Investigation on the Sub-structure development in HSA6 alloys to maximise strength via Thermomechanical simulations

高强度铝合金HSA6有多种用途，包括汽车、航空航天和军事工业。由于变形而形成的子结构影响材料的强度和延展性。材料变形可以使用热机械模拟来模拟，以了解温度、应变速率和挤压比等调节变量如何影响子结构的形成。有了这个，人们可以通过研究加工条件、所得微观结构和机械性能之间的联系，了解大量关于控制HSA6合金强化机制的潜在机制。

High-strength aluminium alloy HSA6 has several uses, including those in the automotive, aerospace, and military industries. The sub-structure that develops as a result of deformation affects both the strength and ductility of a material. Material deformation can be simulated using thermomechanical simulations to learn how adjusting variables like temperature, strain rate, and extrusion ratio affects the formation of the substructure. With this, one can learn a great deal about the underlying mechanisms that control the strengthening mechanisms in HSA6 alloys by investigating the connection between processing conditions, resultant microstructure, and mechanical properties.
