Strength–ductility synergy in Mg-Gd-Y-Zr alloys via texture engineering in bi-directional forging by Jingli Li, Quanfeng Han, Xiuzhu Han, Xin Yi

“…It is revealed that the double-peak basal texture, with basal poles located at the center of two mutually perpendicular forging directions, serves as an essential factor for the strength–ductility synergy of the Mg-11Gd-3Y-0.5Zr alloy processed with BDF. Roles of the double-peak basal texture in overcoming the strength–ductility trade-off include promoting non-basal slip, increasing ductility, and enlarging the Hall–Petch effect along the sample elongation direction while reducing the extent of anisotropy in critical resolved shear stresses of different slip systems. …”
