Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Metallurgy
  • Mechanical Engineering

Background:

  • Magnesium alloys are attractive for structural applications due to their low density.
  • Achieving a balance between high strength and ductility in magnesium alloys remains a significant challenge.
  • Microstructural engineering is crucial for optimizing the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and fabricate a high strength and ductile Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloy.
  • To investigate the local strain evolution during plastic deformation using digital image correlation (DIC).
  • To understand the relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties.

Main Methods:

  • Alloy design and fabrication of Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr.
  • High-resolution digital image correlation (DIC) for local strain analysis.
  • Microstructural characterization (e.g., phase identification, grain size analysis).

Main Results:

  • The alloy exhibited a bimodal microstructure with β, γ', and LPSO phases.
  • Increasing extrusion ratio enhanced the volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) from 30% to 75%.
  • A high strength-ductility synergy was observed, attributed to grain refinement, β particles, and LPSO phases.

Conclusions:

  • The Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloy demonstrates excellent strength-ductility synergy.
  • Strain transfer mechanisms and the presence of LPSO phases promote uniform plastic deformation, enhancing ductility.
  • Microstructural control via extrusion ratio is key to achieving superior mechanical performance in magnesium alloys.
