Fig. 10 Schematics of the major differences in the deformation and damage features and microstructures on the lateral surfaces near fractures after AZ31 Mg alloy was loaded to tensile rupture at low (10-4 s-1) and high (10-2 s-1) strain rates at different temperatures: a 373 K, 10-4 s-1; b 373 K, 10-2 s-1; c 423 K, 10-4 s-1;d 423 K, 10-2 s-1; e 473 K, 10-4 s-1; f 473 K, 10-2 s-1
