Funded Activity Summary

Development of a Superplastic Forming Capabilities in Magnesium-Based Alloys through Processing using Severe Plastic Deformation. This research will provide a basis for advancing the structural use of magnesium alloys in the building and transportation industries. It is anticipated the project will lower the cost of producing lightweight structures and extend the range of alloys that can be used in such applications. With the growing magnesium industry in Australia, and with the potential for Australia to become a major world supplier of magnesium, the development of advanced processing technology for magnesium-based alloys is of national importance. The project will play a vital role in strengthening the Australian technological position and increasing the opportunities for professional Australians.
