This book presents the most recent results in the area of bulk nanostructured materials and new trends in their severe plastic deformation (SPD) processing, where these techniques are now emerging from the domain of laboratory-scale research into the commercial production of various bulk nanomaterials. Special emphasis is placed on an analysis of the effect of nanostructures in materials fabricated by SPD on mechanical properties (strength and ductility, fatigue strength and life, superplasticity) and functional behavior (shape memory effects, magnetic and electric properties), as well as the numerous examples of their innovative applications. There is a high innovation potential for industrial applications of bulk nanomaterials for structural use (materials with extreme strength) as well as for functional applications such as nanomagnets, materials for hydrogen storage, thermoelectric materials, superconductors, catalysts, and biomedical implants.

The need for low weight and high performance structural materials has revolutionized the technology and has led to the emergence of new processes and methodologies. Friction stir processing (FSP), based on the principle of friction stir welding, is an emerging solid state metal working process. This technique causes intense plastic deformation and high strain rates in the processed material, resulting in precise control of the microstructure through material mixing and densification. FSP process has been successfully used for achieving significant grain refinement and enhancement of surface properties. The present work focuses on the study of behavior of Aluminium cast alloy (Al-6063) processed by the friction stir processing technique. Samples of FSP-ed aluminium were examined and their microstructures, microhardness, Rockwell hardnesss and impact strength were studied and compared with base metal Al-6063. Hardness tester was employed to evaluate the interfacial bonding between the particles and matrix by indenting the hardness with the constant load and constant time. Impact test was employed to know the Impact Strength of samples against the Impact of Hammer.
The Light Metals series is widely recognized as the definitive source of information on new developments in aluminum production technology.

It also includes papers from a keynote presentation session discussing impurities in the aluminum supply chain are also included.
FSP is manufacturing the Technique used to modify the microstructure metals. In this process a rotating tool is penetrated in the work piece and moved in the transverse direction. Further FSP technique is used for fabrication of surface composite on aluminium substrate and homogenization of powder metallurgy aluminium alloy, metal matrix composites, and the cast aluminium alloys. By this process material properties can be improved due to enhancement of grain structure. With this technique the material have shown good corrosion resistance, high strength and high fatigue resistance.

Superplasticity is a state in which solid crystalline materials, such as some fine-grained metals, are deformed well beyond their usual breaking point. The phenomenon is of importance in processes such as superplastic forming which allows the manufacture of complex, high-quality components in such areas as aerospace and biomedical engineering. Superplasticity and grain boundaries in ultrafine-grained materials discusses a number of problems associated with grain boundaries in metallic polycrystalline materials. The role of grain boundaries in processes such as grain boundary diffusion, relaxation and grain growth is investigated. The authors explore the formation and evolution of the microstructure, texture and ensembles of grain boundaries in materials produced by severe plastic deformation. Written by two leading experts in the field, Superplasticity and grain boundaries in ultrafine-grained materials significantly advances our understanding of this important phenomenon and will be an important reference work for metallurgists and those involved in superplastic forming processes.
