Analysis on the Manufacturing of an AA5083 Straight Blade Previously ECAE Processed

Figure 4

Microhardness values obtained at the defined zones of the AA-5083 straight blade for the isothermal forging tests carried out at different temperature values (where “rt” means room temperature, “N0” means the use of nonsubmicrometric grain size AA-5083 as starting material, and “N2” means the use of AA-5083 submicrometric structure obtained by ECAE twice as starting material).
