Overview no. 42 Texture development and strain hardening in rate dependent polycrystals

TL;DR: In this article, a rate dependent constitutive model is developed for polycrystals subjected to arbitrarily large strains, and the model is used to predict deformation textures and large-strain strain hardening behavior following various stressstrain histories for single phase f.c. aggregates that deform by crystallographic slip.

Plastic anisotropy and the role of non-basal slip in magnesium alloy AZ31B

TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of experimental and simulation techniques were used to investigate the plastic behavior of wrought magnesium alloy and found that an increased activity of non-basal dislocations provides a self-consistent explanation for the observed changes in the anisotropy with increasing temperature.

Influence of grain size on the compressive deformation of wrought Mg-3Al-1Zn

TL;DR: The influence of the grain size on the flow stress of extruded Mg-3Al-1Zn tested in compression is examined in this paper, where samples with grain sizes varying between 3 and 23 μm were prepared by altering the extrusion conditions.
