Abstract: Hot compression tests of Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy at different deformation temperatures and strains were carried out with Gleeble-1500 simulator at strain rate of 0.002 s−1. The microstructure evolution of 400 °C/0.002 s−1 sample under different strain was analyzed emphatically by transmission electron microscopy and electron backscatter diffraction technology. Dynamic precipitation characteristics and nucleation-expansion mechanism of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) were discussed in detail. The results indicated that the dynamic precipitation takes place prior to DRX, and the morphology, size and distribution of precipitates change with increasing strain. At the later stage of deformation, the large-size hard phase β-Mg5(Gd,Y) can induce the particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN) mechanism under large strain and act as an effective nucleation site for DRX. In addition, we constructed a schematic diagram of the DRX nucleation-expansion mechanism of Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloy under high temperature deformation. The first layer of DRX grains is formed by discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) mechanism characterized by grain boundary bulge out, and the precipitates distributed at the original grain boundary promote DDRX nucleation; The expansion of necklace structure depends on continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) mechanism; Subgrain division can further refine DRX grains.

TL;DR: In this paper, the microstructure evolution and deformation behavior of Mg-5Gd-3Y-(1Sn)-0.5Zr alloys were studied by transmission electron microscopy and electron backscattering technology.
Abstract: We have studied the microstructure evolution and deformation behavior of Mg-5Gd-3Y-(1Sn)-0.5Zr alloys during hot compression (T = 350 °C, 400 °C, 450 °C and 500 °C, e ˙ = 0.002 s−1, 0.01 s−1, 0.1 s−1 and 1 s−1) by transmission electron microscopy and electron backscattering technology. Sn can promote dynamic precipitation to activate the particle-stimulated nucleation (PSN) mechanism induced by the cluster precipitates and promote and dynamic recrystallization (DRX); in addition, Sn can inhibit the formation of high-angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) by reducing the activation of pyramidal and slip and delaying DRX. The two processes are in a competitive relationship with each other in the hot deformation of Mg-Gd-Y-Sn-Zr alloys. At low temperatures (350 °C–400 °C) and high strain rates, the former dominates: DRX is promoted, accompanied by a decrease in flow stress. At high temperatures (450 °C–500 °C) and low strain rates, the latter is dominant due to the absence of dynamic precipitation: DRX is delayed, and flow stress is increased accordingly. Flow stress between the two extreme deformation conditions is determined by the competitive relationship between them. We also found that the addition of Sn could increase the thermal deformation activation energy of Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloys, weaken the texture and inhibit twin growth. Finally, we constructed a schematic diagram of the DRX mechanism during the thermal deformation process to illustrate the effects of PSN, CDRX, and DDRX on the evolution of the microstructure in detail.

TL;DR: In this paper, the tensile properties of as-extruded Mg-xGa alloys were investigated, showing that the grain refinement and texture weakening were mainly attributed to the increasing dynamic recrystallization stimulated by increasing Mg5Ga2 precipitates.

Abstract: Fiji is a distribution of the popular open-source software ImageJ focused on biological-image analysis. Fiji uses modern software engineering practices to combine powerful software libraries with a broad range of scripting languages to enable rapid prototyping of image-processing algorithms. Fiji facilitates the transformation of new algorithms into ImageJ plugins that can be shared with end users through an integrated update system. We propose Fiji as a platform for productive collaboration between computer science and biology research communities.

TL;DR: The role of deformation twinning in fracture of hexagonal close-packed metals is reviewed from a theoretical point of view in this paper, where strength and ductility are correlated with the intrinsic physical and metallurgical variables.
Abstract: The role of deformation twinning in fracture of hexagonal close-packed metals is reviewed from a theoretical point of view. Strength and ductility are correlated with the intrinsic physical and metallurgical variables. The importance of c + a slip and of both “tension” and “compression” twins as independent modes for a generalized polycrystalline deformation is emphasized. Effects of slip-twin and twin-twin interactions on crack initiation and high-order twinning are reviewed. The competitive role of twin nucleationvs crack initiation is discussed. Shortcomings of our current understanding of the role of twinning are indicated, and some futher studies are recommended.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the distinction between the strain due to complete twinning and the macroscopic strain caused by formation of a thin twin lamella, and the subdivision of the orientation diagram according to the twinning system which can be operated by axial loading is a more complicated one than customarily indicated.
