The stability and roughness of {111} and {100} solid/melt interfaces of fcc metals were investigated using a modified Temkin multi-layer model. It is demonstrated that {100}crystal/melt interface is more unstable and rougher than {111} interface. The effect of the stability of crystal/melt interface on the (100) texture formation in solidified fcc metals has been analysed and discussed.展开更多

An axis of CB misorientation is a direction [100], angle of misorientation makes from 2皍p in 23*. The interatomic interaction was opproximated by Morse' s pair semi-empirical potential. Two variants of relaxation technique were used: (1) rigid relax- ation with the change of atom quantity per a GB (vacancy relaxation ) and (2) full atomic relaxation by a molecular static method. The obtained orientation dependence has a good agreement with experi- ment. There are cusps on a curve in the range of special GB angles.The comparison of obtained curves with calculated ones in model Van der Merwe was carried out. Dependencies obtained in our investiga- tions are not smooth and have an oscillatory character. The oscillations reflect a discrete structure of a lattice.展开更多

The observations indicate that on a very microscale, the crack path of TSCC of or-brass follows {111} planes. The crack path very often alternates between {111} Planes to result in 'cleavage-like'facet, the usual average orientation of which is {110} with preferential microscopic crack propagation in (100) and (112) directions. The average orientation of wide secondary facets is often close to {100}. The size of {111} microfacets increases with incrmsing stress intensity K, which indicates that the microscopic crack path follows {111} planes on which some localized slip has occurred. Possible TSCC mechanisms which appear to be consistent with the microfraphic features observed in the present study are also discussed.展开更多
