Crystal plasticity based constitutive modeling of ZEK100 magnesium alloy combined with in-situ HEXRD experiments

In the current works, both micro- and macro-mechanical properties of a hexagonal close-packed (HCP) polycrystalline ZEK100 magnesium alloy were investigated. In the experimental perspective, in-situ high energy X-ray diffraction (HEXRD) from a synchrotron source was conducted during the uniaxial tension along the rolling direction (RD) and the transverse direction (TD) to measure the lattice strain evolutions and stress-strain behaviors. In the …
