The model stands out by its ability to efficiently and accurately calculate the strength-ductility of Mg alloys influenced by texture using a constitutive equation. The proposed model effectively captures the changes in tensile flow curves during the weakening process from strong basal to fiber texture. It explains how divergence weakening promotes twinning and inhibits slip, leading to reduced yield strength and increased uniform elongation. The strength-ductility relationship for the two main texture adjustment methods, divergence and deviation, is shown to vary with adjustment angles. The model emphasizes that non-basal slip dominance during early deformation significantly enhances strength, while twinning contributes the least. Conversely, basal slip dominance is optimal for improving ductility, whereas non-basal slip proves the least effective. By adjusting model parameters, the impact of alloying on strength-ductility trade-off is evaluated, revealing that reducing the activation differences in deformation mechanisms can improve the overall material performance. These findings provide valuable insights for optimizing process design to achieve a balanced strength and ductility in Mg alloys.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":367,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Materials Processing Technology","volume":"338 ","pages":"Article 118755"},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143387638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By incorporating a liquid substrate, this technology stabilizes the printing process, enhances overall print quality, and mitigates issues such as the coffee ring effect. Despite these benefits, printability challenges remain, primarily due to interference from residual charges and the complex solute migration influenced by ink rheology. To address these, this study employed pulse signal modulation, successfully neutralizing residual charges and enhancing printing process stability. Additionally, key EHD printing parameters—pressure, printing height, and voltage—were optimized to further improve reliability and printability. The study also delved into the impact of ink rheology on printed structure morphology and, consequently, on the embedded morphology. Specifically, it analyzed how variations in rheological properties of low-viscosity inks influenced the printed structure, which in turn affected the final embedded morphology. A comprehensive mapping of these influences was developed, revealing correlations between printed structure morphology and embedded morphology.

It was also determined that removal rate increases most drastically when the abrasive grit of SAG pad and ceria slurry are of comparable size.

In this study, an asymmetric Z-shape aluminium profile was manufactured using sideways extrusion at different speeds and the corresponding numerical simulation was conducted to analyse the extrudate shape, welding quality, microstructural and mechanical properties. The bending mechanism of extrudate, resulting from the non-uniform metal flow during extrusion, was identified. The curvature radius was found to depend on the average exit velocity and the velocity gradient along the transverse direction both of which increase with increasing extrusion speed. Improvements in welding quality and increased recrystallisation fraction during extrusion were quantitatively predicted using developed subroutines and these predications aligned well with the results from post-extrusion examination.
