Dramatically enhanced stamping formability of Mg–3Al–1Zn alloy by weakening (0001) basal texture

The stamping formability of Mg–3Al–1Zn (AZ31) alloy was greatly enhanced through weakening (0001) basal texture by repeated unidirectional bending (RUB). After RUB and subsequent annealing, the max (0001) texture intensity of AZ31 Mg alloy was weakened from 10.7 to 6.3 and thus the Schmid factor for...
