Abstract
Texture development in magnesium alloy AZ31 was studied by uniaxial compression tests at temperatures, strain rates and final strains ranging from 573 to 773 K, 1.0 × 10 −3 to 5.0 × 10 −5 s −1 and −0.2 to −1.5, respectively. Fiber texture was formed in all of the deformation conditions. The main component of the texture varied depending on deformation conditions; it appeared about 33–38° away from the basal pole after the deformation at higher temperatures and lower strain rates. This can be attributed to the increased activity of the secondary pyramidal slip system. With a decrease in temperatures and an increase in strain rate, the tilting angle of the main component (compression plane) from the basal pole decreased down to about 20°. Construction of a basal fiber texture was detected after deformations at the lowest temperature and high strain rates.
