TL;DR: In this article, a series of tensile test results are reported for the common wrought alloy AZ31 and a simple constitutive model is employed to argue that View the MathML source twinning (which gives extension along the c-axis) can increase the uniform elongation in tensile tests.
Abstract: Magnesium and its alloys do not in general undergo the same extended range of plasticity as their competitor structural metals. The present work is part I of a study that examines some of the roles deformation twinning might play in the phenomenon. A series of tensile test results are reported for the common wrought alloy AZ31. These data are employed in conjunction with a simple constitutive model to argue that View the MathML source twinning (which gives extension along the c-axis) can increase the uniform elongation in tensile tests. This effect appears to be similar to that seen in Ti, Zr and Cu–Si and in the so called TWIP phenomenon in steel.

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of tensile and compression tests results are reported for common wrought alloys: AZ31, ZK60 and ZM20, and these data are combined with EBSD analysis and simple flow stress models to argue the following: (i) contraction double twinning (which enables contraction along the c axis) can decrease the uniform elongation, and (ii) compression double twinening can also account for shear failure at low strains.
Abstract: Magnesium and its alloys do not in general undergo the same extended range of plasticity as their competitor structural metals. The present work presents part II of a study that examines some of the roles deformation twinning might play in the phenomenon. A series of tensile and compression tests results are reported for common wrought alloys: AZ31, ZK60 and ZM20. These data are combined with EBSD analysis and simple flow stress models to argue the following: (i) that “contraction” double twinning (which enables contraction along the c axis) can decrease the uniform elongation, and (ii) that compression double twinning can also account for shear failure at low strains. The last of these is described as a combined consequence of strain softening of the continuum and the local generation of twin sized voids.

TL;DR: A review of the literature on preferred orientation of olivine deformation can be found in this paper, where the authors highlight some of the issues with the prevailing view that seismic fast directions align with the flow direction.
Abstract: The study of preferred orientation of minerals in rocks dates back to Omalius d’Halloy (1833) who attributes a special significance to the alignment of crystals as an indicator of the formation process. Much later the influence of crystal alignment on physical properties was quantified (e.g., Weissenberg 1922, Voigt 1928, Reuss 1929). Only recently has this field emerged as a coherent part of earth science research linking such branches as mineralogy, petrology, structural geology, geodynamics and seismology. The reason for this was the emergence of quantitative methods to analyze preferred orientation, or “texture” as it was first called by Naumann (1850). These methods were largely developed in collaboration with materials science and mechanics. Quantitative measurements, detailed field studies, rigorous data analysis, theories to predict textures, and improvements in characterizing seismic anisotropy in the Earth are leading to a coherent picture that is now being refined. Though seismologists have long accepted that there is a causal relationship between anisotropic propagation of seismic waves, the deformation field and crystal orientation, the prevailing view is still largely the mythological concept that seismic fast directions align with the flow direction. While this may be approximately the case for olivine deformed under certain conditions, it is certainly no universal law, as we will try to illustrate in this review. The “fast” direction of a crystal depends on the mineral species and its crystal structure. The alignment of crystals depends on microscopic, intra-crystalline deformation systems and the deformation history. Both relationships are complex and not intuitive, but there are well-established theories to compute single crystal physical properties as well as orientation patterns. Simulations can be compared with experimental data and then applied with some caution to the macroscopic Earth. This review is intended to provide a brief introduction, highlighting some of the issues with …

TL;DR: In this article, a new reflection method is described for determining pole figures of flat samples with a Geiger counter x-ray spectrometer, which can be used directly without corrections for changes in geometry during rotation of the sample.
Abstract: A new reflection method is described for determining pole figures of flat samples with a Geiger counter x‐ray spectrometer. The chief advantage of the method is that the experimental data may be used directly without corrections for changes in geometry during rotation of the sample. Beginning from an initial position identical with the usual reflection arrangement the sample is rotated about an axis defined by the intersection of the sample surface with the plane of the spectrometer. During this motion a randomly oriented sample of sufficient thickness will yield a constant counting rate because the absorption and effective scattering volume of the sample remain unchanged. As a result, no correction formula is required. The experimental arrangement requires three horizontal slits; two are used to collimate the incident beam, and the third is placed in front of the counter. A mathematical analysis of the optical elements of the arrangement is given together with the results from a practical application.
