Sumario:This research presents a comparative analysis of stored energy evolution in grains with A_1* {111} <¬1¬12>, A_2* {111} <1¬21>, A {111} <1¬10>, ¬A {111} <0¬11> , B {112} <1¬10>, ¬B {112} <1¬10>, and C {100} <110> shear orientations for AA6060 and AA6082 alloys after equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) processing up to eight passes at room (RT) and warm (250 °C) temperatures, respectively. At the earlier stage of deformation, the stored energy values for the AA6060 alloy were relatively high in all shear-oriented grains and then varied heterogeneously with increase in number of ECAP passes. Consequently, the tensile strength and ductility were improved simultaneously. For the AA6082 alloy, the stored energy in all shear-oriented grains was low and gradually increased with the number of ECAP passes. As a result, the AA6082 alloy showed a decrease in tensile strength. The ECAP-processed AA6060 alloy at RT exhibited higher dislocation density and lower grain size, indicating a continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) mechanism. However, the ECAP-processed AA6082 alloy at a warm temperature showed lower dislocation density and a larger grain size, which corresponds to a discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) mechanism.
