HMX晶体热致相变对损伤的影响

HMX基PBX炸药混合体系中炸药晶体在发生高温熔化和分解反应之前，会率先发生非均匀热膨胀和固相晶型转变，使材料的力学性能和安全性能发生突变。为探究HMX晶体的热致相变对材料内部损伤演化的影响机制，发展了考虑HMX晶体热膨胀和相变等变形机制的热力耦合晶体本构模型，从力学角度揭示了黏结剂包覆HMX晶体相变对体积变形、应力状态以及裂纹成核演化过程的影响机理，量化分析了升温速率对材料相变和裂纹损伤状态的影响规律。结果表明：随着加载温度升高，HMX晶体的热膨胀和β→δ相变导致体积增大，晶体内部形成拉伸应力状态，同时晶体与黏结剂相互挤压形成的局部压剪作用使晶体内部出现裂纹成核和扩展现象。相变温度附近HMX晶体内部裂纹成核和扩展数量显著增加，晶体内部发生不可逆损伤。外界升温速率对晶体内部裂纹形核扩展与损伤造成显著影响，较高的升温速率会加大晶体损伤程度，增加炸药内潜在热点源及意外点火风险。

铝在形变过程中亚结构的形成问题(Ⅰ)

近几年来,变形晶体中亚结构的形成机构问题,曾引起很多争论,其中以Wood及Cahn为代表的两种理论最为突出。Wood及其合作者用多晶体铝样品,经不同温度及不同应变速度的形变后,依据在背射X射線照相上反射点数目的改变,认为在范性形变过程中,晶粒是直接地被分裂成小晶块的,而且这些小晶块又相互发生转动和移动,使块与块之间产生晶向差。Cahn则用室温变形的铝单晶,经高温熟炼后,观察劳厄星芒中辉纹的产生及改变。他认为在晶体内由于形变而产生的扭折带,当高温熟炼时,发生多边形化,所以在原晶粒内形成了许多具有微小晶向差的晶块。

Evaluating the effects of loading parameters on single-crystal slip in tantalum using molecular mechanics

This study is aimed at developing a physics-based crystal plasticity finite element model for body-centred cubic (BCC) metals, through the introduction of atomic-level deformation information from molecular dynamics (MD) investigations of dislocation motion at the onset of plastic flow. In this study, three critical variables governing crystal plasticity mediated by dislocation motion are considered. MD simulations are first performed across a range of finite temperatures up to 600K to quantify the temperature dependence of critical stress required for slip initiation. An important feature of slip in BCC metals is that it is not solely dependent on the Schmid law measure of resolved shear stress, commonly employed in crystal plasticity models. The configuration of a screw dislocation and its subsequent motion is studied under different load orientations to quantify these non-Schmid effects. Finally, the influence of strain rates on thermal activation is studied by inducing higher stresses during activation at higher applied strain rates. Functional dependence of the critical resolved shear stress on temperature, loading orientation and strain rate is determined from the MD simulation results. The functional forms are derived from the thermal activation mechanisms that govern the plastic behaviour and quantification of relevant deformation variables. The resulting physics-based rate-dependent crystal plasticity model is implemented in a crystal plasticity finite element code. Uniaxial simulations reveal orientation-dependent tension–compression asymmetry of yield that more accurately represents single-crystal experimental results than standard models.     

Three-dimensional quantification of texture heterogeneity in single-crystal aluminium subjected to equal channel angular pressing

Abstract

A three-dimensional crystal plasticity finite element method (3D CPFEM) modelling of a real equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) process for investigating the mechanical properties and texture evolutions of single-crystal aluminium has been developed for the first time. The challenge of modelling such a severe plastic deformation via 3D CPFEM is how to accurately predict the deformation mechanism under the complicated contact conditions between a billet and a die. The validation by comparison with experimental observations demonstrates that the developed 3D CPFEM ECAP model is able to precisely capture the deformation characteristics at the microscale. Furthermore, this research clarified the previously remaining disputes such as the microstructural formation mechanism in the deformed area and the deformation nature in the plastic deformation zone. It is also the first time to extensively discuss the orientation-dependent deformation feature of the ECAP-processed billets, including morphology, lattice rotation angle and grain refinement.     

