Nosov Magnitogorsk State Technical University In November of 2020 NMSTU held the 5th anniversary International Youth Sci- entific and Technical Conference Magnitogorsk Rolling Practice 2020 devoted to met- al and alloy forming. In 2014 scientists of Nosov Magnitogorsk State Technical Uni- versity introduced the initiative of holding the international youth forum devoted to basic and applied issues of metal and alloy forming [1]. The idea of organizing the youth scientific and practical conference received an encouraging response from re- searchers, specialists and students. Relevance of subjects of the conference is proved by a geographic growth of participants and its constant support by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR)*. Plenary sessions for different years of the conference included reports given by leading scientists: T.G. Langdon, J.M. Cabrera Marrero, P. Tandon, M. Dabala, Hailiang Yu, I. Calliari, G.I. Raab, A. Zhilyaev, A.M. Glezer, V.N. Trofimov, A.V. Vydrin, E. Korznikova, and A. Pesin. Many young researchers present- ed their research results at previous conferences prepared and successfully defended their theses and got PhD in engineering. Communications as part of the conference gave an impetus to strengthening collaboration between young researchers of leading research schools, building new research teams capable of achieving the most challeng- ing objectives [2-3]. This year the Conference had a title of the winner of the competition held by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research for the best projects of organizing scientific events in the Russian Federation. In view of the current epidemiological situation, the Organizing Committee of the Conference decided to hold an online conference (Fig.1). Fig.1. E-conference Magnitogorsk Rolling Practice 2020 3 The conference program included reports delivered by young researchers in sessions “Innovative technology and materials in metal forming”, “Cross-disciplinary solutions in advanced materials engineering (iSmart-MetalForming)” and “Fundamen- tal challenges of metal forming in the scope of current demands of the global industry”, the workshop on “Basics of finite element modeling in Abaqus” and individual consul- tations on the difficulties of research for young researchers. Over 100 participants from 32 universities, industrial companies and research institutions took part in the virtual conference sessions. Total online time of the confer- ence exceeded 20 hours. The information partners of the Conference included journals, such as FER- ROUS METALLURGY. Bulletin of Scientific, Technical and Economical Information, Ferrous Metals, CIS Iron and Steel Review, Vestnik of Nosov Magnitogorsk State Tech- nical University, Theory and Technology of Metallurgical Production, and Mechanical Equipment of Metallurgical Plants. The conference participants were welcomed by the members of the Program Committee: Puneet Tandon, Indian Institute of Information Technology, Design and Manufacturing (Jabalpur, India), Irene Calliari, the University of Padua (Padua, Italy), and Megumi Kawasaki, Oregon State University (the USA). They emphasized in their speeches the importance of holding the conference in such a complicated epidemiological situation, a good opportunity for young researchers from various research schools to share their experience and knowledge, promoting the development of prospective research areas. They put a particular emphasis on giving reports in English to take an active part in international conferences of the highest level. In spite of rather an unconventional online format and a young age of speakers, their reports had a high scientific level, and speakers wanted to present their research results as clearly and attractively as possible and showed themselves to be quite mature researchers capable of solving complicated issues in metal and alloy forming. Subjects of the reports made by young researchers show that there is a current interest in research areas related to developing: –finite element models of metal and alloy forming processes using special software: DEFORM 3D, Abaqus and others, –innovative cold and hot metal forming processes, –new materials with a higher level of performance properties, –new methods used to determine true resistance of metals and alloys to defor- mation, and –physical simulation of metal and alloy forming processes. Thus, we may state a great commitment of young researchers, specialists, stu- dents and postgraduate students to development and introduction of innovative research products, having a basic and applied value for developing potential of the metal and alloy forming industry, its expansion and diversification, contributing to a successful settlement of production issues in an efficient relationship between science and the industry. Following the results of the sessions, the committee determined nominees, di- ploma and prize winners of the conference. The nomination “The best start to science” was awarded to three young re- searchers: Nikita Bunits (Moscow Institute of Steel and Alloys, Moscow), Alexandra 4 Tymchenko (Karaganda State Industrial University, Temirtau, Kazakhstan), and Ilya Tsyrganovich (the Sukhoi State Technical University of Gomel, Gomel, Belarus). The nomination “The best progress in research” was awarded to Ekaterina Ustinova (Ural Federal University, Yekaterinburg, Russia). The nomination “The best practical imple- mentation” was awarded to Denis Voroshilov (Siberian Federal University, Krasno- yarsk). The nomination “The best numerical simulation” was awarded to Denis Salikhyanov (Ural Federal University, Yekaterinburg).

