In UFG, slightly elongated grains with an average width of 300 nm were observed, indicating that the microstructure was in the process of evolving equiaxed grains.
Here, a high population of dislocations should still remain in the grain boundary areas as well as in the grain interior.
The mechanical properties before ECAP were 193 MPa tensile strength, 54 % elongation, and a Vickers hardness number of 64.
In addition to this, the whole surface observations of these specimens indicated that the damaged regions were formed at an early stage of cycling, and that the number and area of these regions slowly increased with further cycling up to a specific number of cycles, depending on the material and stress amplitude.
Once this specific number of cycles had been exceeded, both the number and area of the damaged regions showed a significant rise.

After 9 pass of MAF, grain size reduced to 2 µm.
Wear mass loss of MAF processed sample reduced, with increased number of MAF passes.
Average grain size of as-received sample was found to be 600 µm, with equiaxed grains, as shown in Fig 2 (a).
After MAF 3 pass, coarse grains are converted into finer grains and shear bands are formed in the place of elongated grains.
As the number of MAF passes increases, shear bandwidth decreases and dislocation density increases, this is the reason for the strength to increase and is called as grain boundary strengthening mechanism.

On the other hand, because the seepage in the slope body caused by rainfall carried the fine clay grains to the slope direction and the larger silt grains was left, then the laterite grains characteristic showed that the silt grains content increased and the clay grains content reduced with the slope altitude to increase.

These factors weakened the effect of the connection structure between the laterite grains and caused the connection force between the laterite grains to reduce, which would lead to the cementatory ability of the laterite grains to reduce.
In other words, the cementatory ability between the laterite grains was closely related to the density and the grain composition.
Then the raise of the contact point between the laterite grains made the embedding capacity between the laterite grains became stronger and the relative sliding between the laterite grains became very difficult.

This non-uniformity decreases when the number of turns is increased.
With higher number of passes, the grains become more equiaxed.
Figure 6 presents the grain size distribution of ECAE Ta subjected to different number of passes and different routes; note, an increased number of passes leads to decreased average grain size.
Therefore, the effective grain size with a higher number of ECAE passes should be even smaller.
Factors of SPD temperature, routes, number of turns in HPT or number of passes in ECAE, should be considered.

The size of grains and the crystal phase of copper oxide were controlled by the number of ALD deposition cycles.
As the number of ALD cycles increases to 750, the small grains become larger and merge with each other, as observed previously in the ALD growth of TiO2 on mesoporous Si [35] and TiN on SiO2 [36], or ZnO on InGaAs substrates [37].
The size of the copper oxide grains increases with the number of ALD cycles while, at the same time, the stoichiometry changes from predominantly CuO for small numbers of cycles to Cu2O for larger numbers.
In addition, for the small number of ALD cycles, the nanosized copper oxide crystallites are dispersed over the TiO2 surface (with the preferential nucleation sites at the TiO2 grain- boundaries), while larger grains of copper oxide cover most of the TiO2 surface for the larger number of cycles.
However, when copper oxide grains cover the most of TiO2 surface (750-cycle sample), the photocatalytic activity is greatly reduced, reflecting the reduction of the number of active TiO2 sites on covered surfaces.
