In recent years, warm forming of magnesium sheets has been investigated by many researchers since the ductility of the sheets becomes considerably higher due to low CRSS (critical resolved shear stress) at high temperatures (e.g., [1]-[3]). In the present research, the springback of AZ31 magnesium sheet was investigated by performing a draw-bending experiment at several temperatures from 20 °C (room temperature) to 200 °C at drawing speeds ranging from 0.01 to 1.0 mm/s. From the experiment, it was found that the springback was remarkably reduced at 200 °C, especially at a low forming speed, since the flow stress was very low under such a forming condition, and furthermore, the stress relaxation effect was dominant. The effects of temperature and forming speed on springback were discussed.

ABSTRACTA detailed study of deformation of NiAl single crystals in two soft orientations, <110> and <111>, has been conducted. The Schmid factor favors {100} slip in the former and {110} slip in the latter. Detailed dislocation analysis, critical resolved shear stress measurements, and slip trace analysis have been performed to determine the nature of dislocation motion and interactions in this material. Particular attention is given to prismatic loops formed during deformation, since the shapes of these loops reveal the active slip planes. Similar loop morphologies observed in elevated temperature [001] oriented tensile specimens are also discussed.

Square cup drawing experiments were performed on an AZ31 sheet at various temperatures (T) ranging from room temperature to 200°C with three different punch travel speeds (V) of 3, 30 and 300mm/min. From the experiment, the highest drawability was observed either at T=175°C with V= 30mm/min or at T=200°C with V= 300mm/min. The effects of temperature and forming speed on the formability were discussed by comparing the result of drawing experiment with the high temperature tensile properties of the material. The forming limits were well predicted by FE simulation using a temperature and rate dependent constitutive model.

Magnesium alloy sheets had to be rolled at elevated temperature to avoid cracking. The poor workability of magnesium alloy is ascribed to its hcp crystallography and insufficient activation of independent slip systems. Present authors have succeeded in 1-pass heavy rolling of AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet below 473K by raising rolling speed above 1000m/min. Heavy reduction larger than 60% can be applied by 1-pass high speed rolling even at room temperature. The improvement of workability at lower rolling temperature is due to temperature rise by plastic working. The texture of heavily rolled AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet is investigated in the present study. The texture of sheets rolled 60% at room temperature was <0001>//ND basal texture. At the rolling temperature above 373K, the peak of (0001) pole tilted ±10-15 deg toward RD direction around TD axisto form a double peak texture. The texture varied through thickness. At the surface, the (0001) peak tilted ±10-15 deg toward TD direction around RD axis to form a TD-split double peak texture. The direction of (0001) peak splitting rotated 90 deg from the surface to the center of thickness. Heavily rolled magnesium alloy sheets have non-basal texture. The sheets having non-basal texture are expected to show better ductility than sheets with basal texture.

Magnesium alloy sheet has received increasing attention in automotive and aerospace industries. It is widely recognized that magnesium sheet has a poor formability at room temperature. While at elevated temperature, its formability can be dramatically improved. Most of work in the field has been working with the magnesium sheet after annealed around 350°C. In this paper, the as-received commercial magnesium sheet (AZ31B-H24) with thickness of 2mm has been experimentally studied without any special heat treatment. Uniaxial tensile tests at room temperature and elevated temperature were first conducted to have a better understanding of the material properties of magnesium sheet (AZ31B-H24). Then, limit dome height (LDH) tests were conducted to capture forming limits of magnesium sheet (AZ31B-H24) at elevated temperatures. An optical method has been introduced to obtain the stress-strain curve at elevated temperatures. Experimental results of the LDH tests were presented.

Compressive deformation of L10-ordered single crystals of FePd whose c/a ratio less than unity have been investigated from room temperature to 823 K. The results show that the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) for octahedral glide of ordinary dislocations is smaller than that of super-lattice dislocations in all the temperature range investigated, that is the opposite sense to the case of Ti-56 mol% Al. The CRSS for ordinary dislocations virtually independent to the temperature. On the other hand, the CRSS for super dislocations exhibits a weak positive temperature dependence from room temperature up to 573 K and decreases in higher temperatures.

Uni-axial tensile plastic deformation behavior of rolled magnesium alloy AZ31B under the temperature range from room temperature(RT) to 250°C with strain rates between 10-3 and 10-1s-1 has been systematically investigated. Microstructure evolution and texture were determined using optical microscopy (OM) and electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) techniques, respectively. Our results indicated that the strength and elongation-to-fracture were more sensitive to strain rates at elevated temperature rather than that at room temperature; dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and relaxation of stress at elevated temperature resulted in dramatic change of mechanical properties. Compared with strain rate, the temperature played a more important role in ductility of AZ31B Mg alloy sheet.

AbstractCompressive deformations of L10-ordered single crystals of FePd have been investigated from room temperature to 873 K. The critical resolved shear stress for superlattice dislocations is hard to determine resulting from buckling that occurs after a small amount of conventional plastic deformation. The CRSS for superlattice dislocations determined from yield stress is significantly larger than that of ordinary dislocations. The CRSS for octahedral glide of ordinary and superlattice dislocations are virtually independent of the temperature, and the positive temperature dependence of the yield stress is not observed for both, ordinary and superlattice dislocations, by the present experiments.
