چکیده

A microstructural model of steady-state creep that couples grain-boundary transport, micromechanics, and grain sliding is employed to investigate the grain-boundary diffusional creep response of an idealized microstructure with variable boundary diffusivities. Both numerical and analytical methods were used to determine the stress state and, in some cases, the strain rate associated with an applied uniaxial, tensile stress. Various types of boundaries are considered, and the implications of our results for more general microstructures are discussed.

Mesoscale Simulation of Grain Boundary Diffusion Creep in the Presence of Grain Growth

Grain-boundary (GB) diffusion creep (Coble creep) is the dominant deformation mechanism for the fine-grained materials under low stress and at elevated temperature [1]. From the classical Coble creep formula [1], the strain rate is proportional to the external stress, and inversely proportional to the cube of the grain size: 3 ~ − d σ ε& . During creep deformation the grains become elongated in...

Triple junction diffusion and plastic flow in fine-grained materials

A theoretical model is suggested which describes the yield stress dependence on grain size in fine-grained materials, based upon competition between conventional dislocation slip, grain boundary diffusional creep (Coble creep) and triple junction diffusional creep. In the framework of the model, the contribution of diffusional creep mechanisms to plastic deformation increases with reduction of ...

NEW METHOD FOR LIFE ASSESSMENT OF 1%CR-0.5% MO LOW ALLOY STEEL ON THE BASE OF GRAIN BOUNDARY CREEP CAVITATIONS

Life assessment on the base of grain boundary creep cavitation of 1%Cr - 0.5%Mo low alloy steel has been discussed in this paper. Since microstructural degradation is one of the most important mechanisms that affects creep life, it is necessary to assess microstructural damage in order to estimate the life. Microstructural damage within the grain boundaries is a continuous phenomena starting fr...

Grain boundary strengthening in alumina by rare earth impurities.

Impurity doping often alters or improves the properties of materials. In alumina, grain boundaries play a key role in deformation mechanisms, particularly in the phenomenon of grain boundary sliding during creep at high temperatures. We elucidated the atomic-scale structure in alumina grain boundaries and its relationship to the suppression of creep upon doping with yttrium by using atomic reso...

Semi-analytical Solution for Time-dependent Creep Analysis of Rotating Cylinders Made of Anisotropic Exponentially Graded Material (EGM)

In the present paper, time dependent creep behavior of hollow circular rotating cylinders made of exponentially graded material (EGM) is investigated. Loading is composed of an internal pressure, a distributed temperature field due to steady state heat conduction with convective boundary condition and a centrifugal body force. All the material properties are assumed to be exponentially graded a...
