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...
