Nucleation and propagation of {101¯2} twins in AZ31 magnesium alloy
Abstract
Nucleation and propagation of tensile twins in magnesium alloy AZ31 are investigated for a large number of twins at an early stage of their development. High-resolution electron backscatter diffraction (HREBSD) techniques are employed to give additional insights. Correlations with grain orientation, boundary misorientation and active slip systems are observed in the region of twins that arise at grain boundaries. Two types of twin are …
