Journal ArticleDOI

Statistical analyses of deformation twinning in magnesium

TL;DR: This paper conducted a statistical analysis on large data sets generated by electron backscattering diffraction (EBSD) to extract quantitative and meaningful relationships between material microstructure and deformation twinning in magnesium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of microstructure on the nucleation of deformation twins in polycrystalline high-purity magnesium: A multi-scale modeling study

TL;DR: In this article, a multiscale, theoretical study of twin nucleation from grain boundaries in polycrystalline hexagonal close packed (hcp) metals is presented, and a key element in the model is a probability theory for the nucleation of deformation twins based on the idea that twins originate from a statistical distribution of defects in the grain boundaries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nucleation and growth of twins in Zr: A statistical study

TL;DR: In this paper, an in-depth statistical analysis using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is carried out to expose statistical correlations between { 10 1 ¯ 2 } twinning and grain size, crystallographic orientation, grain boundary length, and neighbor misorientation in high-purity polycrystalline zirconium strained to 5% and 10% at 77 K.
Journal ArticleDOI

Twin-twin interactions in magnesium

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied twin-twin interactions by combining experimental observations and theoretical analysis, and classified twin-two interactions into Type I and Type II for two twin variants sharing the same zone axis and two twins with different zone axes, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strain rate and temperature effects on the selection of primary and secondary slip and twinning systems in HCP Zr

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the temperature and rate dependence of slip, twinning, and secondary twinning in high-purity hexagonal close packed α-Zr over a wide range of temperatures and strain rates.
