Microstructure features directly reflect mechanical responses during material deformation
and can influence the surface integrity of machined components, which is of great interest to …

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 …

Addition of a small amount of Ca improves the ductility of Mg alloys. However, the
mechanism underlying this effect is not well understood. In this work, tensile testing of an …

Heterostructures can effectively break the traditional strength-ductility trade-off dilemma.
However, how the texture of materials with heterostructure under hetero-deformation …

Twin, dislocation, and grain boundary interaction in hexagonal materials, such as Mg, Ti,
and Zr, has critical influence on the materials' mechanical properties. The development of a …

Cold dwell sensitivity of near α titanium alloys has posed a significant challenge to the
engineering safety within the aerospace industry. However, there exists inconsistency …

Abstract Machine learning (ML) methods are commonly used for pattern recognition in
almost any field one could imagine. ML techniques can also offer a substantial improvement …

When twin variants interact, TTBs form and consequently affect twinning and detwinning
processes. In this paper, we study twin–twin interactions by combining experimental …

The plastic deformation of single crystal magnesium is strongly anisotropic. This gives rise to
deformation incompatibilities between grains during polycrystalline deformation, which are …
