Deformation behavior of as-rolled and strip-cast AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets

► The final texture during uniaxial tests and bi-axial tests of as-rolled specimen was developed by the {101¯2} extension twins and the {101¯1}−{101¯2} double twins, respectively. ► The strip-cast sheet exhibited a significant enhancement of formability under biaxial loading tests at 200 °C due to dynamic recrystallization effect.
