The saturation of primary tensile twins in heavily textured Mg-alloy AZ31 is investigated, and their strain accommodation limit is evaluated. EBSD results suggest that the mean number of twins per grain saturate rapidly, followed by the stop of twin growth. Twinning saturation is included in a physical model of twin evolution.

A cellular automaton (CA) model has been developed for simulating the microstructure evolution and dendrite morphology of cast magnesium alloys. The growth kinetics of dendrite tips is determined by the difference between local equilibrium composition and local actual composition obtained by solving the solute transport equation. Two sets of meshes, a hexagonal mesh and an orthogonal mesh, are used in the model to perform the simulation. The hexagonal mesh is used to perform CA calculation to reflect the texture of Mg alloy dendrites, and the orthogonal mesh is used to solve the solute transport equations. The model was applied to simulate single dendrite evolution and columnar dendrites growth of AZ91D Mg alloy, as well as multi-grain growth of Mg-10Gd-2Y-0.5Zr (wt%) Mg alloy. Permanent mold step-shaped castings of the two Mg alloys were poured and metallographic examinations were carried out for validating the present model. The simulation results agree well with metallographic results. The model can be applied to simulate the microstructure evolution and dendrite morphology of magnesium alloys.

This contribution analyses influence of thermo mechanical conditions of magnesium alloy - type AZ31 forming on its flow stress. Temperature and strain/deformation rate belong to the essential thermo mechanical parameters of strain/deformation process. A testing cylinder made of selected Mg alloy was strained using pressure at warm temperatures within defined two degrees of nominal strain 30% and 60% and strain rate of 5 s-1. The pressure test at warm temperatures was conducted at testing temperatures 250, 300 and 350°C. It is important to explore the temperature influence on AZ31 alloy flow stress in order to reduce energy consumption of formed pieces production. Surface quality and precision of required dimension will improve, as well. The experiment was aimed at graphic evaluation of temperature influence on flow stress of Mg alloy AZ31B. Resulting form flow stress curve it is possible to read out its value for particular strain. These values are essential for calculation of forming force and work. For magnesium alloy AZ31 warm forming at temperature interval of 230 - 425°C is typical. The pressure tests were realized within the temperature interval of 250 - 350°C, i. e. at temperatures belonging to lower limit of recommended temperature interval, with the aim of acquirement as much information as possible on Mg alloy behavior at low forming temperatures.
