ABSTRACTPolycrystals of stoichiometric Ni3Ai are brittle in air at room temperature, at least at strain rates from 10-4 s-1 to 7 s-1. This is indicative of intrinsic brittle behavior. Nickel-rich (Ni24A1) polycrystals, on the other hand, undergo a brittle-to-ductile transition upon raising the strain rate to above about 10-2 s-1. It is argued that the transition reflects the suppression of environmental embrittlement, not of the intermetallic per se but of a Ni-rich solid solution that decorates the grain boundaries of the off-stoichiometric alloy.

Three point bending tests on V-notched specimens machined from a component cast in EN-GJS 500-14 nodular iron solid solution strengthened by silicon have been carried out. The 3P bending tests were performed at different stroke speeds (10-3 ~ 102 mm/s). The resulting strain rates at the V notch varied in the range of 1·10-4 ~ 5,8 s-1. The fracture surface of 3P bending tests was quantified in terms of ductile and brittle fracture using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). EN-GJS 500-14 has an increased brittle behavior with increasing strain rate. Predominately ductile fracture was observed for the strain rates 1·10-4~4·10-2S-1. . At the strain rate of about 1 s-1 more significant change in ductile to brittle fracture is seen. The 3P bending tests at -15°C showed predominately brittle fracture for the strain rates investigated 3,6·10-2 ~ 2,3 s-1.

Tensile deformation behavior of ultrafine-grained (UFG) copper processed by accumulative roll-bonding (ARB) was studied under different strain rates at room temperature. It was found that the UFG copper under the strain rate of 10[Formula: see text] s[Formula: see text] led to a higher strength (higher flow stress level), flow stability (higher stress hardening rate) and fracture elongation. In the fracture surface of the sample appeared a large number of cleavage steps under the strain rate of 10[Formula: see text] s[Formula: see text], indicating a typical brittle fracture mode. When the strain rate is 10[Formula: see text] or 10[Formula: see text] s[Formula: see text], a great amount of dimples with few cleavage steps were observed, showing a transition from brittle to plastic deformation with increasing strain rate.

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.

Zn Alloys

The use of Cu and Ti in Zn alloys improves mechanical properties as solid solution and dispersoid particles (grain refiners) may harden the material and reduce creep deformation. This is one of the main design problems for parts made with Zn alloys, even at room temperature. In this work the mechanical behavior of a Zn-Cu-Ti low alloy is presented using tensile tests at different strain rates, as well as creep tests at different loads to obtain the value of the strain rate coefficient m in samples parallel and perpendicular to the rolling direction of the Zn strip. The microstructure of the alloy in its raw state, as well as heat treated at 250°C, is also analyzed, as the banded structure produced by rolling influences the strengthening mechanisms that can be achieved through the treatment parameters.

Strain Rates

Experimental results on a mild steel are reported from ballistics tests which gave rise to strain rates of up to 105 s−1. A finite-difference numerical technique which incorporates material inertia, elastic-strain hardening and strain-rate sensitivity is used to establish the strain-rate sensitivity constants p and D in the equation, σ4 = σ1 (1+(∊/D)1/ p). The rate sensitivity established in this study is compared with those reported by other researchers.

An investigation was conducted to determine the effects of the variables; temperature, strain rate, and precracking fatigue-stress level, on plane-strain crack toughness values of a rate and temperature-sensitive steel. The crack toughness behavior of a 3/4-in-thick structural steel plate, which had a static room-temperature yield stress of 45,000 psi, was examined over the temperature range from −280 to 0 deg F for strain rates of 8 × 10−5/sec, 3 × 103/sec, and 1.5/sec. Crack toughness data, which were obtained from notched bend and single-edge-notched specimens, are presented for precracking conditions obtained at a maximum nominal fatigue stress of 25 percent and 50 percent of the room-temperature yield stress. The plane-strain crack toughness, KIc-values showed only a small sensitivity to changes in temperature and no effect due to changes in strain rate. The beginning of the transition from plane-strain to plane-stress conditions occurred at successive increases in temperature for increasing strain rate. The requirement of B > 2.5 × (KIc/σys)2 for plane-strain behavior of high-strength steels was also valid for this material when the yield stress was evaluated at the test temperature and strain rate. Increasing the fatigue-cracking stress level from 25 to 50 percent of the room-temperature nominal yield stress increased the apparent KIc-values. The data showed that a necessary condition for obtaining valid KIc-values is that the plastic-zone size which develops during fatigue cracking at room temperature must be less than that which occurs at the low temperatures and elevated strain rates of the KIc tests.

