Summary: The study reveals the complex relationship among microstructures and mechanical behaviors of Al0.1CoCrFeNi high-entropy alloys after cold rolling and annealing. Cold rolling induces grain coarsening and formation of lamellar slip bands, while facilitating texture evolution and novel strength anisotropy. However, the overall strength is more influenced by dynamic grain refinement rather than increased dislocation density.

Summary: The study investigated the texture evolution of a Mg-Zn-Ca plate during cold rolling and subsequent annealing. It was found that basal slip was the main deformation mode and prismatic slip preserved the TD-split texture. Pyramidal slip caused the widening of the basal texture. Grain nucleation occurred at grain boundaries, deformation twins, and near precipitates, with minimal texture change.

Summary: The microstructural characteristic evolution during thermomechanical processing of Ti-29Nb-9Ta-10Zr alloy was investigated. The alloy underwent multiple rolling processes, and the microstructural evolution occurred with increasing thickness reduction. The experimental results showed that finer grain size could be achieved by adjusting the heat treatment conditions. Two phases were observed through X-ray diffraction and SEM techniques, and the parameters and dimensions of the crystallites, as well as the micro-deformations at the crystalline network level, were determined. The β-Ti phase underwent refinement during the rolling processes, resulting in ultrafine/nano grain size, but its growth rate was slow during recrystallization and aging treatments.

Summary: This paper reports the application of cold-sample rolling (CSR) processing in a Mg-6Al-1Zn alloy sheet, which resulted in a high fraction of double twins and a substantial texture-weakening effect. Compared to high-temperature rolling (HTR) processing, CSR processing induced a relatively higher texture-weakening effect. The results indicate that twinning-mediated static recrystallization is essential for texture weakening in Al-concentrated Mg-alloy sheets.

Summary: In this study, the static recrystallization behavior and basal texture change of the cold-rolled AZXW1100 alloy during annealing were investigated. Highly deformed shear bands were observed in the cold-rolled alloy sheet, which caused rapid recrystallization at the beginning of annealing. The recrystallized grains nucleated in the shear bands guided the overall recrystallization behavior and led to the formation of a diamond-like or TD-split texture.

Summary: This study investigated the warm temperature deformation behavior of the Ti-6Al-4V alloy through tension and compression tests. It was found that the material exhibited low compressive formability and premature fracture at lower temperatures, while showing increased work hardening capacity in tensile mode. The higher activity of pyramidal slip systems in tensile mode contributed to substructure development and higher strain accommodation.

Summary: The effects of Al content on the texture evolution of Mg-xAl-1Zn-0.1Ca-0.2Y alloy sheets during hot rolling, cold rolling, and subsequent annealing were investigated. A lower Al content resulted in delayed recrystallization and changed the basal pole figure shape of the annealed sheets. The texture of the annealed sheets changed from RD-split to diamond and TD-split, affecting the Schmid factor for basal slip.

Summary: In this study, the changes in microstructure, texture, and magnetic properties during the unidirectional cold rolling of a Fe-21Cr-5Mn-1.5Ni alloy were investigated. The results showed that the thickness of the grain along the normal direction reduced more in austenite than in ferrite, and the strain was more partitioned in austenite. The saturation magnetization increased with the increase in cold rolling reduction, and the strain induced martensite (SIM) was similar to 11% after 80% cold rolling. The development of specific textures was observed in both austenite and ferrite after cold rolling, and both texture and strain played a role in the change in magnetic properties.

Summary: Compared to the conventional sheet metal forming process, incremental sheet forming achieves higher limiting strain and increased formability. However, the higher strain level may result in non-uniform thinning and different levels of deformation in different sections of the component. This study investigates the deformation mechanism during incremental sheet metal forming by studying the microstructural and texture evolution in a truncated cone. The results show the formation of subgrains and the evolution of shear texture, indicating the presence of through thickness shear and its contribution to the higher forming limit in the process.

Summary: The present study investigates the hot deformation behavior of a new Ti-6Al-4Mo-1V-0.1Si alloy. Flow characteristics were studied at strain rates ranging from 0.01s(-1) to 10s(-1) and temperatures from 800 to 1050 degrees C. The flow stress decreases with increasing deformation temperature and decreasing strain rate. Flow softening occurs at lower temperatures (800-900 degrees C) due to lamellae kinking, while flat flow curve characteristics are observed at higher temperatures (950-1050 degrees C) due to a balance of dynamic recovery and recrystallization. Constitutive modeling based on the Arrhenius hyperbolic sine equation predicts the flow stress characteristics during hot deformation. The strain rate sensitivity map was created for 0.69 strain. The optimal hot deformation zone was observed at 0.01s(-1) in the temperature range of 925-1050 degrees C, and at strain rates of 1s(-1) and 5s(-1) from 900 to 975 degrees C.

Summary: The effect of weld chemistry on the microstructure and texture development during shielded metal arc welding of alloy 2507 has been studied. The study found that the weldments were mainly comprised of three zones: the base metal zone, heat affected zone, and weld metal zone. The fraction of austenite in the weld metal zone and heat affected zone decreased after welding. The study also observed different morphologies of austenite and a stronger texture for ferrite compared to austenite in the annealed base metal.
