Effect of alternating bending on the structure and properties of strips from AZ31 magnesium alloy

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

The mechanical properties and microstructure of magnesium alloy AZ31 are studied after several cycles of alternating bending (AB) and after various combinations of monotone deformation, AB, and annealing. It is assumed that twinning affects the decrease in the yield strength of the alloy after a few AB cycles.
