    Novel SPD Method: Twisted Variable Channel Angular Extrusion
    (KOREAN INST METALS MATERIALS) KENTLİ, AYKUT; Ozbeyaz, Kerim; Kaya, Hasan; Kentli, Aykut
    Different types of SPD techniques are applicable and have been studied by various researchers. All of them have several advantages and disadvantages. Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) is one of the most popular SPD techniques and is still being developed. The aim of this paper is to improve the efficiency of ECAP process by putting forward a novel design (Twisted Variable Channel Angular Pressing (TV-CAP)) and also to achieve higher mechanical properties when compared to conventional ECAP processes. For this purpose, a new TV-CAP die was designed by combining three different methods: ECAP, Twist Extrusion, and Direct Extrusion. The new design was able to integrate the advantages of each method to the workpiece material. In this context, the design parameters of the TV-CAP die were first identified by finite element analysis (FEA) in Deform-3D. The TV-CAP die was produced according to the determined parameters and AA5083 alloy was pressed with this novel die. Hardness and tensile tests were carried out to compare mechanical properties. In addition, Optical Microscope, SEM, TEM images were taken, and XRD and EBSD analyses were carried out to examine the changes in grain structure. As a result of this experimental study, an increase of 197.3% was observed in the hardness value and an increase of 144.7% was achieved in the tensile strength value by using the novel TV-CAP die. These results also agreed with the effective strain values obtained from the FEA.

    INVESTIGATION OF STRAIN INHOMOGENEITy IN HExA-ECAP PROCESSED AA7075
    (POLSKA AKAD NAUK, POLISH ACAD SCIENCES, INST METALL & MATER SCI PAS, 2021) KENTLİ, AYKUT; Ogut, Serkan; Kaya, Hasan; Kentli, Aykut; Ozbeyaz, Kerim; Sahbaz, Mehmet; Ucar, Mehmet
    Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) techniques have been used by researchers for last three decades in order to obtain UltraFine Grained (UFG) materials. Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) is preferred more than other SPD techniques thanks to its high performance and practicability. Hexa Equal Channel Angular Pressing (Hexa-ECAP) - modified ECAP technique which enables to apply ECAP routes for cylindrical samples properly - was preferred in this study. Within the objective of this study, the effects of coefficient and ram velocity on the mean effective strain and strain inhomogeneity of Hexa-ECAP processed Al7075 aluminium alloy were investigated. Also, the effects of ram velocity and friction coefficient on hardness homogeneity were investigated benefitting from the similarity between the hardness distribution and the strain distribution.
