The microstructure evolution of γ′ phase, TCP phase and dislocation characteristic after creep rupture was studied by SEM and TEM. The results show that the alloy has excellent creep properties. Two different types of creep behavior can be shown in the creep curves. The primary creep is characterized by the high amplitude at test conditions of (760 °C, 600 MPa) and (850 °C, 550 MPa) and the primary creep strain is limited at (980 °C, 250 MPa), (1100 °C, 140 MPa) and (1120 °C, 120 MPa). A little change ofγ′precipitate morphology occurs at (760 °C, 600 MPa). The lateral merging of the γ′ precipitate has already begun at (850 °C, 550 MPa). Theγphase is surrounded by theγ′phase at (980 °C, 250 MPa). Theγphase is no longer continuous tested at (1070 °C, 140 MPa). At (1100 °C, 120 MPa), the thickness ofγphase continues to increase. No TCP phase precipitates in the specimens at (760 °C, 600 MPa), (850 °C, 550 MPa) and (980 °C, 250 MPa). Needle shaped TCP phase precipitates in the specimens tested at (1070 °C, 140 MPa) and (1100 °C, 120 MPa). The dislocation shear mechanism including stacking fault formation is operative at lower temperature and high stress. The dislocation by-passing mechanism occurs to form networks atγ/γ′interface under the condition of high temperature and lower stress.展开更多

The influence of temperature on flow stress, strain hardening rate and strain rate sensitivity was investigated experimentally. The results show that both the effect of temperature on flow stress and its strain rate sensitivity of ECAPed Al is much larger than those of the coarse-grained Al. The temperature sensitivity of ultrafine-grained Al is comparatively weaker than that of the coarse-grained Al. Based on the experimental results, the apparent activation volume was estimated at different temperatures and strain rates. The forest dislocation interactions is the dominant thermally activated mechanism for ECAPed Al compressed at quasi-static strain rates, while the viscous drag plays an important role at high strain rates.展开更多

The...An as-solution treated Mg-6Gd-1Y-0.4Zr alloy was processed by low temperature thermo-mechanical treatments (LT-TMT), including cold tension with various strains followed by aging at 200 °C to peak hardness. The results show that the precipitation kinetics of the alloy experienced LT-TMT is greatly accelerated and the aging time to peak hardness is greatly decreased with increasing tensile strain. The tensile yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and elongation at room temperature of the alloy after cold tension with strain of 10% and peak aging at 200 °C are 251 MPa, 296 MPa and 8%, respectively, which are superior to the commercial heat-resistant WE54 alloy, although the latter has a higher rare earth element content.展开更多

The effects of the amount and length of graft chains macromonomer PIPAAm, the total amount of organic matters, and the solid loading on the rheological properties of suspensions were investigated, and the drying mechanism of gelcast green body was analyzed. The results show that ZnO suspensions with the gel system still display shear- thinning rheological behavior, but its viscosity increases with increasing the addition amount and relative molecular mass of PIPAAm graft chain, and the total organic matter content. The PIPAAm graft chains inhibit or even eliminate the formation of the "dense layer” on the surface of gelcast ZnO green bodies, and accelerate the drying of green bodies. The introduction of PIPAAm graft chains facilitates the shrinkage of the gelcast ZnO green bodies, which is a feasible method to increase the relative density of green bodies.展开更多

The compressive stress--strain curves were obtained at the temperature ranging from 298 to 773 K and strain rate ranging from 1×10^(-3) to 5 s ^(-1). The results showed that the dynamic compressive strength decreased more slowly than the quasi-static compressive strength at elevated temperatures, which was attributed to the different failure modes of the composite under dynamic and quasi-static load. The strain rate sensitivity increased from 0.02 to 0.13 when the temperature increased from room temperature to 773 K, suggesting that the strain rate sensitivity of this type of composite is a function of temperature.展开更多

The constitutive equation for the pre-extruded ZK60A alloy can be described by hyperbolic sine function. Processing maps were constructed from true strains of -0.2 to -0.8. The alloy experienced complete dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and showed good workability in the temperature range of 300-400 ℃ and the strain rate range of 0.01-0.001 s-Z, where hot working in pre-extruded ZK60A, such as forging, can be carried out. For large deformation to true strain of over -0.5, strain rates above 0.1 s-1 are not recommended at all temperatures, where flow instability such as local strain concentration, twinning deformation, abnormal grain growth, micro-cracks, and shear fracture were observed. Climb-controlled dislocation creep dominates both the plastic deformation and nucleation of DRX of the pre-extruded ZK60A magnesium alloy.展开更多

The results indicate that the creep rate becomes a little faster with the reduction of the uranium dioxide grain size at the same temperature and the same load. At the same temperature, the logarithmic value of the steady creep rate vs stress has linear relation, and with increasing load, the steady creep rate of the sintered uranium dioxide pellet increases. Under the same load, the steady creep rate of the sintered uranium dioxide pellet increases with increasing temperature; and the creep rates of sintered uranium dioxide pellet with the grain size of 9.0 μm and 23.8 μm under 10 MPa are almost the same. The creep process is controlled both by Nabarro--Herring creep and Hamper-Dorn creep for uranium dioxide pellet with grain size of 9.0 μm, while Hamper---Dora creep is the dominantmechanism for uranium dioxide with grain size of 23.8 μm.展开更多
