The results show that creep aging led to a slight reduction in hardness from 2.66 GPa to 2.45 GPa, primarily due to carbide coarsening. Significant irradiation hardening was observed, with hardness increasing by 87 % in the as-received condition and by 99 % in the creep-aged condition.

The combined effect of dynamic condition and loading orientation is believed to extend the ductility of magnesium alloy, while the mechanism underlying orientation-dependent dynamic deformation is still poorly understood. The dynamic mechanical behaviors as well as microstructure evolutions were evaluated on ZK60 Mg alloy via dynamic tension in both extrusion direction (ED) and transverse direction (TD) with strain rates of 2000 s<sup>−1</sup>, 3200 s<sup>−1</sup> and 4300 s<sup>−1</sup> using the split Hopkinson tensile bar (SHTB), and quasi-static tension with 0.001 s<sup>−1</sup> strain rate. Subsequent electron back-scattered diffraction (EBSD) observation and scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of fracture surfaces, employing an interrupt strain test method, was conducted to elucidate the loading orientation correlations for dynamic deformation. The dynamic deformation mechanisms in the initial stage, are primarily governed by non-basal slip in ED and extension twinning in TD, as indicated by Schmid factor (SF) calculations and confirmed by misorientation angle distributions. This renders positive strain rate sensitivity (SRS) for the former, whereas rate-insensitive behavior for the latter. The non-basal slip allows rapid dislocation multiplication in the ED, while the phenomenon is delayed in the TD until about 0.05 strain, at which the SRS is highlighted. More intense interaction between first-formed twins and later-activated dislocations contributes to higher strain hardening and elongation due to the dynamic loading in TD. In the later stages of dynamic strain, the adiabatic temperature of ∼80 °C in TD is also regarded as the source of the decreasing strain hardening and increasing elongation, evidenced by the fracture mode transitions from quasi-brittle to ductile compared to quasi-static tension.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":385,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science and Engineering: A","volume":"931 ","pages":"Article 148228"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143683498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mechanical tests including uniaxial tension tests, and layer and disk compression tests were conducted at various temperatures (25–250 °C) to obtain anisotropic data. A part of the experimental data was utilized to identify the viscoplastic self-consistent polycrystal plasticity (VPSC) model based on the texture information of the material.

These parameters were next employed to calibrate three yield functions and compared with corresponding results calibrated based on the experimental data.
