Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metals with grain sizes smaller than 1-micrometer have received much attention in the past decade. These materials have been classified as ultra fine grain (UFG) materials (grain sizes in the range of 100 to 1000-nm) and nano-materials (grain size 100-nm) depending on the grain size. This report addresses the production of bulk UFG metals through the use of severe plastic deformation processing, and their subsequent use as stock material for further thermomechanical processing, such as forging. A number of severe plastic deformation (SPD) methods for producing bulk UFG metals have been developed since the early 1990s. The most promising of these processes for producing large size stock that is suitable for forging is the equal channel angular extrusion or pressing (ECAE/P) process. This process involves introducing large shear strain in the work-piece by pushing it through a die that consists of two channels with the same cross-sectional shape that meet at an angle to each other. Since the cross-sections of the two channels are the same, the extruded product can be re-inserted into the entrance channel and pushed again through the die. Repeated extrusion through the ECAE/P die accumulates sufficient strain to breakdown the microstructure and produce ultra fine grain size. It is well known that metals with very fine grain sizes (

This book was released on 2000-12-01 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Equal channel-angular pressing (ECAP) is a recently developed method for deformation processing of material that can produce an ultra-fine grain structure in bulk material through severe plastic deformation. This study will present results on micro structural evolution during repetitive ECAP of pure aluminum. The principal method of data collection was Orientation Imaging Microscopy (OIM). The results of the study indicate that, after one ECAP pass, the structure is inhomogeneous and anisotropic, and consists mostly of deformation-induced features. After repetitive ECAP, the aluminum material exhibited a homogeneous grain size but retained an anisotropic character to the microstructure. After twelve ECAP passes the microstructure consisted mainly of fine grains surrounded by high-angle boundaries but an appreciable fraction of low-angle boundaries remained. This microstructure thus comprises a mixture of deformation-induced and recrystallization features. Further results were also obtained documenting the existence of deformation banding in this material as well as in a rolled aluminum alloy. This phenomenon may be general in nature and associated with severe plastic deformation in aluminum and its alloys.

This book was released on 1953 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of plastic deformation on subsequent decomposition in the alloys Al-Si (1.2 percent Si) and Al-Mg-Si (1.4 percent Mg2Si) was studied with an electron microscope. These alloys were chosen because the first is easily quenched and does not age at room temperature and because in the second no decomposition after quenching and natural aging is detected with the electron microscope (although the properties change). These alloys were chosen also because they could be studied by the oxide-film method. This method was used to study the surface of the samples, which was etched before deformation and aging. It is then possible to observe simultaneously, on the electron photographs, precipitation, the block structure, and those alterations (slip lines, bending of blocks, cracks, etc.) in the submicroscopic structure of the alloys which are caused by deformation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major issue of energy saving and conservation of the environment in the world is being emphasized to us to concentrate on lightweight materials in which aluminium alloys are contributing more in applications in the twenty-first century. Aluminium and its related materials possess lighter weight, considerable strength, more corrosion resistance and ductility. Especially from the past one decade, the use of aluminium alloys is increasing in construction field, transportation industries, packaging purposes, automotive, defence, aircraft and electrical sectors. Around 85% is being used in the form of wrought products, which replace the use of cast iron. Further, the major features of aluminium alloy are recyclability and its abundant availability in the world. In general, aluminium and its related materials are being processed via casting, drawing, forging, rolling, extrusion, welding, powder metallurgy process, etc. To improve the physical and mechanical properties, scientists are doing more research and adding some second-phase particles in to it called composites in addition to heat treatment. Therefore, to explore more in this field, the present book has been aimed and focused to bridge all scientists who are working in this field. The main objective of the present book is to focus on aluminium, its alloys and its composites, which include, but are not limited to, the various processing routes and characterization techniques in both macro- and nano-levels.

Download or read book Achieving a Superplastic Forming Capability Through Severe Plastic Deformation written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Processing by severe plastic deformation (SPD) leads to very significant grain refinement in metallic alloys. Furthermore, if these ultra fine grains are reasonably stable at elevated temperatures, there is a potential for achieving high tensile ductilities, and superplastic elongations, in alloys that are generally not superplastic. In addition, the production of ultra fine grains leads to the occurrence of superplastic flow at strain rates that are significantly faster than in conventional alloys so that processing by SPD introduces the possibility of using these alloys for the rapid fabrication of complex parts through superplastic forming operations. This paper examines the development of superplasticity in various aluminum alloys processed by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP).

