Tensile Fatigue Deformation of Metals

Severe Plastic Deformation of Metals

This paper provides an introduction in the field of severe plastic deformation (SPD). First of all the main methods to produce SPD materials are discussed. In the following section, the mechanisms leading to the formation of fine grains are reviewed and the influence of changes in strain path is highlighted. During post-SPD thermal annealing, some typical microstructural changes take place. The...

Strengthening of Metals through Severe Plastic Deformation

The processing of bulk metals through the application of severe plastic deformation (SPD) provides an opportunity for achieving excellent grain refinement to the submicrometer or even the nanometer range. These SPD procedures produce materials exhibiting improved mechanical properties including very high strength. This report describes recent results demonstrating the strengthening of conventio...

Micromechanics and Macromechanics of the Tensile Deformation of Nacre

Many natural materials exhibit extraordinary combinations of mechanical properties which are achieved through highly tailored and organized hierarchical microstructures. In particular, materials which function as natural body armor, such as mollusk shells, possess a structure with important features and properties at a variety of length scales, from the various constituent building blocks to th...
