Investigation of basic deformation mechanisms of magnesium alloys by means of advanced in-situ methods and theoretical modeling
Čapek, Jan ; Mathis, Kristián (advisor) ; Landa, Michal (referee) ; Šiška, Filip (referee)
The work is focused on developing testing methods for investigating of the deformation mechanisms of magnesium alloys. The work involves the measurement of in-situ acoustic emission and neutron diffraction and comparison to the theoretical models. Mg + 1wt.% Zr alloy was selected for investigation of the compression - tension asymmetry. Advanced analysis of acoustic emission and neutron diffraction data revealed activation of different slip systems during deformation. Moreover, the different evolution of twinning was explained. The same methods were used to investigate the aluminum influence on deformation mechanisms. The hardening of basal slip and twinning and increasing importance of prismatic slip was observed.

Minárik, Peter ; Král, Robert (advisor) ; Chráska, Pavel (referee) ; Landa, Michal (referee)
Title: Effect of composition and microstructure on mechanical and corrosion properties in magnesium alloys with a potential for medical applications. Author: RNDr. Peter MINÁRIK Department / Institute: Department of Physics of Materials, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague Supervisor of the doctoral thesis: Doc. Dr. rer. nat. Robert Král, PhD., Department of Physics of Materials, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague Abstract: Doctoral thesis is focused on the effect of thermomechanical processing through ECAP on the microstructure, mechanical properties and corrosion properties. The investigation was performed on the extruded magnesium alloys AE21, AE42 and LAE442, because their potential for medical applications. Microstructure development was characterized in detail by scanning electron microscopy together with detection of back scattered electros, transmission electron microscopy and positron annihilation spectroscopy. Development of mechanical properties was investigated by tensile and compression deformation tests and microhardness measurement. Corrosion resistance was investigated by linear polarization method. Fine-grain structure with grain boundaries with high angle misorientation was achieved by the thermomechanical processing. The resulting...

Study of cooperative dislocation phenomena in solids by the acoustic emission technique
Knapek, Michal ; Chmelík, František (advisor) ; Haušild, Petr (referee) ; Landa, Michal (referee)
Title: Study of cooperative dislocation phenomena in solids by the acoustic emis- sion technique Author: Michal KNAPEK Department: Department of Physics of Materials Supervisor: doc. RNDr. František Chmelík, CSc., Department of Physics of Materials Abstract: Plastic deformation of micron-scale crystalline materials differs con- siderably from bulk specimens, as it is characterized by random strain bursts. Three categories of metallic samples were investigated in this thesis: micron- scale copper micropillars with varied geometries, submillimeter-scale aluminum microwires, and aluminum and aluminum-magnesium salt-replicated foams. Very precise fabrication methods and sensitive measurement set-ups consisting of uni- axial compression and tensile tests with concurrent acoustic emission (AE) record- ing were developed. These fine methods allowed for investigations of effects re- lated to plastic deformation at micrometer scales, i.e. the dislocation dynamics associated with the stress drops. Size effects in plastic deformation, as well as clear correlations between the stress drops and the AE events, were found in mi- crosamples, confirming that dislocation avalanches are indeed responsible for the stochastic character of deformation processes also at microscales. Open-cell pure aluminum and aluminum-magnesium...

Influence of Solid Solution Elements and Precipitate Formation on the Mechanical Behaviour of Magnesium Alloys

Title: Influence of Solid Solution Elements and Precipitate Formation on the Mechanical Behaviour of Magnesium Alloys Author: Mgr. Kseniya ILLKOVÁ Department / Institute: Department of Physics of Materials, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague Supervisor of the doctoral thesis: Doc.RNDr.František Chmelík, CSc. Department of Physics of Materials, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University in Prague Abstract: Mg-1 wt. % Mn alloys containing about 1 wt.% of calcium (MX10), aluminium (AM11), cerium(ME11), yttrium (MW11), neodymium (MN11) and 8 wt.% of aluminium (AM81) were indirectly extruded with two different speeds. The partially recrystallised microstructures obtained in MX10, AM11, ME11 and MW11 after slow extrusion exhibited bimodal grain size distributions. Only in the case of AM81 and MN11 a fully recrystallised microstructure was found, indicating differences in the grain nucleation rate during recrystallisation. In these alloys, the weakest texture and, correspondingly, the lowest asymmetry in mechanical properties were also observed. The acoustic emission technique was used to reveal dislocation or twin controlled deformation in differently textured fractions of the microstructure during tensile and compression testing. A direct correlation between the acoustic...
