The mechanical response of magnesium alloy AZ31B is addressed thanks to four-point bending tests. These alloys are known have an asymmetrical behavior in tension-compression. test is, therefore, a good candidate analyze this effect because it combines the two solicitations. Digital image correlation used measure evolution strain fields during test. Measurements shift neutral line (zero strain) ...

Compared with other forming processes, Pilger cold rolling exhibits unique process characteristics and a simple production method, making it highly advantageous in terms of high-precision, high-strength, poor-plasticity alloys. Among them, the design parameters mill play significant role results, key being hole opening angle θ gap ΔK. In this study, numerical simulation model for an AZ31B magne...

Abstract Zinc, a soft material with low melting point and high corrosion resistance, was coated onto AZ31B Mg alloy using different cold spraying process parameters. The physical mechanical properties of the resulting Zn/AZ31B samples were then investigated to explore effect parameters on microstructural characteristics. results obtained via X-ray diffraction show formation an intermetallic at ...
