Abstract
Microstructures of metal micro parts after microforming at elevated temperatures must be evaluated due to mechanical properties depend on average grain size. In this work, the effects of specimen diameter on the microstructure and microhardness of a hot-extruded AZ31B magnesium alloy were studied. Obvious size effect on microstructure and microhardness of the alloy could be observed. The size effects could be explained by strain distribution and dislocation density differences between the two kinds of specimens.
