Abstract

The relationship between the resulting grain size and the applied working strain rate and temperature for the friction stir processing in AZ31 Mg is systemically examined. The Zener-Holloman parameter is utilized in rationalizing the relationship. The grain orientation distribution is also studied using the X-ray diffraction.