Grain-boundary hardening in polycrystalline copper-based solid solutions

A study is made of the contribution of grain-boundary hardening to the overall hardening in a polycrystalline material on the basis of Ashby's model. Yield curves are used for copper-based solid solutions in polycrystalline and singlecrystal forms. It is shown that the contribution from statistically accumulated dislocations to the yield stress in a polycrystalline specimen reflects the behavior of the corresponding single crystal. The contribution from grain boundaries to the yield stress can be described in terms of the additional dislocation density due to the joint grain deformation in the aggregate up to high strains. At low strains, the main role in hardening of a polycrystalline material is played by the grain boundaries. This extends up to larger strains as the strain temperature is reduced and the alloy-element concentration increases.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 1, pp. 47–52, January, 1984.     

Dislocation-based plasticity model and micro-beam Laue diffraction analysis of polycrystalline Ni foil: A forward prediction

A physically-based, rate and length-scale dependent strain gradient crystal plasticity framework was employed to simulate the polycrystalline plastic deformation at the microscopic level in a large-grained, commercially pure Ni sample. The latter was characterised in terms of the grain morphology and orientation (in the bulk) by micro-beam Laue diffraction experiments carried out on beamline B16 at Diamond Light Source. The corresponding finite element model was developed using a grain-based mesh with the specific grain orientation assignment appropriate for the sample considered. Sample stretching to 2% plastic strain was simulated, and a post-processor was developed to extract the information about the local lattice misorientation (curvature), enabling forward-prediction of the Laue diffraction patterns. The ‘streaking’ phenomenon of the Laue spots (anisotropic broadening of two-dimensional (2D) diffraction peaks observed on the 2D detector) was correctly captured by the simulation, as constructed by direct superposition of reflections from different integration points within the diffraction gauge volume. Good agreement was found between the images collected from experiments and simulation patterns at various positions in the sample.

Deformation textures produced in diamond anvil experiments, analysed in radial diffraction geometry

Diamond anvil cells may not only impose pressure upon a sample but also a compressive stress that produces elastic and plastic deformation of polycrystalline samples. The plastic deformation may result in texture development if the material deforms by slip or mechanical twinning, or if grains have a non-equiaxed shape. In radial diffraction geometry, texture is revealed by variation of intensity along Debye rings relative to the compression direction. Diffraction images (obtained by CCD or image plate) can be used to extract quantitative texture information. Currently the most elegant and powerful method is a modified Rietveld technique as implemented in the software package MAUD. From texture data one can evaluate the homogeneity of strain in a diamond anvil cell, the strain magnitude and deformation mechanisms, the latter by comparing observed texture patterns with results from polycrystal plasticity simulations. Some examples such as olivine, magnesiowuestite, MgSiO(3) perovskite and ε-iron are discussed.

Phase composition and low-frequency internal friction of ZrO2 + 4 mol % Y2O3 ceramics

Low-frequency internal friction was studied at a torsional-vibration frequency of 24 Hz in polycrystalline samples of ZrO₂ + 4 mol % Y₂O₃ ceramics. The samples were prepared using cold isostatic pressing of a powder followed by sintering in air, hot isostatic pressing of the sample in an argon atmosphere, subsequent mechanical deformation of the surface, and further calcination in air. The x-ray phase analysis method is used to study the variation in the phase composition after mechanical deformation of the sample surface followed by calcination in air. The internal friction was measured in the temperature range 280–380 K on a sample subjected to calcination in air. At 315 K, an internal-friction peak was revealed, which is explained by stress relaxation at the boundaries of the T’-phase domains.
