Anomaly of the Work Hardening of Zn-Cu Single Crystals Oriented for Slip in Secondary SystemsThe copper alloyed (up to 1.5%) zinc single crystals oriented for slip in non-basal systems (orientation close to < 1120 >) were subjected to compression test within a range of temperatures of 77-293K. It has been stated, that Zn-Cu crystals exhibit characteristic anomalies of the thermal dependence of yield stress and of the strain hardening exponent. Both of them are related to the change in type and sequence of active non-basal slip systems: pyramidal of the 1storder {1011} < 1123 > (Py-1) and pyramidal of the 2ndorder {1122} < 1123 > (Py-2). The temperature anomaly of the yield stress results from the change of the slip from Py-2 systems to simultaneous slip in the Py-2 and Py-1 (Py-2 + Py-1) systems, occurring in the preyielding stage. On the other hand, sequential activation of pyramidal systems taking place in advanced plastic stage (i.e. the first Py-2 and next Py-2 + Py-1 systems) is responsible for temperature anomaly of strain hardening exponent. Increase in copper addition favors the activity of Py-2 systems at the expense of Py-1 slip, what leads to a drastic differences in plastic behavior of zinc single crystals.

The mechanical properties of pure iron single crystals and of polycrystalline specimens of a zone-refined iron have been measured in compression over the temperature and strain rate ranges 2.2 to 293 °K and 7 x 10 -7 to 7 x 10 -3 s -1 respectively. Various yield stress parameters were determined as functions of both temperature and strain rate, and the reversible changes in flow stress produced by isothermal changes of strain rate or by changes of temperature at constant strain rate were also measured as functions of temperature, strain and strain rate. Both the temperature variation of the flow stress and the strain rate sensitivity of the flow stress were generally identical for the single crystals ( ca. 0.005/M carbon) and the polycrystalline specimens ( ca. 9/M carbon). At low temperatures, the temperature dependence of the yield stress was smaller than that of the flow stress at high strains, probably because of the effects of mechanical twinning, but once again the behaviour of single and polycrystalline specimens was very similar. Below 10 °K, both the flow stress and the extrapolated yield stress were independent of temperature. The results show that macroscopic yielding and flow at low temperatures are both governed by the same deformation mechanism, which is not very impurity sensitive, even in the very low carbon range covered by the experiments. The flow stress near 0 °K is ca. 5.8 x 10 -3 u where [i is the shear modulus. On the basis of a model for thermally activated flow, the activation volume at low temperatures (high stresses) is found to be ca. 5 b 3 . The exponent in the empirical power law for the dislocation velocity against stress relation is ca. 3 near room temperature, but becomes quite large at low temperatures. The results indicate that macroscopic deformation at low temperatures is governed by some kind of lattice frictional stress (Peierls-Nabarro force) acting on dislocations.

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.