  • Improving the Performance of Magnesium Alloys for Automotive Applications
    High Performance and Optimum Design of Structures and Materials 531 Improving the performance of magnesium alloys for automotive applications R. O. Hussein & D. O. Northwood Department of Mechanical, Automotive and Materials Engineering, University of Windsor, Canada Abstract Magnesium and its alloys are attractive to the automotive industry for their inherent light-weight which leads to highly fuel-efficient design. However, due to a low melting temperature (650°C), magnesium has relatively poor elevated temperature mechanical properties, e.g., creep. This has, therefore, restricted its use in applications such as engine components. Magnesium is also a highly reactive metal and has inherently poor corrosion and wear resistance. Improved corrosion and wear performance can be obtained through alloying and microstructural engineering. However, for enhanced corrosion and tribological properties, the use of surface engineering techniques involving coatings is mandatory. Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO), also known as “Micro-Arc Oxidation (MAO)”, has been used to successfully produce oxide layers on magnesium alloys with excellent tribological and corrosion resistant properties. By controlling the PEO process parameters, uniform, relatively pore-free and well adhered coatings can be produced which can provide adequate corrosion protection. The coating requirements for good tribological properties are somewhat different than for good corrosion performance. However, good tribological performance combined with good corrosion performance can

  • Magnesium Casting Technology for Structural Applications
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Journal of Magnesium and Alloys 1 (2013) 2e22 www.elsevier.com/journals/journal-of-magnesium-and-alloys/2213-9567 Full length article Magnesium casting technology for structural applications Alan A. Luo a,b,* a Department of Materials Science and Engineering, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA b Department of Integrated Systems Engineering, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, USA Abstract This paper summarizes the melting and casting processes for magnesium alloys. It also reviews the historical development of magnesium castings and their structural uses in the western world since 1921 when Dow began producing magnesium pistons. Magnesium casting technology was well developed during and after World War II, both in gravity sand and permanent mold casting as well as high-pressure die casting, for aerospace, defense and automotive applications. In the last 20 years, most of the development has been focused on thin-wall die casting ap- plications in the automotive industry, taking advantages of the excellent castability of modern magnesium alloys. Recently, the continued expansion of magnesium casting applications into automotive, defense, aerospace, electronics and power tools has led to the diversification of casting processes into vacuum die casting, low-pressure die casting, squeeze casting, lost foam casting, ablation casting as well as semi-solid casting. This paper will also review the historical, current and potential structural use of magnesium with a focus on automotive applications. The technical challenges of magnesium structural applications are also discussed. Increasing worldwide energy demand, environment protection and government regulations will stimulate more applications of lightweight magnesium castings in the next few decades.

Received: 30 October 2018; Accepted: 15 November 2018; Published: 20 November 2018 Abstract: Effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the AZ31/WE43 bimetal composites was investigated, and the optimized solution treatment and ageing treatment parameters were achieved. After heat treatment, it was found that that the high melting-point Y-rich phases and Mg-RE (rare earth) phases at the interface were distributed more uniformly, so the interfacial strength and plasticity were improved. Meanwhile, the shear strength and plasticity of AZ31 were increased, and the shear strength of WE43 was also improved by heat treatment. The evolution of interface morphologies and enhancement of the mechanical properties at the interface will be discussed in detail. Keywords: Mg/Mg bimetal composites; heat treatment; interfacial microstructure; mechanical properties; fracture behaviors 1. Introduction Magnesium alloys are becoming increasingly attractive for potential applications in aerospace, automobile, and electronics, due to the advantages of light weight, high specific strength, and high specific stiffness [1–3].

    Journal of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Sciences ISSN: 0974-2115 Friction Stir Processing of Magnesium Alloys- Review J.P. Lalith Gnanavel, S. Vijayan Department of Mechanical Engineering, SSN College of Engineering, Kalavakkam-603 110 Corresponding author: E-Mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Recently, Friction stir processing (FSP) is one of the solid state surface processing techniques used to produce surface composites. The FSP which doesn’t affects the bulk properties of the material but improves the surface properties of the material concern such as hardness, strength, ductility, corrosion resistance and formability etc. Magnesium alloy is one among the major raw materials used due to their low density and high strength-to-weight ratio. Alloys of magnesium are processed successful by FSP which are difficult by other processes. The review offers better understanding of Friction Stir Processed alloys of Magnesium. This article reviews the various mechanical and metallurgical properties along with analysis of microstructure on different magnesium alloys and FSP magnesium alloys for better understandings. KE YWORDS: Magnesium Alloys, Friction Stir Processing (FSP), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Mechanical properties, Microstructure, Hardness, Wear properties. 1.
