Abstract
The AZ31 magnesium alloys were subjected to indirect and direct extrusion processes, respectively, and the properties of the extruded alloys were compared. It was shown that the indirect-extruded alloy has a lower yield asymmetry between tension and compression than the direct-extruded alloy, which is due to a weaker fiber texture in the former.
