The microstructural features of long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase in Mg–(11-x) Gd–
xY–1Zn–0.3 Zr (wt.%) alloys were optimized by adjusting Gd/Y ratios to10: 1, 8: 3, 6: 5, 4: 7 …

In this work, we investigated the microstructure and the mechanical properties of extruded
Mg-xGd-0.5 Mn alloys (GMx0) with the variation of Gd content (0, 2, 4, 7 wt.%). For the GM00 …

The micro addition of Ca is demonstrated to noticeably increase the strength and ductility of
Mg–Zn–Ce alloy, which is closely correlated with the enhanced alloying segregation at grain …

Interfaces play a crucial role in influencing the mechanical properties of Mg alloys. For Mg–
Li dual-phase alloy, the type of interfaces is complex, which includes both grain boundary …

The evolution of grain size and dislocation has a great influence on the plastic deformation
of the material. The variation of dislocation lines in the deformation process of magnesium …

Extensive researches have elucidated the pronounced benefits of gradient microstructures
for the mechanical properties of metallic materials. However, the ramifications of gradient …

To improve the ductility and formability of the Mg− 3Al− 1Zn alloy sheets, novel turned
bearing extrusion (TBE) dies are designed based on the conventional extrusion (CE) die …

On certain occasions, such as bending, a sheet with gradient microstructure may present
higher formability compared to one with uniform microstructure. In this study, the formation of …

The rotating backward extrusion (RBE), as a novel severe plastic deformation process, has
prosperous industrial application prospect. However, the capability and potential of the RBE …

In this work, preeminent bendability at room temperature is achieved by simultaneously
introducing the gradient microstructure and texture along the normal direction (ND) of Mg …
