Boundary Sliding

Several kinds of Cu polycrystals with dispersed SiO2 particles of different volume fractions were tensile tested at high temperatures from 473 K to 1023 K. All of the alloys showed clear intermediate-temperature embrittlement (ITE). Although the temperature of minimum elongation was almost the same in all the alloys, temperature dependence of fracture strain depended strongly on the SiO2 volume fraction: (1) At a fixed temperature, the fracture strain tended to first decrease with increase in SiO2 volume fraction, showed minimum in an alloy with certain volume fraction, and increased again with increase in volume fraction. (2) With increase in SiO2 volume fraction, the temperature range of ITE became narrower and sharper. These results were reasonably understood by considering the occurrence of stress concentration at grain-boundary particles induced by grain-boundary sliding (GBS) and occurrence of dynamic recrystallization and stress relaxation by Cu/SiO2 interfacial diffusion.

Reversed Cyclic

ABSTRACTNew experiments reveal that the flexural strength of fresh water, columnar-grained ice loaded normal to the columns may be increased by about a factor of two upon reversed cyclic loading at a frequency of ~0.1 Hz at stress amplitudes of 1.3–2.6 MPa. The effect is explained in terms of a reduction in deformation-induced stress concentration through the activation of grain boundary sliding, which is evident through boundary decohesion.

Boundary Sliding

Silicon nitride is one of the ceramic materials being considered for the components in gas turbine engines which will be exposed to temperatures of 1000 to 1400°C. Test specimens from hot-pressed billets exhibit flexural strengths of approximately 50 MN/m2 at 1000°C. However, the strength degrades rapidly to less than 20 MN/m2 at 1400°C. The strength degradition is attributed to subcritical crack growth phenomena evidenced by a stress rate dependence of the flexural strength and the stress intensity factor. This phenomena is termed slow crack growth and is associated with the onset of plastic deformation at the crack tip. Lange attributed the subcritical crack growth tb a glassy silicate grain boundary phase which decreased in viscosity with increased temperature and permitted a form of grain boundary sliding to occur.
