This peak is thermally-activated having a very high relaxation strength up to 0.3 and a very high activation energy of about 2 eV. The fact that the peak disappears after rapid cooling of the specimen leads to the proposition that dislocation climb does not play a dominating role to the non-elastic motion of the dislocations giving rise to this peak. TEM observations show that the stable dislocation configuration in the twisted specimen after the 600°C anneal always consists of uniformly distributed dislocation networks. Subsequent tensile deformation destructs such dislocation networks and converts it into cell structures so that the twisting peak is suppressed. It is suggested that the dislocation slip enhanced by the non-conservative shift of the node of the dislocation network contributes dominately to the high relaxation strength of the twisting peak and the dislocation climb controls the relaxation time of the relaxation process.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":6969,"journal":{"name":"Acta Metallurgica","volume":"37 11","pages":"Pages 2953-2960"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0001-6160(89)90330-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77207313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model systems chosen for comparison with the numerical simulations included SiC whisker-reinforced 2124 aluminum alloys with well-characterized microstructures and 1100-o aluminum reinforced with different amounts of SiC particulates. The overall constitutive response of the composite and the evolution of stress and strain field quantities in the matrix of the composite were computed using finite element models within the context of axisymmetric and plane strain unit cell formulations. The results indicated that the development of significant triaxial stresses within the composite matrix, due to the constraint imposed by the reinforcements, provides an important contribution to strengthening. Systematic calculations of the alterations in matrix field quantities in response to controlled changes in reinforcement distribution give valuable insights into the effects of <em>particle clustering</em> on the tensile properties. The numerical results also deliver a mechanistic rationale for experimentally observed trends on: (i) the effects of reinforcement morphology and volume fraction on yield and strain hardening behavior of the composite, (ii) the pronounced influence of reinforcement clustering on the overall constitutive response, (iii) ductile failure by void growth within the composite matrix, (iv) the insensitivity of the yield strength of the composite to changes in matrix microstructure, and (v) the dependence of ductility on the microstructure of the matrix and on the morphology and distribution of the reinforcement. The predictions of the present analyses are compared and contrasted with current theories of elastic and plastic response in multi-phase materials in an attempt to develop an overall perspective on the mechanisms of composite strengthening and of matrix and interfacial failure.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":6969,"journal":{"name":"Acta Metallurgica","volume":"37 11","pages":"Pages 3029-3050"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1989-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0001-6160(89)90339-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76372244","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
