Ten Years of Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) in Iran, Part II:Accumulative Roll Bonding (ARB)

The present paper is the second part of a previously published overview entitled ten years of severe plastic deformation (SPD) in Iran . Part I concentrates on the equal channel angular pressing (ECAP). In this part, the focus is on the accumulative roll bonding (ARB) because, currently, Iran is ranked the first in the world by the total number of publications in this field. In the present section, the emphasis is not on the microstructure and ultrafine-grained materials produced by ARB. Instead, its focus is on several aspects of ARB to which small attention has been paid so far. The impact and contribution of Iran to each category is evaluated in comparison to researchers from other countries. The main interest of Iranian researchers in the field of ARB is to fabricate the composite materials, particularly metal matrix composites (MMCs). The Iranian researchers were the first who introduced ARB as an effective method to produce particulate MMCs.
