It was shown that in ultrafine-grained nanostructured Cu processed by severe plastic deformation and subjected to cold rolling and annealing, the level and character of Young's modulus anisotropy is significantly different from values corresponding to cold rolled and annealed coarse-grained Cu. The crystallographic texture formation processes are investigated in these states in parallel. The comparative study of the elastic behaviour and crystallographic texture lets us draw conclusions concerning the leading role of not only developing crystallographic texture but a specific defect structure of grain boundaries as well in the formation of unusual elastic properties of ultrafine-grained materials processed by severe plastic deformation.

The present paper analyzed the microstructural characteristics and the mechanical properties of a Ti–Nb–Zr–Fe–O alloy of β-Ti type obtained by combining severe plastic deformation (SPD), for which the total reduction was of etot = 90%, with two variants of super-transus solution treatment (ST). The objective was to obtain a low Young’s modulus with sufficient high strength in purpose to use the alloy as a biomaterial for orthopedic implants. The microstructure analysis was conducted through X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) investigations. The analyzed mechanical properties reveal promising values for yield strength (YS) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of about 770 and 1100 MPa, respectively, with a low value of Young’s modulus of about 48–49 GPa. The conclusion is that satisfactory mechanical properties for this type of alloy can be obtained if considering a proper combination of SPD + ST parameters and a suitable content of β-stabilizing alloying elements, especially the Zr/Nb ratio.

A study was carried out on aging behaviour of a 6082 alloy processed by two different severe plastic deformation techniques: ECAP and asymmetric rolling. Both techniques were able to generate an ultrafine-grained structure in samples processed at room temperature. It was stated that severe straining promotes marked changes in the postdeformation aging kinetics. The peaks of β′′/β′ transition phases were anticipated and of progressively reduced intensity over the coarse grained alloy. A further peak accounting for onset of recrystallization also appeared in the most severely deformed samples. Full consistency in peak shape and position was found when comparing materials processed by ECAP and asymmetric rolling. Isothermal aging treatments performed at 180°C revealed that in the severely deformed samples, aging became so fast that the hardness curves continuously decreased due to overwhelming effects of structure restoration. On the contrary, aging at 130°C offers good opportunities for fully exploiting the precipitate hardening effects in the ultrafine-grained alloy.

The paper reports on the effect of severe plastic deformation on mechanical properties of an Al-4.57Mg-0.35Mn-0.2Sc-0.09Zr (in wt. pct.) alloy processed by equal channel angular pressing followed by cold rolling (CR). The sheets of the 5024 alloy with coarse grained (CG) structure exhibited a yield stress (YS) near 410 MPa and an ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 480 MPa, while the YS and UTS of this material with ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure increased to 530 and 560 MPa, respectively. On the other hand, the elongation to failure decreased by a factor of 2 and 4 after CR and CR following ECAP, respectively. It was shown that dislocation strengthening attributed to extensive CR plays a major role in achieving high strength of this alloy. Besides these macroscopic characteristics, jerky flow caused by the Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) instability of plastic deformation was examined. The formation of UFG structure results in a transition from mixed type A+B to pure type B PLC serrations. No such effect on the serrations type was observed after CR.

The effect of annealing on dynamic Young’s modulus, E, of ultrafine-grained (UFG) copper obtained by combined severe plastic deformation (SPD) is investigated. It is established that Young’s modulus in the SPD-prepared samples exceeds that in the coarse-grained fully annealed (CGFA) samples by 10 to 20 %. Isothermal annealing at elevated temperatures between 90 and 630°С leads to a sharp decrease of Young’s modulus for annealing temperatures above 210°С. After annealing at 410°С, the value of E reaches its minimal value that is 35 % lower than E in CGFA samples (total change in E is about 47 % of the initial value). Further annealing at higher temperatures leads to an increase in Young’s modulus. It is shown, that the unusual behavior of Young’s modulus is caused by formation of the <111> axial texture in the SPD-treated samples which then is replaced by the <001> texture during the post-SPD heat treatment.

Abstract This paper presents the results of the microstructure and crystallographic texture investigations of the Cu-Zn alloys system with different stacking fault energies (SFE) subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and subsequent flat rolling. It is shown that ECAP leads to the formation of an ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure. Further flat rolling is accompanied by a decrease in the size of structural elements and the formation of nanoscale twins, which are more likely to be detected in an alloy with a lower SFE. As the deformation degree increases, the main crystallographic textures components of the investigated alloys become Brass and Goss components.

Systematized literature data related to the study of mechanical and functional properties of ultrafine-grained and nanostructured metallic materials processed by deformation methods are presented. Special attention is given to the mechanical behavior of titanium materials under tension, as well as under impact and cyclic loads. The advantage of the materials under investigation over their coarse-grained analogues is shown.

The mechanical and physical properties of ultrafine-grained titanium alloys produced by severe plastic deformation are considered. It is found that the formation of ultrafine-grained structure in these materials causes a significant enhancement in their mechanical properties at room temperature and in their resistance to hydrogen embrittlement as well as a change in their acoustic properties. Moreover, superplasticity is realized in these materials at less elevated temperatures relative to the respective coarse grained counterparts. It is shown that the above changes in material properties permit optimization of conditions by the production of items from the titanium alloys, e.g. medical implants having the requisite strength and stepped waveguides having long life even in the high power density conditions of an ultrasound system.

Ultrafine grained materials fabricated by severe plastic deformation exhibit both superior and inferior mechanical properties, as the prominent structural materials, compared to coarse grained counterparts. The superior mechanical properties are ultrahigh strength and exceptional ductility at high temperatures (i.e., superplasticity). The inferior mechanical properties are lack of strain hardenability and room temperature ductility. In this study, the relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties of ultrafine grained materials fabricated by severe plastic deformation is investigated in order to provide insight broadening their future applicability.
