Abstract

Two nano-scaled hexagonal distortions in high temperature BCC phase during cooling is commonly observed in many alloys systems. Although efforts have been made on studying the lattice softening of the BCC structure during cooling, the distortion mechanisms are less addressed. Thus, the formation of two hexagonal structures in the β precipitates in a Cu-40Zn alloy treated by ECP was thoroughly investigated. Results show that the β precipitates contain two kinds of nano-sized and diffuse atomic clusters one with a η structure obeying the Burgers OR and the other a ω structure obeying the Blackburn OR. They were each formed through a two-stepped atomic displacement. For the η structure, the first step is the atomic shuffle of each second 110β plane in the β direction and the second is a structure change mainly by a {1 1¯ 2} β shear. For the ω structure, the first is an atomic shuffle on each second and third {112¯}β plane in the ± [111]β directions and then normal strains in three mutually perpendicular directions. The concomitant formation of the two structures minimizes the lattice distortion of single formation. The present results provide new information on the formation mechanism of the two hexagonal structures in a BCC matrix.

Abstract

In this study, the effect of rotary-die equal-channel angular pressing (RD-ECAP) on the microstructure and texture evolution of GW103 alloy is studied. RD-ECAP processes were carried out for 1, 4 and 12 passes at 450 °C. The mechanical properties and friction behavior of RD-ECAP-processed Mg-10Gd-3Y (wt%) alloy (GW103) are discussed. The results reveal that the size of dynamic recrystallized grains and second-phase particles are significantly refined to about 1.3 μm and 1 μm, respectively. The texture evolution of the processed samples is studied by X-ray diffraction and electron backscattered diffraction techniques. The multiple texture components formed are not observed after the conventional ECAP process. Moreover, different dynamic recrystallization (DRX) mechanisms are systemically analyzed and discussed in view of the texture evolution of ECAP processed samples. The final textures obtained after 12 passes are identified as two types: The C-texture type induced by continuous and discontinuous DRX, and the random texture components induced by reorientation of the initial 1¯0> fiber. Based on the grain refinement, precipitate strengthening and texture weakening mechanisms, a high-performance ternary alloy of Mg-Gd-Y was firstly obtained through 12 passes RD-ECAP processing, with a combination of high yield strength of 312 MPa and a high ductility of 22%. In addition, the friction behaviors are also studied. The multi-pass-processed samples exhibit a relatively lower friction coefficient under a load of 10 N at room temperature.

Abstract

We report a comprehensive data set characterizing and quantifying the geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density in the crystallographic frame (ραc) and disclination density (ρθ) in fine-grained polycrystalline olivine deformed in uniaxial compression or torsion, at 1000 and 1200 ∘C, under a confining pressure of 300 MPa. Finite strains range from 0.11 up to 8.6 %, and stresses reach up to 1073 MPa. The data set is a selection of 19 electron backscatter diffraction maps acquired with conventional angular resolution (0.5∘) but at high spatial resolution (step size ranging between 0.05 and 0.1 µm). Thanks to analytical improvement for data acquisition and treatment, notably with the use of ATEX (Analysis Tools for Electron and X-ray diffraction) software, we report the spatial distribution of both GND and disclination densities. Areas with the highest GND densities define sub-grain boundaries. The type of GND densities involved also indicates that most olivine sub-grain boundaries have a mixed character. Moreover, the strategy for visualization also permits identifying minor GND that is not well organized as sub-grain boundaries yet. A low-temperature and high-stress sample displays a higher but less organized GND density than in a sample deformed at high temperature for a similar finite strain, grain size, and identical strain rate, confirming the action of dislocation creep in these samples, even for micrometric grains (2 µm). Furthermore, disclination dipoles along grain boundaries are identified in every undeformed and deformed electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) map, mostly at the junction of a grain boundary with a sub-grain but also along sub-grain boundaries and at sub-grain boundary tips. Nevertheless, for the range of experimental parameters investigated, there is no notable correlation of the disclination density with stress, strain, or temperature. However, a broad positive correlation between average disclination density and average GND density per grain is found, confirming their similar role as defects producing intragranular misorientation. Furthermore, a broad negative correlation between the disclination density and the grain size or perimeter is found, providing a first rule of thumb on the distribution of disclinations. Field dislocation and disclination mechanics (FDDM) of the elastic fields due to experimentally measured dislocations and disclinations (e.g., strains/rotations and stresses) provides further evidence of the interplay between both types of defects. At last, our results also support that disclinations act as a plastic deformation mechanism, by allowing rotation of a very small crystal volume.

Abstract

International audience; The dislocation densities were measured on the same samples using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (electron channeling contrast imaging (ECCI) and high-angular-resolution-electron backscattered diffraction (HR-EBSD)), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Notably, these different methods do not observe the same types of dislocations, i.e., statistically stored dislocations (SSDs) and/or geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs). ECCI and TEM imaging are direct-measurement techniques, whereas HR-EBSD and XRD are indirect methods. Therefore, a quantitative comparison of the measurements obtained using these four techniques on undeformed and deformed duplex steels is proposed. For low deformation, where the dislocation density is quite small (1 − 5 × 10$^{13}$ m$^{−2}$), imaging methods are rather performant, whereas XRD measurements suffer from high uncertainty levels. HR-EBSD measurements show results that are in good agreement with the other methods for these deformation levels. For higher deformation levels (with dislocation densities above 1 − 3 × 10$^{14}$ m$^{−2}$), imaging methods are no longer relevant because of the increasing uncertainty arising from local contrast variation and overlapping of dislocations. The different results obtained highlight the necessity of taking a step back on each method used. Correctly defining what is to be measured (SSDs or GNDs), in which condition (solid material or thin plate) as well as the parameters (pixel size, area, etc.) and their bias is essential, especially if the objective is to use the measurement in a micromechanical model.

Abstract

As demonstrated by the loading–unloading tests and the modeling of the grain size effect and the composite effect, mainly owing to the back stress induced by CNTs, carbon nanotube/aluminum (CNT/Al) composites exhibit higher strain hardening capability than the unreinforced ultrafine-grained Al matrix. The back stress induced by CNTs should arise from the interfacial image force and the long-range interaction between statically stored dislocations and geometrically necessary dislocations around the CNT/Al interface. Therefore, this CNT-induced interfacial back stress strengthening mechanism is supposed to provide a novel route to enhancing the strain hardening capability and ductility in CNT/Al composites. IMPACT STATEMENT The present work investigates the roles and origins of back stress in the strain hardening of the carbon nanotubes/aluminum composites for the first time.
