The results show that prevalent macroscopic shear banding occurs in ECAP as long as the pressing passes reach 2, and the severe macroscopic shear band extends from bottom to top surface and slants to the longitudinal axis of specimen at an angle of about 45°, develops at regular intervals, with a high shear strain accommodation of about 3.7 within the band.
