Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Al-8Mg-0.2Zr alloy has been developed from the first-principles calculations. The aim of this study is achieving high strength and good ductility of Al-8Mg-0.2Zr alloy by work hardening, precipitation strengthening and grain refinement strengthening. As a result, the grain refinement by friction stir processing was effective as a means to achieve high strength and good ductility of Al-8Mg-0.2Zr. The newly developed Al-8Mg-0.2Zr alloy after friction stir processing exhibited high tensile strength of 435 MPa along with the large elongation to failure up to 40 %.
