This book discusses in detail grain refinement through various severe plastic deformation processes such as equal channel angular pressing, high-pressure torsion and twist extrusion. It also deals with the grain refinement mechanism, the influence of process parameters on properties of fabricated micro/nano material and thermal stability, as well as commercialised nanostructured metals and alloys produced by severe plastic deformation techniques and associated challenges.Key features: Includes individual severe plastic deformation processes and their engineering features in detail. Discusses commercialised nanostructured metals and alloys produced by severe plastic deformation and challenges. Deals with the grain refinement mechanism and the influence of process parameters on the properties of fabricated micro/nano material. Explores pertinent functional properties. Gives a comprehensive view of the successful application of severe plastic deformation. This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in materials science, mechanics and manufacturing engineering.
