The plastic flow behavior of a newly developed high ductility magnesium alloy, Mg-4Al-2Sn-Y-Nd, was investigated by hot compression from 200 to 400 ℃ with a strain rate of 1.5×10-3 to 7.5 s-1.

The results reveal that the strain rate sensitivity factor （m） of the alloy is much lower than that of the AZ31 alloy, which implies that the alloy should be more suitable for processing at high strain rate. The constitutive relationship of the alloy deformed at elevated temperature was obtained by plotting the experimental data. The stress exponent of the alloy is 10.33, which reveals that climb-controlled dislocations creep is the dominated deformation mechanism. The processing-map technique was used to determine the practical processing window. The proper deformation temperature and strain rate of the cast alloy were determined as 350-400 ℃ and 0.01-0.03 s-1, respectively.展开更多

All specimens were prepared in the rolling direction. The forming limit diagrams （FLDs） of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet were determined experimentally by conducting stretch-forming tests at room temperature, 100, 200 and 300 ℃ Compared with the as-received sheet, the lowest limited strain of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet with tilted texture in the FLD increased by 79% at room temperature and 104% at 100 ℃. The texture also affected the extension of the forming limit curves （FLC） in the FLD. However, the FLCs of two kinds of sheets almost overlapped at temperature above 200 ℃. It can be concluded that the reduction of （0002） texture intensity is effective to the improvement of formability not only at room temperature but also at low-and-medium temperature. The effect of texture on FLDs becomes weak with increasing temperature.展开更多
