abstract={Evolution of the microstructure and mechanical properties of the hypereutectic Al-16.5mass%Si-3.77mass%Cu alloy by treatment in the liquid state by magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and hydrodynamic (HD) methods, followed by processing in the solid state by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) method and thermal treatment has been investigated. This alloy has in initial state a very low value of plasticity at room temperature. Optical microscopy technique was employed in order to determine the evolution of the microstructure after different operating conditions of ECAP and thermal treatments. It was demonstrated that it is possible to significantly improve mechanical properties of this alloy by means of combining a low number of ECAP passes after an adequate combination of MHD+HD processing and thermal treatments.},