Glass-coated Cu-Mn-Ga microwires were fabricated by Taylor-Ulitovsky technique. By means of energy dispersive spectroscopy microanalysis, an average alloy composition of Cu56Ga28Mn16 was determined. The temperature dependence of magnetization measured at a low magnetic field showed the coexistence of two ferromagnetic phases. The Curie temperature of one phase is 125 K and above room temperature for the other one. X-ray diffraction at room temperature and at 100 K reflects the presence of the same three crystalline phases corresponding to the cubic B2 Cu-Mn-Ga structure as a main phase and the minor phases of fcc Cu rich solid solution with Mn and Ga and the monoclinic CuO.

Brittle Mode

In this work the static and dynamic tensile properties of vanadium alloy V-5Cr-5Ti were investigated at strain rates ranged from 3.3x10-5/s to 1.2x102/s. The material microstructures were analyzed using optical microscope, SEM, TEM, XRD and EDS. Results show that the yield strength a increases with strain rate. The brittle-ductile transition strain-rate is about 101/s to102/s. At room temperature the tensile fracture at a low strain rate occurs via mixed modes of microvoid aggregating and transgranular cracking; at high strain rate the fracture occurs via a brittle mode. The analysis by TEM, XRD and EDX shows the existence of lath martensite, and on there exits precipitate phase of Ti(O,C, N) in grain boundaries.

The influence of the strain rate in the range of 3.3·10-5to 332 sec-1on the ductility of pure magnesium under hydrostatic pressure varying since 0.1 to 800 MPa and room temperature (293 K) has been researched. High plasticity of magnesium with small and large deformation speed under pressure was found. At pressure pure magnesium ductility reduces while strain rate increases; reduced plasticity is observed only when strain rate is equal to 0.17 sec-1, and above this rate, on the contrary, the ductility of magnesium increases. It is shown that the pressure at ductile-brittle transition increases from 142.2 to 241.5 MPa with strain rate increasing from 3.3·10-4up to 332 sec-1.

In this study, aluminium rods were cold extruded in a direct process by KOBO method in two variants: variant I with varying (decreasing) frequency of die oscillations necessary to maintain a constant extrusion force, and variant II with constant frequency of die oscillations, leading to a decrease in the extrusion force. The tensile test of rods was carried out in a temperature range of 20 - 200°C and at a strain rate from 8xE10-5 to 8xE10-1 s-1. Significant differences in the elongation of the tested rods were observed. It was found that rods extruded at variable die oscillations and stretched at room temperature had similar elongation, independent of the strain rate. With the increase of temperature, the elongation of samples stretched at a low speed was growing from a value of about 8% at room temperature up to 40% at 200°C. At high strain rates, despite the increasing temperature, the elongation remained at the same level, i.e. 5-6%. In rods extruded at constant die oscillations, the elongation at a low strain rate was growing with the temperature from 10% at room temperature up to 29% at 200°C. At high strain rates, the elongation decreased from 28% at room temperature to 11% at 200°C. The results were interrelated with examinations of the structure of rods and fractures of tensile specimens. In the material extruded by KOBO method with constant die oscillations, the beginnings of the recrystallization process were observed, absent in the material extruded at variable die oscillations.
