AbstractStudies are discussed which show that the segmental mobility In polycarbonate (Lexan from General Electric Co.) increases when a static deformation in either extension or simple compression (uniaxial stress) is applied to a specimen, but thereafter the mobility decreases progressively. These changes can be termed erasure (partial) of physical aging (strain softening) and physical aging (hardening), respectively. Because the volume of a specimen deformed in simple compression decreases, reversal of aging (de-aging) cannot be attributed to an increase in free volume, as usually defined. A proposed explanation will be mentioned. A study was also made of the yield stress modified by unconventional methods at several temperatures. The results can be explained In terms of the rate of physical aging and its temperature dependence determined on specimens at 2.6% extension over a broad range of temperatures. These results show that yielding results from progressive de-aging. The yield phenomena obtained by special methods results from both physical aging and de-aging.

ABSTRACTThe ternary TiAl-Nb (Llo) alloys stabilized at 1000°C for a week were prepared into miniature specimens for compressive deformation tests. The specimens were deformed in uniaxial compression at room temperature as well as various high temperatures. The yield stress and fracture strain were determined with respect to Nb concentration, and as a function of temperature to investigate positive temperature dependence.Dislocation structures and other deformation structures of the deformed alloys were studied by TEM.

The effect of the activated slip systems on the temperature dependence of yield stress was investigated in α-Ti by using crystal plasticity finite element method. A model for finite element analysis (FEA) was constructed based on experimental results. The displacement in FEA was applied up to the nominal strain of 4% which is the same strain as the experimental one. Stress-strain curves were obtained, which corresponds to experimental data taken every 50 K between 73 K and 673 K. The used material constants which are temperature dependent were elastic constants, and lattice friction stresses. The lattice friction stresses of basal slip systems were set to be higher than that of pyramidal slip systems at 73 K. Then, the lattice friction stresses were set to be closer as the temperature increases. It was found that the activation of slip systems is strong temperature dependent, and that the yield stress depends on the number of active slip systems.

Insight Into

AbstractWood exhibits very different behavior and properties at different scales. One important scale is the cell wall (CW) that is commonly tested by nanoindentation. Common nanoindentation provides important insight into the material but has limitations because it does not apply uniaxial stress and provides data from single spots. Therefore, the aim was to examine beech CW using two state-of-the-art techniques: micropillar compression (MCo) and nanoindentation mapping (NIP). The mean strength of the beech CW was found to be about 276 MPa and the mean yield stress was 183 MPa. These values were higher than those in most cited literature, which was attributed to the fact that libriform fibers from beech late wood were measured. Mean E obtained from MCo was about 7.95 GPa, which was lower than the values obtained on a macrolevel and about 61% of the value obtained from NIP. NIP also showed that E of the CW around the middle lamella (ML) was about 64% of the value at the location attributed to the S2 layer. Lower E from MCo may be caused by sinking of the micropillar into the wood structure under the load. Failure of the micropillars showed gradual collapse into themselves, with debonding at the S3 layer or the MLs.

Rigidity Modulus

The dependence of the yield and flow stresses of vacuum-cast and extruded polycrystalline beryllium on the grain size, d, is studied over 20-400 °C. Both follow the standard d -1/2 relationship. The Taylor orientation factor in the deformation of the poly crystal is ca. 4.3. The marked temperature dependence of the yield stress between 20 and 200 °C arises primarily from the intragranular resistance to dislocation motion, in particular on prismatic planes. The variation of the flow stress with d1/2 increases progressively with strain and this is attributed to the effect of grain size on the dislocation density at a given strain; the increase is particularly marked for beryllium because of its high rigidity modulus.

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.
