    Influence of Multi Axial Forging (MAF) on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Cu-Ti Alloy
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Ramesh, S.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.; Gopi, K.R.
    Multi axial forging (MAF) is one among the severe plastic deformation (SPD) processes, where large strains are imposed into the component. In the present work, as-received Cu-1.5%Ti alloy was subjected to MAF for 2 and 4 cycles at room temperature. Microstructure showed grain refinement after 2 and 4 cycles. Average grain size obtained for MAF processed samples after 2 and 4 cycles are 120 μm and 40 μm, respectively compared to initial grain size of 800 μm. The Mechanical properties were analyzed for as-received and MAF processed samples. Tensile test showed increased ultimate tensile strength (493 MPa) for MAF 4-cycle sample compared to as-received (191 MPa) condition with accumulated strain of 2.18 for 4 cycles. Increase in hardness was observed for MAF processed sample of 143 Hv for 4-cycle compared to as-received sample of 67 Hv. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd.

    Microstructural and mechanical characterisation of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy processed by multi-directional cryo-forging
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2021) Ramesh, S.; Anne, G.; Naik, G.M.; Jagadeesh, C.; Shivananda Nayaka, H.S.
    Aim of the present investigation is to study the microstructural and mechanical properties of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy before and after multi-direction forging (MDF) at cryogenic condition up to 3 cycles. Microstructure evolution of specimen was examined using optical microscope and orientation imaging microscopy as well as X-ray diffraction. Mechanical properties were measured by tensile test and Vickers micro hardness. Microstructural investigation shows that after 3 cycle of MDF average grain size was reduced to 8 μm with low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) and high dislocation density. Mechanical examination displays an improvement in hardness, yield strength and ultimate tensile strength is due to increases in grain boundaries and strain hardening effect. After 3 cycles of MDF process with cumulative strain ςΔϵ = 3.64 led to the formation of fine grain structure, and microhardness were observed to be 168 HV. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
