Ultrafine grain size is often achieved by severe plastic deformation. A few techniques have been devel- oped to achieve severe plastic deformation,such as equal channel angular (ECA ) processing, torsion, and accumulative roll bonding (ARB) techmpues. This paper will introduce a moftiaxis deformation technique which can achieve essentially unlimited strain with constant deformation volume. The mul- tiaxis deformation can be fully restrained or unrestrained.The bulk volume of a multiaxis restraint compression specimen can be easily machined into mechanical testing specimens for mechanical property measurement and other studies.
