Strain Hardening Rate

Uniaxial compressive experiments of ultrafine-grained (UFG) copper fabricated by equal channel angular pressing method were performed at temperatures ranging from 77 K to 573 K under quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions. Based on the experimental results, the influence of temperature on flow stress, strain hardening rate and strain rate sensitivity (SRS) were investigated carefully. The results show that the flow stress of UFG copper displays much larger sensitivity to testing temperature than that of coarse grained copper. Meanwhile, both the strain hardening rate and its sensitivity to temperature of UFG copper are lower than those of its coarse counterpart. The SRS of UFG copper also shows apparent dependence on temperature. Although the estimated activation volume of UFG- Cu is on the order of ~10 b3, which is on the same order with that of grain boundary diffusion processes, these processes should be ruled out as dominant mechanisms for UFG- Cu at our experimental temperature and strain rate range. Instead, it is suggested that the dislocation-grain boundary interactions process might be the dominant thermally activated mechanism for UFG- Cu .

Indentation Strain

The mechanical properties of ultrafine-grained metals processed by equal channel angular pressing is investigated by nanoindentations in comparison with measurements on nanocrystalline nickel with a grain size between 20 and 400 nm produced by pulsed electrodeposition. Besides hardness and Young’s modulus measurements, the nanoindentation method allows also controlled experiments on the strain rate sensitivity, which are discussed in detail in this paper. Nanoindentation measurements can be performed at indentation strain rates between 10-3 s-1 and 0.1 s-1. Nanocrystalline and ultrafine-grained fcc metals as Al and Ni show a significant strain rate sensitivity at room temperature in comparison with conventional grain sized materials. In ultrafine-grained bcc Fe the strain rate sensitivity does not change significantly after severe plastic deformation. Inelastic effects are found during repeated unloading-loading experiments in nanoindentations.

Cp Ti

Ultrafine-grained (UFG) commercially pure (CP) Ti with a grain size of about 200 nm was produced by ECAP up to 8 passes using route BC at room temperature. For ECAP processing a proper die set was designed and constructed with an internal channel angle Φ of 120° and an outer arc of curvature Ψ of 20°. Strain rate sensitivity of UFG CP-Ti and CG CP-Ti were investigated by compression tests in the temperature range of 298~673K and strain rate range of 10-4~100s-1 using Gleeble simulator machine. Evolution of the microstructure during compression testing was observed using optical microscopy (OM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Strain rate sensitivity value m of the UFG CP-Ti has been measured and is found to increase with increasing temperature and decreasing strain rate, and is enhanced compared to that of CG CP-Ti. Result of the deformation activation energy determination of UFG CP-Ti indicates that the deformation mechanism in UFG CP-Ti is correlated to the grain boundaries.

The Relationship

Finite element analysis is used to simulate indentation creep experiments with a cone-shaped indenter. The purpose of the work is to help identify the relationship between the strain-rate sensitivity of the hardness, νH, and that of the flow stress, νσ in materials for which elastic deformations are significant. In general, νH differs from νσ, but the ratio νH/νσ is found to be a unique function of H/E* where H is the hardness and E* is the modulus relevant to Hertzian contact. νH/νσ approaches 1 for small H/E*, 0 for large H/E*, and is insensitive to work hardening. The trend in νH/νσ as a function of H/E* can be explained based on a generalized analysis of Tabor’s relation in which hardness is proportional to the flow stress H = k × σeff and in which the proportionality factor k is a function of σeff/E*.

Temperature Heat

The flow stress of many materials is a function of the applied strain rate at elevated temperature. The magnitude of this effect is captured by the strain rate sensitivity parameter “m”. The strain rate sensitivity of two face–center cubic solid solution alloys that are proposed for use in high temperature heat exchanger or steam generator applications, Alloys 800H and 617, has been determined as a function of temperature over that range of temperatures relevant for these applications. In addition to determining the strain rate sensitivity, it is important for nuclear design within Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code to determine temperature below which the flow stress is not affected by the strain rate. This temperature has been determined for both Alloy 800H and Alloy 617. At high temperature the strain rate sensitivity of the two alloys is significant and they have similar m values. For Alloy 617 the temperature limit below which little or no strain rate sensitivity is observed is approximately 700°C. For Alloy 800H this temperature is approximately 650°C.

Controlling Mechanism

AbstractThe strain rate sensitivity ß of the flow stress τ is associated with workhardening and β=(δτ/δln ε) is proportional to the workhardening increment τh = τ - τy, where τy is the strain rate independent yield stress. The temperature dependence of β/τh reflects changes in the rate controlling mechanism. At intermediate and high temperatures, the hardening correlates with the density of [101] dislocations on (010). The nature of the local obstacles at room temperature is not established.

Microstructure and Plasticity of Hot Deformed 5083 Aluminum Alloy Produced by Rapid Solidification and Hot Extrusion / Badania Mikrostruktury I Plastyczności Odkształcanego Na Gorąco Szybko-Krystalizowanego I Wyciskanego Stopu Aluminium 5083

The objective of the present study is to analyze the mechanical properties and thermal stability for rapidly solidified and extruded 5083 aluminum alloy (RS). Compression tests were performed in order to estimate flow stress and strain rate sensitivity relation for 5083 alloy in the temperature range of 20°C to 450°C. For the comparison purposes, conventionally cast and extruded industrial material (IM) was studied as well. Deformation tests performed at room temperature conditions show that rapidly solidified material exhibits about 40% higher yield stress (YS=320 MPa) than conventionally cast material (YS=180 MPa), while the deformation at 450°C results in significant decrease of flow stress parameters for RS material (YS=20 MPa) in comparison to IM material (YS=40 MPa). Strain rate sensitivity parameter determined for high temperature conditions indicates superplasticity behavior of RS material. Structural observations show that under conditions of high-temperature deformation there are no operating recrystallization mechanisms. In general, grain size below 1µm and size of reinforcing phases below 50 nm is preserved within the used deformation temperature range.
