ABSTRACTIn both single and polycrystalline Ni3Al, no strain rate dependence of 0.2% flow stress is observed in a temperature range where anomalous positive temperature dependence of strength is exhibited. A distinct strain rate dependence is observed, however, in single crystals when the test temperature is raised beyond the peak in flow stress. It is shown that (111) type slip involving diffusional process is responsible for the strain rate sensitivity at near [001] orientation, while (001) type slip which is governed by the Peierls mechanism at orientations away from [001]. In polycrystalline compound with a fine grain size an apparent loss of the positive temperature dependence of strength is observed at a slower strain rate due to grain boundary sliding.

We investigated the effect of strain rate on the plastic-flow stress of a Zr-based bulk-metallic glass in quasistatic compression. The results indicate that the plastic-flow stress is dependent on the strain rate: an increase in the strain rate leads to a decrease in the plastic-flow stress, and vice versa. However, simply loading, unloading, and reloading at a constant strain rate do not change the plastic-flow stress. This strain-rate dependence of the plastic-flow stress may be related to shear-banding operations.

The structure–property relationships of a vintage ASTM A7 steel is quantified in terms of stress state, temperature, and strain rate dependence. The microstructural stereology revealed primary phases to be 15.8% ± 2.6% pearlitic and 84.2% ± 2.6 ferritic with grain sizes of 13.3 μm ± 3.1 μm and 36.5 μm ± 7.0 μm, respectively. Manganese particle volume fractions represented 0.38–1.53% of the bulk material. Mechanical testing revealed a stress state dependence that showed a maximum strength increase of 85% from torsion to tension and a strain rate dependence that showed a maximum strength increase of 38% from 10−1 to 103 s−1at 20% strain. In tension, a negative strain rate sensitivity (nSRS) was observed in the quasi-static rate regime yet was positive when traversing from the quasi-static rates to high strain rates. Also, the A7 steel exhibited a significant ductility reduction as the temperature increased from ambient to 573 K (300 °C), which is uncommon for metals. The literature argues that dynamic strain aging (DSA) can induce the negative strain rate sensitivity and ductility reduction upon a temperature increase. Finally, a tension/compression stress asymmetry arises in this A7 steel, which can play a significant role since bending is prevalent in this ubiquitous structural material. Torsional softening was also observed for this A7 steel.

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.

ABSTRACTThe compressive ductilities of Ni3Al-Zr-B base alloys with sole addition of magnesium (0.02∼0.06wt.%) and combined addition of magnesium(0.02wt.%) and silicon(0.54∼1.08wt.%) respectively responding to strain rate rising from 10-4sec-1 to 10-1 sec-1 have been studied in a high temperature range of 1073∼1273K. The results show that the compressive strains at rupture(CSR) of the alloys have been greatly improved by sole addition of magnesium and the alloys with combined addition of magnesium and silicon reveal even higher CSR values, furthermore, at temperatures of 1073K and 1273K, the strain rate dependence of CSR reveals to be anomalous, i.e, the CSR value increases as the strain rate rises, and then declines until it surpasses the peak value, which is corresponded to the strain rate of 10-3 sec-1 and 10-3 sec-1 respectively.The beneficial effect of magnesium and silicon exists in their competence of reducing strain rate sensitivity exponent values. The mechanisms of the anomalous ductilizing behavior in the Ni3Al as affected by ternary elements are discussed.

ABSTRACTMechanical properties of E21 (Mn, Fe)3AlC-base alloys were investigated. The E21 crystal structure is closely related to L12, and thereby E21 compounds are expected to exhibit superior properties similar to those of the L12 Ni3AL. Nominal compositions are fixed to be 60mol%(Mn, Fe)-20mol%A1–20mol%C. Alloys were prepared by mechanical alloying and hot pressing. ICP chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis were carried out for alloy characterization. Mechanical properties were evaluated by Vickers hardness tests at room temperature (RT) and compression tests from RT to 1273K. Strain rate dip tests were also carried out. It is found that most alloys are composed of two phases of E21 as the primary phase and graphite as the precipitates, and that the volume fraction of graphite increases with increasing Fe content. Hardness and 0.2% flow stress at RT are raised with increasing Fe content. At RT, 0.2% flow stress and fracture strength of Fe3A1C alloy used are 2.9GPa and 3.4GPa, respectively. An alloy containing 40%Mn-20%Fe shows weak positive temperature dependence of strength at 700–800K, similar to the observation in some Co3AIC alloys. Moreover, work-hardening coefficient of all alloys shows strong positive temperature dependence below 700K. These results suggest the occurrence of K-W related mechanism for plastic deformation in these alloys.
