| Abstract Scope |
Several types of cyclic stress were applied to specimens made of an extruded magnesium alloy, AZ31, to elucidate twinning, detwinning, and fatigue crack initiation mechanisms by EBSD analysis. In both the texture and the random orientation, twinning occurred under compressive stress exceeding the compressive yield strength. Detwinning occurred only in the texture upon the subsequent application of tensile stress less than the tensile yield strength of monotonic loading, whereas detwinning did not occur in the structure with random orientation. Under compression-compression fatigue test, successive twinning occurred, which changed the orientation of the basal plane. As a result, the random orientation of grains changed to the texture in which the normal of the basal plane was parallel to the loading direction. Cracks were formed along the boundary of grains with a high Schmid factor of the basal slip system and the misfit of grain on both sides was large. |
