Abstract
The effect of hot deformation on fully recrystallized aluminium-copper alloys (Al-4wt%Cu and Al-33wt%Cu) with different volume fractions of CuAl(2) has been studied. The alloys are Zener pinned systems with different superplastic properties. Strain-induced grain growth, observed in both alloys, was quantitatively estimated by means of electron microscopy and EBSD and compared with the rate of static grain growth. Surface marker observations and in situ hot-deformation experiments combined with EBSD were aimed at clarifying the mechanisms responsible for the changes in the deformed microstructures. A sequence of secondary and backscattered electron images and EBSD maps was obtained during in situ SEM deformation with different testing conditions. Overlaying EBSD maps for the Al-4wt%Cu with channelling contrast images showed that grain boundary motion occurred during deformation, creating a layered structure and leading to an increase in size of some grains and shrinkage of others. Of a particular interest are results related to behaviour of CuAl(2) in superplastic Al-33wt%Cu during deformation, including several problems with the use of EBSD in this alloy.

Superplasticity in crystalline solids

TL;DR: Superplasticity in crystalline solids was studied in this article, where the authors showed that the superplastic properties of solids can be inferred from the properties of the solids themselves.

Grain growth and stabilisation of nanostructured aluminium at high temperatures: review

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanisms of normal and abnormal grain growth during isothermal annealing are presented, followed by consideration of thermal stabilisation by the addition of solute atoms/impurities and/or dispersion of second phase particles.

An EBSD Study of the Deformation of Service-Aged 316 Austenitic Steel

TL;DR: In this article, a simple metric, proportion of undeformed grains, is proposed for assessing strain in both the aged and unaged materials, and good agreement was established between the two techniques of assessing plastic strain in aged 316 steel.

Mechanical behavior of polycrystalline tungsten at elevated temperature

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of stress, temperature, grain size and subgrain size on the steady state creep rate of polycrystalline unalloyed tungsten has been examined based on the extensive published data available.
