Effects of RE on the Microstructure of Mg-SZn-4Al Magnesium Alloys

The effects of RE on the microstrcture of as-cast Mg-8Zn-4Al magnesium alloys were investigated. The results show that the solidification range of Mg-8Zn-4Al-xRE alloys increases with RE additions. A binary eutectic reaction can arise and produce a new phase （Mg：Al：Zn：RE） and the temperature of phase transformation point of the new phase is 412.85 C. In Mg-8Zn-4Al-1.5RE alloy, a small amount of Mg：Al：Zn：RE phase and ε phases are found besides a（Mg）,φand r phases. Also microstructures of Mg-8Zn-4Al alloys can be refined by addition of 1.5% RE obviously.     

Effects of RE on the Microstructure of Mg-8Zn-4Al Magnesium Alloys

IntroductionMagnesium alloys are called green-engineeringmaterial with great development potential becauseof its low density, high specific strength and stiff-ness, superior damping capacity, good electromag-netic shielding characteristics and good machinabil-ity[1]. However, the number of commercially avail-able magnesium alloys is still limited especially forapplication at elevated temperatures. The applica-tions of most common magnesium alloys such asAZ91 and AM60 with outstanding mechani…

铝合金板材冲压成形极限虚拟预测

利用虚拟成形极限应变(FLD)试验,并根据虚拟试验过程中的“分叉失稳”和有限元后置处理过程中的“应变集中”现象,虚拟性地求解了铝合金板材的失稳极限应变。试验表明,虚拟FLD试验方法避免了采用塑性失稳准则及损伤断裂失稳准则时人为因素的影响,利用虚拟极限应变所拟合出的FLD曲线与实测FLD拟合曲线具有比较接近的几何图形,虚拟FLD试验可替代或部分替代实测FLD试验。
