Funded Activity Summary

Modelling of Nanostructuring of Bulk Metallic Materials by Severe Plastic Deformation. The use of ultrafine grained alloys is expected to lead to significant breakthroughs in relation to fuel-efficient cars, light weight/high strength designs in aerospace and structural applications, and bio-medical implants. It will provide a wider market for such metals and create niche applications in domestic and export manufacturing industry. The development of technologically viable processes of nanostructuring hinges on the fundamental understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of microstructure and texture development. The knowledge base to be developed through this project will bring Australia to the international forefront in the area of structural nanomaterials and prepare the ground for future frontier technologies.
