Equal-Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) and High-Pressure Torsion (HPT)
ECAP and HPT are used to fabricate ultrafine-grained microstructures with grain sizes <1000 nm.
Hardness measurements demonstrate the development of homogeneity after processing: illustrations (right) show an inhomogeneous microstructure after 1 turn of HPT (upper) and a more homogeneous microhardness after 5 turns (lower).
Materials processed by ECAP and HPT are under evaluation for use in superplastic forming operations.

Training 2 graduate students (Megumi Kawasaki and
Roberto Figueiredo) and 1 post-doc (Dr. Cheng Xu) are participating in this research.
Collaborations are in place with Kyushu University, Japan, and the University of Southampton, U.K.
Impact Invited lectures describing the results were
presented at international conferences in Canada, Germany, Japan, Poland, Russia, Spain, U.K., U.S.A.
The P.I. co-organized conferences on Ultrafine-Grained Materials in Spain (2003); Charlotte, N.C. (2004); Japan (2005); San Antonio, TX (2006); Ufa, Russia (2007).
The post-doc (Dr. Cheng Xu) and student (Megumi Kawasaki) won awards for best oral presentations at the TMS Annual Meetings in Charlotte, N.C. (2004) and San Antonio, TX (2006).
