Introduction and ScopeThe demand for lightweight metals and related alloys is still the most suitable solution to many high-tech applications, including sports equipment and automotive components where alternate movements require low inertia
Eight research articles have been published in this Special Issue of Metals and three lightweight metal families, aluminium, titanium and magnesium have been impacted
The Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) process is a useful process for metallurgical studies of light alloys and especially for Mg, as shown by Ou et al [7], with the paper dealing with the Mg97Zn1Y2 alloy powders reinforced by Y2O3 particles prepared by simultaneous synthesising of Y2O3 particles and compacting of mechanically alloyed powders using equal channel angular pressing
Summary
Introduction and ScopeThe demand for lightweight metals and related alloys is still the most suitable solution to many high-tech applications, including sports equipment and automotive components where alternate movements require low inertia. This Special Issue covers a wide scope in the research field of lightweight metals and alloys and has been intended to provide a space for sharing new ideas, and new research results for the various aspects of light alloy processing and characterisation.
