Phase-field study for effect of chemical composition on pre-precipitation process of γ′ phase in Ni-Al-Ti alloy

The pre-precipitation processes of γ＇ phase in Ni-Al-Ti alloy with different chemical compositions are investigated by microscopic phase-field dynamics model. The simulation results show that the early precipitated phase with L10 structure is formed before the formation of γ＇ phase. With the increase of Al content, the composition of precipitated phase is transformed from the co-existence of γ＇ phase and material phase into single y phase. Furthermore, excessive Al content can stimulate the production of γ＇ phase, and the conversion time from L10 phase to L12 phase will lag behind other samples with lower Al con-tent. By analyzing the occupation probability of Ti, it can be found that the solid solution strengthening effect of Ti is reduced with the increase of Al component.

温度对小角度对称倾斜晶界位错运动影响的晶体相场模拟

采用晶体相场法模拟了纳米尺度下小角度对称倾斜晶界的结构和位错运动,针对弛豫过程和附加外应力过程,观察了晶界上位错运动的位置变化和体系自由能变化,分析了温度对小角度对称倾斜晶界的结构和晶界上位错运动的影响规律.研究表明,弛豫过程中体系温度越低,体系自由能下降速率越大,原子规则排列速率增加,体系自由能达到稳定状态所需的时间越短,晶界达到稳定状态时位错对排列愈发整齐,呈现直线规则排列.外应力作用下,温度越低,晶体位错对首次相遇时间越长,晶体形成单个晶粒时间越长,位错对首次相遇到晶体内位错对完全消失过程时间越长;随着温度的降低,体系自由能出现多段上升下降,位错对反应也愈加复杂,趋向于逐对抵消.

时效工艺对Ni_(75)Al_(15)Ti_(10)合金沉淀过程影响的微观相场模拟（英文）

通过微观相场动力学模型模拟了Ni_(75)Al_(15)Ti_(10)合金的沉淀过程。首先通过原子演化图发现,沉淀过程分为两步,第一步为L1_0相向L1_2相的转变,第二步为化学计量比的L1_2相的形成。其次研究了单级时效温度对微结构,原子占位以及原子扩散的影响。结果表明:随着温度升高,无规则形状的γ′相变为规则立方体状并且择优取向显著,同时Al原子从γ′相界面向内部扩散,Ti原子正好相反。但是温度越高,原子占位以及有序化程度越低。为了提高γ′相的原子占位,进一步比较了双级时效对γ′相的影响。发现双级时效不仅能获得规则排列稳定的γ′相,同时还可以提高Al与Ti原子在其正位处的原子占位并抑制反位缺陷的产生。
