Acoustic emission in compressed Mg-Li and Al alloys processed by ECAP, HPT and ARB methods
2014
In the paper there are presented the results of investigations of the relations between acoustic
emission (AE) and the plastic strain mechanisms during channel-die compression of materials,
based on both Mg-Li and Al alloys, having ultra fine-grained (UFG) or nanocrystalline
structure obtained using the technique of equal channel (of both quadratic and circular section)
angular pressing (ECAP) as well as the technique of high pressure torsion (HPT). Also
the AE in compression and tensile tests of UFG (nanocrystalline) Al alloys obtained by accumulative
roll-bonding (ARB) method have been investigated. The results obtained using a
new generation AE analyzer are compared with those obtained for similar materials but not
subjected to ECAP, HPT and ARB processing. Moreover, the wavelet analysis of the detected
AE signals based on the acoustic maps (acoustograms) and spectral characteristics has been
carried out and the AE behaviour is discussed in the dislocation aspects of both plastic strain
mechanisms and possible superplastic flow in UFG or nanocrystalline materials.
