Low Amplitude Nonlinear Damping and Effective Modulus in Magnesium Alloys Containing Long-Period Stacking Ordered Structures

Despite its title referencing "microplasticity" (a materials science term for microscale deformation in metals), this paper studies the mechanical damping properties of magnesium alloys — not microplastic pollution. It examines elastic modulus and vibration damping in metal alloys at low temperatures, and is entirely unrelated to microplastics or environmental health.
