Numerical simulation of rolling process and microstructure evolution of AM50 Mg alloy during hot rolling process

Abstract

In order to optimize rolling process of AM50 Mg alloy, numerical simulation method is adopted to find reasonable process parameters. And then, the metallograph was viewed to find the microstructure evolution during hot rolling process. Through numerical simulation it is found that while the heating temperature is 420 and the train less than 0.33 each time. Through 10 times rolling, a 10mm thickness plate was rolled to 0.5mm, and its grain size also decreases to 10μm, which indicates that AM50 Mg alloy can be formed by hot rolling method.
