Bulk nanostructured metals (or ultrafine grained (UFG) metallic materials), of which mean grain size of the matrix is smaller than 1 um, usually perform surprisingly high strength, high fatigue strength and good low-temperature toughness, but their tensile ductility, especially uniform elongation, is limited in many cases. This is attributed to the early plastic instability caused by high flow stress and limited strain-hardening capability of the UFG materials [1]. Therefore, an important strategy for managing both strength and ductility in nanostructured metals is to increase the strain-hardening capability by controlling microstructures, such as, dispersing nano-particles in the UFG matrix, making the nanostructure multi-phased, etc. [2]. Nanostructures fabricated by severe plastic deformation (SPD) naturally have characteristics of deformation structures. This is one of the main microstructural reasons of limited ductility, as strain-hardened metals usually do not show large tensile elongation. In order to remove the deformed characteristics, annealing processes are usually applied. But in many cases of the SPD processed materials, the mean grain size becomes over 1 um after fully annealed microstructures are obtained, so that the strength decreases very much. Recently, on the other hand, we have succeeded in obtaining fully-annealed nanostructures in some alloys [3-7]. The materials show both high strength and enough strain-hardening ability to result in large uniform elongation. All these ways to manage strength and ductility will be presented in the seminar.
