This work has two primary goals. The first is to advance our fundamental understanding of grain boundaries by making direct measurements of grain boundary thermodynamic properties using ultrafine-grained materials. The second is to explore possible deviations from conventional behavior at ultrafine grain sizes, specifically in regards to grain boundary thermodynamic properties and solute segreg...

Although severe plastic deformation causes grain refinement of polycrystalline materials, saturation is known to be caused by simultaneous coarsening. In the present study, for ultra-fine-grained (UFG) pure Al prepared equal-channel angular pressing, we studied and coarsening processes during large simple-shear using scanning electron microscopy/electron backscatter diffraction. The changes cry...

Accumulative roll-bonding process (ARB) is an important severe plastic deformation technique for production of the ultrafine grained, nanostructured and nanocomposite materials in the form of plates and sheets. In the present work, this process used for manufacturing Al/SiO 2 nanocomposites by using Aluminum 1050 alloy sheets and nano sized SiO 2 particles, at ambient temperature. After 8 cycle...

in this study, ultrafine grained 2024 al alloy based b4c particles reinforced composite was produced by mechanical milling and hot extrusion. mechanical milling was used to synthesize the nanostructured al2024 in attrition mill under argon atmosphere up to 50h. a similar process was used to produce al2024-5%wt. b4c composite powder. to produce trimodal composites, milled powders were combined w...
