In order to investigate the influence mechanism of crystal orientation on the equal channel angular pressing(ECAP) deformation of aluminum single crystals, the texture evolution, dislocation motion and strain hardening behavior of Brass, Copper and S-oriented aluminum single crystals during the pressing process were systematically examined, combining ECAP experiments, crystal plasticity finite element simulations and molecular dynamics simulations. The results show that during ECAP process, aluminum single crystals samples with three orientations experience lattice rotation around the transverse direction(TD) axis and exhibit a tendency to evolve towards an ideal shear texture through dislocation slip mechanisms dominated by Shockley partial dislocations. Additionally, the part of metastable Copper texture further evolves into a more stable Brass orientation. Compared to the Brass and S orientations, the Copper-oriented aluminum single crystal, due to its lower Schmid factor, exhibits a significant delay in the initiation of dislocation slip. For Brass-oriented aluminum single crystals, the entanglement of high-density Shockley dislocations leads to the formation of local forest dislocations, effectively hindering further dislocation slip, resulting in a significant increase in dislocation density and strong strain hardening behavior.
