Textures in nanostructured metals processed by severe plastic deformation

This work demonstrates and analyzes the experimental results of the crystallographic texture formation processes in pure metals with a different type of crystal lattice, which were subjected to severe plastic deformation (SPD) applying various techniques such as high pressure torsion (HPT) and equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP). This article is based on a presentation made in “ICOTOM-13: Textures of Materials” held at Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea, August 26–30, 2002, organized by The Korean Institute of Metals and Materials BK21 Division of Materials Education and Research (Seoul National University) and Texture Control Laboratory (Seoul National University).
