Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The driving force for {10-12}-type deformation twins nucleation was found to be much higher than that of (basal-type) dislocation formation. The nucleation site for deformation twins in poly-crystalline magnesium is likely to be mainly grain boundary; in particular grain boundary, which has a high grain boundary energy, readily become the nucleation site. The alloying element does not affect the nucleation site, but does the volume fraction of twin formation. These results reveal that grain boundary control, e.g., grain boundary segregation, leads to the prevention or enhancement of twin formation. As for the single-crystalline magnesium, the point defect, such as the vacancy, became the nucleation site for deformation twins.
