The annealed AA-6063 alloy was processed up to three passes of MDF at ambient temperature. Three passes of this process were also applied to the solution-treated AA-6063 at ambient temperature and 177 ◦C. Microstructural investigations demonstrated that the MDF process led to a significant reduction in the average grain size as well as a considerable increase in the fraction of low angle grain boundaries. Texture analysis revealed that copper and Goss textures were mainly developed within the annealed and solution-treated samples of AA-6063, respectively.

  • Welding of Magnesium Alloys
    Chapter 6 Welding of Magnesium Alloys Parviz Asadi, Kamel Kazemi-Choobi and Amin Elhami Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/47849 1. Introduction Magnesium is the sixth most abundant element on the Earth’s surface, with virtually inex- haustible supplies in the oceans. It is the third most plentiful element dissolved in seawater, with an approximate concentration of 0.14% (Busk, 1987). Over recent years the industrial output of magnesium alloys has been rising by almost 20% per annum. Magnesium and its alloys, as the lightest structural material, are about 40% lighter than aluminium and as much as about 78% lighter than steel. It is demonstrated that using magnesium alloys results in a 22–70% weight reduction, compared to using alternative materials (Kulekci, 2008). Magne- sium alloys have excellent specific strength, excellent sound damping capabilities, good cast-ability, hot formability, excellent machinability, good electromagnetic interference shielding, and recyclability (Haferkamp et al., 2000), (Mordike and Ebert, 2001), (Pastor et al., 2000). Moreover, magnesium ignites with difficulty in air due to its high heat capacity. Some disadvantages of magnesium are presented based on the following, Low elastic modulus; High degree of shrinkage on solidification; High chemical reactivity. Additionally, these alloys have limited fatigue and creep resistance at elevated temperatures (Mordike and Ebert, 2001). Because of the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) crystal structure, magnesium alloys also have a limited ductility and cold workability at room temperature (Sanders et al., 1999). These alloys have about the same corrosion resistance in common environments as mild steel, but are less corrosion resistant than aluminium alloys (Busk, 1987).

  • Crystallographic Textures
    EPJ Web of Conferences 155, 00005 (2017) DOI: 10.1051/epjconf/201715500005 JDN 22 Crystallographic textures Vincent Kloseka CEA, IRAMIS, Laboratoire Léon Brillouin, 91191 Gif-sur-Yvette Cedex, France Abstract. In material science, crystallographic texture is an important microstructural parameter which directly determines the anisotropy degree of most physical properties of a polycrystalline material at the macro scale. Its characterization is thus of fundamental and applied importance, and should ideally be performed prior to any physical property measurement or modeling. Neutron diffraction is a tool of choice for characterizing crystallographic textures: its main advantages over other existing techniques, and especially over the X-ray diffraction techniques, are due to the low neutron absorption by most elements. The obtained information is representative of a large number of grains, leading to a better accuracy of the statistical description of texture. 1. Introduction A macroscopic physical property is a relation between a macroscopic stimulus and a macroscopic response [1]. In their general form, such relations are tensorial to account for possible anisotropy, and tensorial field variables have to be considered. For instance, electrical conductivity describes the relation between the current density vector j and the electric (vector) field E by application of a second order tensor, the conductivity tensor . Or elasticity theory establishes the well-known generalized Hooke law, which is a linear relation between the stress 1 and strain tensors, which are second order symmetric tensors, introducing the 4th order elastic stiffness tensor C. A single crystal being intrinsically an anisotropic (although periodic) arrangement of atoms, most single crystal physical properties are anisotropic, i.e., they are dependent on the crystallographic direction: isotropy is the exception.

One such area, where alloys with complex compositions are already found, is in filler metals used for joining. In soldering (<450 ◦C) and brazing (>450 ◦C), filler metal alloys are taken above their liquidus temperature and used to form a metallic bond between two components, which remain both unmelted and largely unchanged throughout the process.
