, impacted by two different
7.62 mm Armour Piercing projectiles are studied from a metallographic point of view. The …

The effect of heavy deformation on precipitation strengthening in a commercially available
6082 alloy was studied. Three levels of deformation were applied to a supersaturated solid …

Abstract Effect of electrical pulse treatment (EPT) on the retrogression and re-aging behavior
of Al-Mg-Si based 6061 aluminum alloy was investigated by tensile tests, hardness …
