  1. 1. Microstructural Evolution In As-cast Alloys during Plastic Deformation

    Author : Mitra Basirat; Pär Jönsson; Hasse Fredriksson; Jacques Lacaze; KTH; []
    Keywords : plastic deformation; compression test; recrystallization; deformation band; As-cast; microsegregation; carbide dissolution; disordered structure; order disorder transformation; twining; steel; β brass; copper; SRA - E-Science SeRC ; SRA - E-vetenskap SeRC ;

    Abstract : The effect of deformation on microstructural changes in metals and alloys is the subject of considerable practical interest. The ultimate goal is to control, improve and optimize the microstructure and texture of the finished products produced by metal forming operations. READ MORE

  2. 2. As-cast AZ91D Magnesium Alloy Properties- Effect of Microstructure and Temperature

    Author : Hoda Dini; Anders Jarfors; Nils-Eric Andersson; Uta Klement; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Magnesium alloys; As-cast; AZ91D; Mechanical properties; Microstructural scale effect; Physical modelling;

    Abstract : Magnesium and magnesium alloys are used in a wide variety of structural applications including automotive, aerospace, hand tools and electronic industries thanks to their light weight, high specific strength, adequate corrosion resistance and good castability. Al and Zn are the primary alloying elements in commercial Mg alloys and commonly used in automotive industries. READ MORE

    Author : Hoda Dini; Anders E.W. Jarfors; Nils-Eric Andersson; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Magnesium; Magnesium Alloy; AZ91D; High-Pressure Die-Casting; Mechanical Property; Microstructural Characterisation; Physical Modelling; Dislocations; Distortion; Residual Stress; Magnesium; Magnesiumlegering; AZ91D; Pressgjutna; Mekanisk Egenskap; Mikrostrukturkarakterisering; Fysikalisk Modellering; Flytspänning; Dislokationer; Geometrisk Tolerans; Restspänning;

    Abstract : Today, there is an essential need for lightweight, energy-efficient, environmentally benign engineering systems, and this is the driving force behind the development of a wide range of structural and functional materials for energy generation, energy storage, propulsion, and transportation. These challenges have motivated the use of magnesium alloys for lightweight structural systems. READ MORE

  4. 4. Temperature dependent mechanical properties of as-cast steels : Experimental and theoretical studies

    Author : Zhihua Dong; Levente Vitos; Imre Bakonyi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The temperature-dependent mechanical properties of steels are important to avoid processing defects, to understand and to improve the high-temperature performance. At the same time, having access to thermal properties gives us opportunity to assess the first-principles theoretical predictions at elevated temperatures. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigation of Surface Formation in As-Cast and Homogenized 6xxx Aluminium Billets

    Author : Nazlin Bayat; Torbjörn Carlberg; Håkan Olin; Yanjun Li; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : DC casting; surface segregation; surface defects; intermetallic phase; phase transformation; homogenization;

    Abstract : The direct chill (DC) casting technique to produce billets for extrusion and ingots for rollingwas developed in the 1930s. The principle, which is still valid, is a two-stage cooling with a primary cooling at a mould surface followed by water spraying directly on the surface. READ MORE
