Gradients of Strain to Increase Strength and Ductility of Magnesium Alloys

A strain gradient was produced in an AZ31B magnesium alloy through a plastic deformation of pure torsion at a torsional speed of π/2 per second. Compared with the base material and with the alloy processed by conventional severe plastic deformation, the magnesium alloy provided with a strai...
