In order to analyze the competitive relationship of different deformation mechanisms in wrought AZ31 magnesium alloy, the dynamic compressive experiments were conducted by a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus and a resistance-heated furnace in the range of temperature between 20 and 350 °C at the strain rate of 1000 s−1. With the help of Electron Backscattered Diffraction (EBSD) observation, theoretical calculated Schmid Factor (SF), Critical Resolved Shear Stress (CRSS), and critical equivalent stress (σ0.2), the dynamic compressive deformation behavior and corresponding mechanism of wrought AZ31 magnesium alloy along the normal direction (ND) were revealed in the current study. The results demonstrate that the c-axis of grains are gradually reoriented parallel to the normal direction of wrought AZ31-ND sheet with the temperature increasing, except the dynamic recrystallization (DRX) mechanism was activated or grains grew up. The non-basal slip and 101¯2 tension twinning are respectively the predominant deformation mechanisms at lower temperatures (≤250 °C) and higher temperatures (≥250 °C). The predominant type of DRX mechanism of wrought AZ31-ND sheet is rotational dynamic recrystallization (RDRX), which is regarded as an obstacle for the kernel misorientation concentration region enhancement.

The crystallographic response to deformation – texture evolution, internal elastic strain, and twin evolution – was measured for three load/orientation variants for AZ31 magnesium alloy extrudate tested in-situ in a synchrotron beamline. Specimens were loaded in tension parallel to the extrudate transverse direction, in compression along the same axis, and in compression parallel to the extrudate normal direction. The crystallographic responses are correlated with the mechanical behaviour of the extrudate.

An improvement of the fatigue resistance of rolled AZ31 magnesium alloy was attempted by reducing the tensile mean stress developed during fatigue deformation, which was achievable by tailoring the {10-12} twinning-detwinning characteristics of the material through the precompression process. The modification of the {10-12} twinning-detwinning characteristics made it possible to control the plastic deformation mechanisms activated during fatigue deformation so that the imposed tensile strain could be fully accommodated by detwinning alone, which led to a significant reduction of tensile flow stress, finally resulting in the reduction of mean stress.
