摘要

To improve the formability of magnesium alloy sheets, this study established a quantitative relationship between the stress triaxiality in the deformation zone and process parameters, combining a self-developed multiaxial loading device with finite element simulation. The results indicate that at a loading angle θ = − 45° (stress triaxiality η = − 0.533), the AZ31 magnesium alloy exhibits the most significant grain refinement and the lowest basal texture intensity. Based on a comprehensive analysis of both microhardness and the developed microstructure gradient, the optimal process parameters corresponding to η = − 0.533 were determined as a compressive ratio of 20% and an asynchronous ratio of 1.2. This parameter combination not only significantly increases the microhardness, but also forms a unique and stable gradient microstructure from the surface to the center. This study demonstrates a novel model-driven strategy, integrating a custom device with coupled experiment-simulation, for the precise optimization of magnesium alloy rolling processes.
