The Development of High Strength Aluminium and Magnesium Alloys Using "Edge-to-edge" Matching Model

扩散控制相变的理论结晶学“边到边”匹配模型将在计算机模拟的辅助下应用于改进的工业铝和镁合金的实际开发中。该模型将被用来增强沉淀硬化响应，并在这些轻合金中确定更有效的晶粒细化剂。目标是开发一种具有良好延展性的高强度铝合金和一种具有良好高温蠕变抗力的高强度镁合金。还将制作一种计算机程序，帮助确定特定轻合金的最有效晶粒度细化剂。

The theoretical, crystallographic "edge-to-edge" matching model for diffusion-controlled phase transformations will be applied to the practical development of improved industrial aluminium and magnesium alloys with assistance of computer simulations. The model will be used to enhance the precipitation hardening response and to identify more effective grain refiners in these light alloys. The aims will be the development of one high strength aluminium alloy with good ductility and one high strength magnesium alloy with good creep resistance at elevated temperatures. A computer program that will help to identify the most effective grain refiners for specific light alloys will also be produced.
