Dynamic Recrystallization of High Purity Aluminum.

Observation of recovery and recrystallization in high-purity aluminum measured with forward modeling analysis of high-energy diffraction microscopy

High-energy X-ray diffraction microscopy is a non-destructive materials characterization technique that is capable of tracking the evolution of three-dimensional microstructures as they respond to external stimuli. We present measurements of the annealing response of high-purity aluminum using the near-field variant of this technique. The data are analyzed with the forward modeling method which...

Recrystallization Behavior of Commercial Purity Aluminium Alloys

Ultrasonic Monitoring of Recrystallization Textures in Aluminum

The present paper is an attempt to use ultrasonic velocity measurements to characterize the texture of an aluminum-magnesium alloy ( Al 5xxx ) and to compare the results with orientation imaging microscopy ( OIM ) results. The results are characterized in terms of three orientation distribution coefficients ( ODC's ), W400 , W420 , and W440 , each of which describes a particular forming anisotr...

Dynamic investigation of high-purity/high-conversion generic reactive distillation

Abstract This paper presents the nonlinear dynamic analysis of an ideal two-reactant-two product reactive distillation. The impact of disturbance magnitudes and directions on openloop stability of the system is studied. An analysis of the physicochemical phenomena present in reactive distillation processes that, under certain operational conditions, causes special types of nonlinear behavior is...

Evidence for Solute Drag during Recrystallization of Aluminum Alloys

Evidence of both solute drag as well as differences in migration mechanisms of certain boundary types has been found for an Al-Zr alloy. In-situ Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) annealing experiments coupled with Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM) showed a stark contrast between Zr segregation at small and large scales. Specifically, Zr was found to segregate to, as well as ...
