“…Presently, there are at least three aspects existing controversy in HPT field: Firstly, HPT processing consists of two stages (compression stage and torsion stage under high pressure stages, as shown in Figure 1). Most of the reports published focused on the last stage [32,[36][37][38], but there are few researchers directly on the role of compressive processing stage [39,40]; second, because the developed strain at the center of the disk is theoretically zero and linearly increases with the distance from the center according to the characteristics of torsional strain, it is reasonable to anticipate that the microstructures produced by the HPT process will be extremely inhomogeneous. However, recently, papers demonstrated that the microstructure is reasonably homogeneous across the disks when the torsional straining continues; at last, although a lot of studies have been done on HPT [32,[36][37][38][39][40], most of them are for microstructure and its Ultrafine-Grained Materials Fabrication with High Pressure Torsion and Simulation of Plastic... http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.68360 characterization or for processing.…”
