Effect of Alternating Bending on Texture, Structure, and Elastic Properties of Sheets of Magnesium Lithium Alloy

Figure 3

Microstructures of MgLi5 alloy after alternating bending using different numbers of cycles: (a, b) 0.5, (c, d) 1.0, (e, f) 3.0, and (f, h) 5 cycles; (b, c, e, g) correspond to the stretched side of the sheet; (a, d, f, h) correspond to the compressed side.
