Analysis of the transition in deformation mechanisms in superplastic 5083 aluminum alloys by orientation imaging microscopy

m alloys used in automotive, aerospace and military applications. Superplasticity requires fine grains with high-angle boundaries and resistance to failure by cavitation. OIM permits grain-specific orientation determination and quantitative assessment of the grain-to-grain disorientation distributio...
