Equal channel angular sheet extrusion (ECASE) as a precursor of heterogeneity in an AA6063-T6 alloy

We study the deformation inducing heterogeneity in an aluminum alloy 6063-T6 in the form of a sheet processed at room temperature by equal channel angular sheet extrusion (ECASE) up to a maximum equivalent strain of 1.86 following route C. The through thickness strain distribution showed higher stra...
