Formability of Magnesium alloys is limited especially at room temperature due to their hexagonal close packed (HCP) structure. At room temperature (RT), the critical resolved shear stress for non basal slip systems is much greater than those for basal slips. As only basal systems may contribute to plastic deformation, magnesium alloys have limited formability at RT. However, increased formability...
