Mainly, the plastic behaviour of the material is explained with the fundamentals of the elasticity and plasticity of the material. Material simulations are carried out using ANSYS software to obtain results for the cyclic loading behaviour of the AZ31 material using Finite Element method. In this simulation has considered bilinear isotropic, bilinear kinematic hardening curves in material properties and linear, quadratic element type with mesh size as 0.4mm and 0.6mm. These simulations can help to understand how AZ31 acts when long displacements act on small size specimens, and immediate repetitive loads act on AZ31 specimen. These results can be used in automobile or aerospace industry to have more developments in future. Key words: Engineering alloys, mechanical properties, AZ31 mechanical properties, bilinear isotropic hardening, bilinear kinematic hardening, linear element and quadratic element type.

INTRODUCTION The AZ31 is a lightweight magnesium alloy with multiple compositions and variants. Its property from brittle to ductile can be improved at high temperatures using dynamic recrystallization. The most seen application with the AZ31 alloy is extrusion which involves forging and wire drawing. The extrudability of these materials is almost equivalent to that of Aluminium with billet temperatures like Aluminium composites. As AZ31 alloy has aluminium and magnesium proportions, stress and strain vary or depend upon the process that is used to make a specimen. Magnesium and magnesium combination items are usually used in an airship, aviation, and atomic power enterprises. AZ31 being a basic magnesium alloy is used in the automobile and aerospace industry due to its lightweight and ductility. Magnesium alloy has gained its importance in the commercial and automotive industry too because of its
