Development of corrosion resistant coatings for Mg alloys and a general corrosion fatigue model
(University of Waterloo, 2020-09-30)Mg alloys find widespread applications in transportation industries especially in cars and trucks because of their edges in light-weight design, which can greatly help improve the fuel efficiency and decrease the greenhouse ... -
Effect of Heat Treatment and Silver Deposition on the Corrosion Behaviour of Magnesium Alloys for Bone Implant Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2013-01-23)Pure magnesium (Mg) and its alloys with calcium (Ca) and both Ca and zinc (Zn) have potential as bioresorbable bone implant materials provided the corrosion rate can be controlled. Thus, corrosion behaviour was investigated ... -
Forging Preform Design Optimization for Structural Magnesium Components
(University of Waterloo, 2023-11-30)An increasing emphasis on emissions reduction and improved fuel economy is leading to a broader utilization of magnesium (Mg) alloys in vehicle light-weighting applications. Mg alloys are the lightest structural metals and ...
