Naizabekov, Mining and Metallurgy Faculty, Rudny Industrial Institute, Rudny, Kazakhstan In the present research, equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) was conducted. The defectness degree of the alloy for one pass and maximum strain was determined. Ultra fine grained...

in the present study, mechanical properties and low cycle fatigue behavior of a solid-solutionized aa6061 aluminum alloy produced by equal channel angular pressing (ecap) process were investigated. the grain refinement after two passes of ecap significantly increased the yield stress and ultimate tensile stress and decreased the ductility of the alloy. however, the improvement of low cycle fati...

Static recrystallization and grain growth behaviors were investigated in Mg-0.3Ce (wt%) alloy processed by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) for N = 1 (?eq 0.9), 2 1.9), 4 3.9) passes at 300 °C using route Bc annealed 450 5, 30, 60, 180 min. The results demonstrated that the microstructure texture are strongly related to strain level, second particles distribution, fraction of dynamic (DRX)...

One of the great challenges in the processing of materials using Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) is the high forming forces required to produce large shear deformation in the material. Researchers show that the friction forces between the die and the sample constitute a great part of the total forming forces. Recently, ultrasonic vibrations are successfully implemented into the ECAP proce...

Introduction. A new model, an emergency care access point (ECAP) for after-hours emergency care, is emerging in The Netherlands. This study assessed the effect on emergency department (ED) utilization and patient flows. Methods. Routinely recorded clinical ED patient data, covering a six-year period, was collected. Segmented regression analysis was used to analyze after-hours changes over time....

the full annealing aa6061 aluminum alloy was subjected to severe plastic deformationvia the combination of equal channel angular pressing (ecap) and cold rolling (cr) in order torefine its microstructure and to improve its mechanical properties. according to the results of hotand cold tensile tests, the combination of ecap and cr significantly affected the final strengthand ductility of studied...

The evolution of microstructure and mechanical properties of a magnesium cast alloy (AZ31) processed by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at two different temperatures were investigated. The as-cast alloy with an average grain size of 360  was significantly refined to about 5  after four ECAP passes at 543 K. Grain refinement was achieved through dynamic recrystallization (DRX) du...

The automobile industry uses magnesium for load-bearing components due to its low density, durability, and ductility. This study investigated a nanocomposite containing Nb2O5 (3 6 wt%) nanoparticles as reinforcement with AZ31 alloy made by stir casting. A severe plastic deformation was conducted on the cast samples via equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) after homogenization at 410 °C 24 h ag...

This study evaluated the synergistic effects of acute exercise with capsaicin (200mg) upon the restoration of cardiac autonomic functions and depolarization- repolarization interval as well as substrate oxidation. Nine healthy males [21.9(0.8) yrs] volunteered for this study. Cardiac autonomic activity, metabolic responses, and the ECG QT intervals were continuously measured during 5 min at res...
