In this study, the deformation process of AZ31 magnesium alloy during equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was simulated using the commercial software Deform-3D under different extrusion condition (passes and temperatures). To investigate the effect of temperature and deformation rate on grain refinement, the rules of flow and deformation homogeneity and also the extrusion load during ECAP was discussed. The simulation results indicate that the AZ31 magnesium alloy obtain homogenous and larger strain magnitude after 4 passes ECAP at 250°C~275°C. To verify the 3D finite element simulation results, the microstructure in the cross-section was observed. It shows that the grain of AZ31 magnesium alloy is homogenous refined by finite element method (FEM) results, thus the mechanical property is improved.

Ti-50.8%Ni shape memory alloy was subjected to four passes equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) with angle 120◦ via route Bc at 450°C. The deformation homogeneity was analyzed on planes across the thickness of the deformed sample by Deform-3D software. Two methods were used from the simulation model to quantify deformation homogeneity , including strain standard deviation (SSD) and inhomogeneity index (Ci). In addition, The deformation heterogeneity of ECAP was analyzed experimentally from microhardness inhomogeneity index ( HII) based on Vickers microhardness test results.In the present work, Ci and SSD had been testified to detect which one could give better results experimentally. It was demonstrated that the simulation results of SSD measurements were in good agreement with experimental results .

The paper describes hydrostatic extrusion (HE) as a method of grain refinement of metallic materials down to the nanometric scale. The main features of this method are: (a) large strain, (b) very high strain rates (even greater than 104 s-1), and (c) deformation homogeneity. HE offers also the opportunity of obtaining bulk materials in a variety of forms (rods and wires of complex cross-sections, small tubes). The study undertaken on 4 materials (aluminium, aluminium alloy, copper and titanium) has shown that significant grain refinement , down to nanometric scale in the case of titanium and aluminium alloy, occurred during HE processing. This grain refinement produces significantly improved mechanical properties. It has been found that HE offers good prospects for the production of nano-structured metals and alloys.
