Cantergiani, E.; Weißensteiner, I.; Grasserbauer, J.; Falkinger, G.; Pogatscher, S.; Roters, F.: Influence of Hot Band Annealing on Cold-Rolled Microstructure and Recrystallization in AA 6016. Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A 54, pp. 75 - 96 (2023)
Max Planck scientists design a process that merges metal extraction, alloying and processing into one single, eco-friendly step. Their results are now published in the journal Nature.
Many important phenomena occurring in polycrystalline materials under large plastic strain, like microstructure, deformation localization and in-grain texture evolution can be predicted by high-resolution modeling of crystals. Unfortunately, the simulation mesh gets distorted during the deformation because of the heterogeneity of the plastic…
