Funded Activity Summary

Nanostructured Al Alloys: SPD Processing and Properties. The use of conventional Al alloys in automotive and airspace industries is often restricted by their low room temperature strength. Development of high strength Al alloys which could replace much more expensive Ti alloys or heavier steel in constructions is a very promising way to reduce structural weight and cost. Using the Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) technique, namely high pressure torsion and equal-channel angular extrusion, we aim to develop a new method for production of bulk nanostructured Al alloy with high room temperature strength for automotive and airspace applications.
