Recrystallized grain refinement of a 5083 aluminum alloy by differential speed rolling.

Magnificent Grain Refinement of Al-Mg2Si Composite by Hot Rolling

The effect of chemical composition and the hot rolling operations on the microstructure and mechanical properties of in situ aluminum matrix composite with Mg2Si phase as the reinforcement was studied. It was revealed that the modification by phosphorous results in the rounder (more spherical) primary and secondary (eutectic) magnesium silicide intermetallics. During hot rolling, the primary pa...

Influence of Process Parameters on Grain Refinement in AA1050 Aluminum During Cold Rolling

The microstructure evolution during cold rolling of commercial purity AA1050 aluminum is investigated through numerical simulations. A finite strain elasto-viscoplastic constitutive model is employed, where the dislocation density and average grain size are taken as variables characterizing the deformed microstructure. Grain size evolution due to dynamic recrystallization is considered and the ...

Experimental Investigation of Thermal Conductivity of Aluminum Alloy 3003 Produced by Equal Channel Angular Rolling Process

Equal channel angular rolling (ECAR) process is one of the methods that have been used to make ultra-fine materials by imposing severe plastic deformation. After repeating the process several times, a large effective strain is applied to the sample that can cause decreasing the grain size and improving the mechanical and physical properties of the metal. In this study, thermal conductivity of t...
