AbstractFine decagonal phase lamellae-bearing icosahedral Al-Pd-Mn quasicrystals were tested compressionally at temperatures of 997 to 1073 K and initial strain rate of 3 × 10−5. to I × 10−4 S−1, and stress relaxation tests were performed at various stages of deformation. The results confirmed the thermally activated nature of deformation, and the stress exponent of strain rate was around 4. Internal stress for deformation estimated by Kikuchi's method reached 50 to 90 % of applied stress. The effective stress exponent of strain rate was revealed to be about 1.3. At least a part of high internal stress was attributable to complicated dislocation microstructure.

The deformation behaviour of the ternary magnesium alloy AX41 (4%Al-1%Ca-balance Mg) were investigated in uniaxial tension tests at temperatures between 20 and 300 °C and at an initial strain rate ranging in the order 10-4 s-1. The yield stress of the alloy is very sensitive to the testing temperature. Stress relaxation tests were performed with the aim to reveal physical base of deformation processes.

The stress relaxation phenomena in magnesium alloys, containing Al, Sr and Ca solutes have been investigated. The samples were deformed at a constant initial strain rate at various temperatures between room temperature and 300 °C. Stress relaxation, i.e. a decrease in the stress with time, was measured at various stresses and at various temperatures. The stress relaxation curves were analysed as a function of the internal stress at the beginning of the relaxation and the test temperature.

AbstractA variety of Fe3Al alloys including Fe-25Al, Fe-28Al, Fe-28Al-4Cr and Fe-28Al-2Ti (all in atomic percent) have been investigated by tensile test to find if these alloys could have superplasticity at elevated temperatures, the results revealed that all these alloys exhibited large elongations when the temperature is higher than 600°C. At 850°C , under appropriate initial strain rate, the elongation is all above 300%. For Fe-28Al-2Ti, the maximum elongation reached 585%. Maximum m values are all above 0.3. Initial grain sizes are bigger than 100μm but became finer after deformation. Fracture happened with necking but no cavities were found under optical microscope. Characteristics of this phenomenon were summarized and discussed.

AS21 magnesium alloy (2.1Al-1Si-balance Mg in wt.%) and the alloy reinforced with short δ-Al2O3fibres (Saffil®) were deformed in compression at temperatures between 23 and 300 °C. Stress relaxation tests were performed in order to reveal features of the thermally activated dislocation motion. Internal and effective components of the applied stress have been estimated. The activation volume decreases with increasing effective stress. The values of the activation volume and the activation enthalpy indicate that the main thermally activated process in the alloy as well as in the composite is the dislocation motion in non-compact planes.

Indentation stress relaxation tests were carried out on high-purity polycrystalline copper specimens at room temperature with a flat cylindrical indenter. The experimental results showed that the resulting load-time relaxation curves can be described by a power law, which coupled an internal stress and an integral constant between the effective stress and relaxation time. Then the internal stress, integral constant, and dislocation velocity stress exponent can be extracted from load relaxation curves. The derived values from this way were consistent with the results of conventional uniaxial compression stress relaxation tests. These agreements are not only useful to understand deformation (dislocation) mechanisms under the indenter, but also exhibit an attractive potential of measuring nano/micromechanical properties of materials by indentation test.

Stress relaxation tests have been used in order to determine parameters of a possible thermally activated process in AZ31 magnesium alloy. The samples were deformed at a constant initial strain rate of 6.7x10-5 s-1 at various temperatures between room temperature and 300 °C. Stress relaxation, i.e. a decrease in the stress with time, was measured at various stress levels and at various temperatures. An analysis of the stress relaxation curves enabled to estimate the internal stress as a function of the strain and the test temperature. It has been shown that the activation volume is a function of the effective stress independently of the deformation temperature.