Download or read book Developing a High Strain Rate Superplastic Forming Capability in Aluminum Alloys written by and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The applications for superplastic forming (SPF) are currently limited because the strain rates involved in the forming process tend to be relatively slow (typically 10(exp -3)-10 (exp -1) 1 s(exp -1). There would be a very significant increase in the applications for SPF if the forming rates were increased to 10(exp -1) 1 s(exp -1). It can be shown on theoretical grounds that SPF-may be achieved at faster rates by reducing the grain size of the superplastic material. Unfortunately, it is generally not possible to achieve grain sizes as small as the submicrometer level using conventional thermo-mechanical processing. This paper demonstrates the potential for achieving ultrafine grain sizes through the application of severe plastic deformation. It is shown that two aluminum- based alloys exhibit superplastic elongations at very rapid strain rates when the alloys are processed using the procedure of Equal-Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) in which the samples are pressed through a die containing a channel bent into an L-shaped configuration. It is demonstrated also that samples processed by ECAP can be Superplastically formed at very rapid strain rates.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerous investigations have demonstrated that intense plastic deformation is an attractive procedure for producing an ultrafine grain size in metallic materials. Torsional deformation under high pressure and equal-channel angular extrusion are two techniques that can produce microstructures with grain sizes in the submicrometer and nanometer range. Materials with these microstructures have many attractive properties. The microstructures formed by these two processing techniques are essentially the same and thus the processes occurring during deformation should be the same. Most previous studies have examined the final microstructures produced as a result of severe plastic deformation and the resulting properties. Only a limited number of studies have examined the evolution of microstructure. As a result, some important aspects of ultra-fine grain formation during severe plastic deformation remain unknown. There is also limited data on the influence of the initial state of the material on the microstructural evolution and mechanisms of ultra-fine grain formation. This limited knowledge base makes optimization of processing routes difficult and retards commercial application of these techniques. The objective of the present work is to examine the microstructure evolution during severe plastic deformation of a 2219 aluminum alloy. Specific attention is given to the mechanism of ultrafine grain formation as a result of severe plastic deformation.

This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A promising way to increase the strength of aluminum alloys is by grain refinement. Therefore the production of so-called ultra-fine grained (UFG) microstructures by severe plastic deformation (SPD) is a very interesting topic. One of the most common SPD processes is Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP), which was compared to Confined Channel Die Pressing (CCDP) and cold rolling.In the focus of this work lays on the one hand the influence of different precipitation states on the formation of UFG structures and their influence on the mechanical properties and on the other hand it was examined if the thermal stability of these structures can be improved either by supersaturated solid solution(by impurity drag) or by precipitates (by grain boundary pinning).With a better understanding of the ongoing softening mechanisms a good combination of high strength and good ductility can be achievedby alternating SPD and heat treatment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "PREFACE This book offers readers a fairly comprehensive discussion of the hot working of aluminum and aluminum alloys. It is intended to provide an explanation of the possible microstructural developments that can occur with hot deformation of a variety of alloys and the kind of mechanical properties that can be anticipated. The microstructures that evolve with torsion, compression, extrusion and rolling are presented based on extensive analysis from polarized light optical microscopy (POM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) scanning electron-microscopy with electron backscatter imaging (SEM-EBSD) and orientation imaging microscopy (OIM). The microstructural analysis leads to detailed explanations of dynamic recovery (DRV), static recovery (SRV), discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (dDRX), discontinuous static recrystallization (dSRX), grain defining dynamic recovery (gDRV) (formerly geometric dynamic recrystallization gDRX) and continuous dynamic recrystallization involving a single phase (cDRX/1-phase) and multiple phases, (cDRX/2-phase). Hot working is carefully explained in the context of other elevated temperature phenomena, some of which "overlap" hot working. These include creep, superplasticity, cold working and annealing. Creep plasticity occurs at both warm and hot working temperatures, but is usually associated with lower strain-rates and relatively small strains. On the other hand superplasticity involves high tensile strains at similar temperatures, but lower strain rates than utilized in hot working"--
