As a fundamental and ubiquitous non-equilibrium phenomenon, shear localization has received significant attention during past several decades. However, the collective behavior of multiple shear bands in CCAs or M/HEAs has not been comprehensively elucidated. Here, we tackle this problem in CoCrNi medium entropy alloy by thick-walled cylinders technology. Via the experimental design, the specimens subjected to diverse deformations were effectively \"frozen\", thereby facilitating the acquisition of the self-organization characteristics of multiple shear bands in distinct evolution stages. A notable scaling law of multiple shear band spacing was identified. To uncover the underlying physical mechanism of the scaling law, a multiple shear band energy dissipation evolution dynamics model was formulated. Subsequently, a competing map of shear band nucleation and growth was established. It is found that the coordinated propagation of stacking faults and twins may trigger the transformation from the face-centered cubic structure to the hexagonal close-packed structure and even amorphization in late stage of shear band growth. The amorphization regions possess a high probability of serving as nucleation sites with a propensity for void formation. Eventually, with the progression of void evolution, fracture occurs.","PeriodicalId":340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Plasticity","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143878043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model incorporates dislocation density gradients and grain-boundary sliding to quantify dislocation density evolutions in matrix and multi-stage recrystallization grains during hot compression.

However, the strong creep anisotropy typical of the alloy sheets prepared by this method, e.g. cold-rolling with a large thickness reduction, leads to the difficulty in accurate creep age forming of doubly curved panels. Clarifying the influence of different types of microstructures on the creep deformation is pivotal in tailoring the creep anisotropy of largely pre-deformed Al alloys. This study investigated the creep aging responses of largely pre-deformed Al-Cu alloys prepared using two different processes, i.e. unidirectional rolling and cross-rolling, with a same total thickness reduction of 80%. Cross-rolling was applied by changing the rolling direction by 90° about normal direction in the second step. The in-plane creep anisotropy index of the sample prepared through the 3:1 (ratio of the reductions in two steps) cross-rolling scheme is about 13%, much lower than that (about 49%) of the unidirectional rolling sample. The as-rolled and creep-aged samples for unidirectional rolling, 1:1 and 3:1 cross-rolling exhibited similar tensile properties and had a yield strength anisotropy index less than 6%. Detailed characterizations by electron back-scattering diffraction (EBSD) and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) reveal that cross-rolling mainly changes the dislocation substructures rather than the grain orientations and precipitates in the largely pre-deformed alloys. The dislocation cells with a diameter ranging from 400 nm to 1.8 μm changed from the \"elliptical\" shape in the unidirectional rolling sample to a \"circular\" shape in the 3:1 cross rolling sample. The crystal plasticity finite element models considering the effect of dislocation substructures were established to simulate the creep deformation in the largely pre-deformed Al alloys. Multi-scale experimental characterizations and crystal plasticity finite element simulations demonstrate that the texture and grain shape have little influence while the dislocation substructure plays a dominant role in the creep anisotropy in the largely pre-deformed Al-Cu alloys. Our findings inspire alleviating creep anisotropy of largely pre-deformed Al alloys by shape tailoring of dislocation sub-structures.","PeriodicalId":340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Plasticity","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143872860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To maximise nuclear reactor operation lifetimes, it is essential to develop mechanistic understanding of failure and degradation mechanisms in safety-critical components for increasingly holistic reactor design codes and standards. In this paper, advanced micromechanical testing with <em>in situ</em> digital image correlation is used in combination with crystal plasticity modelling to study various aspects of damage associated with δ hydride precipitates in Zircaloy-4 for reactor fuel cladding applications. Measurements of static and cyclic hydride precipitation strains demonstrate a discernible strain field directionality (associated with intragranular precipitation) which was not previously reported, while cyclic thermomechanical loads are shown to promote the cyclic accumulation of strain due to repeated precipitation and dissolution of hydrides (hydride strain ratcheting) for up to five cycles, leading to the development of networks of geometrically necessary dislocations. Using crystal plasticity finite element modelling of the volumetric expansion associated with hydride precipitation, the strain directionality phenomenon is shown to be linked with hydride morphology. Comparisons with experimental strain fields also suggest that hydride plasticity is an important consideration for damage accumulation during precipitation. Experimental measurements of short fatigue crack propagation through Zircaloy-4 microstructures containing hydrides reveal new crack propagation mechanisms including decohesion, which on average, lead to accelerated rates of crack growth. Annealing twins and hydride precipitation therein are also implicated in even more damaging fatigue behaviour as fatigue cracks are provided a seemingly brittle and direct path for fracture, which was not previously reported in the literature.","PeriodicalId":340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Plasticity","volume":"56 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143872858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The experimental boundary conditions, as well as the material composition and component design optimization, are highly dependent on material phenomena related to various material scales and constituents. It is therefore necessary to develop finite element constitutive models that are validated against experimental results and incorporate various material phenomena in order to reduce the experimental effort and evaluate the composite’s performance with reliable predictions. In this work, an existing thermo-mechanically coupled constitutive model for polyamide 6 is extended in a thermodynamically consistent manner to represent the anisotropic composite behavior, including anisotropic conduction, thermal expansion as well as internal heat generation associated with irreversible processes. Furthermore, the crystallization process is incorporated using experimental standard (S-DSC) and flash (F-DSC) differential scanning calorimetry results. The thermal and mechanical model parameters of the homogenized macroscopic material formulation are identified and the model response is successfully validated with a data base comprising both experimental and virtual results. Finally, the model capabilities are assessed in several thermo-mechanical structural computations, including a 3D thermoforming example in comparison with experimental results. In particular, the influence of the anisotropy on material self-heating, thermal expansion and the resulting crystalline state is investigated, demonstrating the potential of this new approach to efficiently and accurately predict FRPs in the future.

A moderate addition of rhenium (Re) can further enhance the mechanical properties by influencing dislocation evolution within the two-phase microstructure and mitigating rafting. The present work aims to quantitatively correlate dislocation evolution and rafting in the two-phase microstructure with the macroscopic mechanical behavior of NBSCSs. To this end, a representative volume element (RVE) consisting of a cubic precipitate surrounded by horizontal and vertical matrix channels is built, and a micromechanical homogenization method based on small perturbation analysis is adopted. To improve the computational efficiency while maintaining a reasonable accuracy, an approximate algorithm is proposed. Based on this, a two-phase microstructure-based crystal plasticity (CP) constitutive model that incorporates Re-influenced dislocation evolution mechanisms and accounts for Re-influenced evolution of the two-phase microstructure (i.e., rafting) has been developed. Using a unified set of constitutive parameters, this CP model successfully predicts both the instantaneous plasticity and prolonged-time creep behaviors of NBSCSs under various temperatures, loading rates and loading orientations. It is noteworthy that the influence of Re doping on both dislocation evolution and rafting is considered in the present CP model, significantly enhancing its ability for describing the mechanical behavior of NBSCSs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Plasticity","volume":"189 ","pages":"Article 104343"},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143836870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
