In order to study the effect of process parameters on microstructure evolution during multi-step forging,recrystallization and grain growth models were implemented into a finite element code,then coupling between thermo-mechanical and microstructure evolution was realized.

Microstructural evolution and mechanical property of ME20M magnesium alloy processed by multidirectional forging;

A combination large deformation mode of multidirectional forging and sequent rolling is proposed for producing high performance aluminum alloy ultra-thick plates in this paper.

Effect of multiple forging process on microstructure and mechanical properties of wrought magnesium alloy AZ31

As one of severe plastic deformation process, multiple forging is a versatile technique for the great grain refinement and improvement of mechanical properties.

The evolution of the grain orientation of AZ80 magnesium alloy during multiple forging process is examined qualitatively using X-ray diffraction and optical microscopy.
