The present work deals with the evolution of mechanical properties and structure of low-carbon Fe-1,12Mn-0,08V-0,07Ti-0,1C (wt.%) steel after severe plastic deformation (SPD) and high-temperature annealing. Steel in initial ferritic-pearlitic state was deformed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at T=200°C and high pressure torsion (HPT) at room temperature. The evolution of ultrafine grained structure and its thermal stability were investigated after annealing at 400-700°C for 1 hour. The results shown that SPD leads to formation of structure with an average size of (sub-) grain of 260 nm after ECAP and 90 nm after HPT. Ultrafine grained structures produced by SPD reveal a high thermal stability up to 500°C after ECAP and 400°C after HPT. At higher annealing temperatures a growth of structural elements and a decrease in microhardness were observed.

The article represents results of influence of different severe plastic deformation (SPD) techniques on TiNi alloys. It is demonstrated that strength and shape memory effect (SME) of TiNi can be significantly enhanced due to formation of ultrafine-grained (UFG) and nanocrystalline (NC) structures by SPD. Influence of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP), high pressure torsion (HPT), multi-step SPD deformations (ECAP plus cold rolling) on structure, mechanical and functional properties of TiNi alloys is considered. There are represented first results of influence of equal channel angular pressure-Conform (ECAP-C) on TiNi alloys, which is a perspective technology for industrial fabrication of UFG metals and alloys.

Processing through the application of severe plastic deformation (SPD) provides a very attractive tool for the production of bulk ultrafine-grained materials. These materials typically have grain sizes in the submicrometer or nanometer ranges and they exhibit high strength at ambient temperature and, if the ultrafine grains are reasonably stable at elevated temperatures, they have a potential for use in superplastic forming operations. Several procedures are now available for applying SPD to metal samples but the most promising are Equal-Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) and High-Pressure Torsion (HPT). This paper examines the basic principles of ECAP and HPT and describes some of the properties that may be achieved using these processing techniques.

This study examines the effect of severe plastic deformation on the physical and mechanical properties of a light structural Al-Mg alloy. Severe plastic deformation has been performed by equal channel angular pressing through a die with an angle of 90° between the channels to produce ultrafine-grained structure in specimens of studied alloy. A complex investigation of the physical and mechanical properties of the processed alloy has been carried out to examine the microstructure and texture, and to measure microhardness, yield stress and ultimate tensile strength. The obtained results demonstrate high efficiency of the chosen treatment method and mode of producing a light ultrafine-grained alloy.

The paper reports on the effect of severe plastic deformation on mechanical properties of an Al-4.57Mg-0.35Mn-0.2Sc-0.09Zr (in wt. pct.) alloy processed by equal channel angular pressing followed by cold rolling (CR). The sheets of the 5024 alloy with coarse grained (CG) structure exhibited a yield stress (YS) near 410 MPa and an ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 480 MPa, while the YS and UTS of this material with ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure increased to 530 and 560 MPa, respectively. On the other hand, the elongation to failure decreased by a factor of 2 and 4 after CR and CR following ECAP, respectively. It was shown that dislocation strengthening attributed to extensive CR plays a major role in achieving high strength of this alloy. Besides these macroscopic characteristics, jerky flow caused by the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) instability of plastic deformation was examined. The formation of UFG structure results in a transition from mixed type A+B to pure type B PLC serrations. No such effect on the serrations type was observed after CR.

Deformation methods of nanostructuring (DMNs) of materials are proposed to classify into severe plastic deformation (SPD) and mild plastic deformation (MPD) methods according to fundamentally different low- and high-temperature grain refinement mechanisms they exploit. A general analysis of the fundamentals and nanostructuring efficiency of three most developed DMNs, high pressure torsion (HPT), equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP), and multiple isothermal forging (MIF) is done with a particular attention to ECAP and MIF. It is demonstrated that MIF is the most efficient method of DMNs allowing one to obtain the bulkiest nanostructured samples with enhanced mechanical properties.

The article studies an influence of temperature of severe plastic deformation (SPD) and post-deformation heat treatment on microstructure, mechanical properties and thermal stability of the Cu-0.5Cr-0.2Zr alloy. The results demonstrate that strength is considerably increased to 900 MPa by high pressure torsion (HPT) at room temperature. Subsequent ageing at 450 °С during 1 hour leads to a decay of solid solution and an allocation of dispersion particles that further incrises strength to 900 MPa, restores electrical conductivity to 70% IACS (International annealed copper standard) and enhances thermal stability of the alloy. When deformation temperature is increased to 300°С, strength is 690 MPa that is lower than in the case of deformation at room temperature that is related to reversion process at deformation. Additional a aging does not lead to an increase of strength characteristics.
