An overview of flow patterns development on disc lower surfaces when processing by high-pressure torsion

Stainless steel was selected to study the flow patterns developed with anvil misalignments of 100, 200 and 300 μm on the disc lower surfaces during processing by high-pressure torsion (HPT) through totals of up to 16 turns. A pair of anvils having a roughness of Ra ≈ 15 μm was utilized to investigat...
