Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KEY FEATURES: - A unified, fundamental and quantitative resource. The result of 5 years of investigation from researchers around the world - New data from a range of new techniques, including synchrotron radiation X-ray topography provide safer and surer methods of identifying deformation mechanisms - Informing the future direction of research in intermediate and high temperature processes by providing original treatment of dislocation climb DESCRIPTION: Thermally Activated Mechanisms in Crystal Plasticity is a unified, quantitative and fundamental resource for material scientists investigating the strength of metallic materials of various structures at extreme temperatures. Crystal plasticity is usually controlled by a limited number of elementary dislocation mechanisms, even in complex structures. Those which determine dislocation mobility and how it changes under the influence of stress and temperature are of key importance for understanding and predicting the strength of materials. The authors describe in a consistent way a variety of thermally activated microscopic mechanisms of dislocation mobility in a range of crystals. The principles of the mechanisms and equations of dislocation motion are revisited and new ones are proposed. These describe mostly friction forces on dislocations such as the lattice resistance to glide or those due to sessile cores, as well as dislocation cross-slip and climb. They are critically assessed by comparison with the best available experimental results of microstructural characterization, in situ straining experiments under an electron or a synchrotron beam, as well as accurate transient mechanical tests such as stress relaxation experiments. Some recent attempts at atomistic modeling of dislocation cores under stress and temperature are also considered since they offer a complementary description of core transformations and associated energy barriers. In addition to offering guidance and assistance for further experimentation, the book indicates new ways to extend the body of data in particular areas such as lattice resistance to glide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1950s the direct observation of dislocations became possible, stimulat ing the interest of many research workers in the dynamics of dislocations. This led to major contributions to the understanding of the plasticity of various crys talline materials. During this time the study of metals and alloys of fcc and hcp structures developed remarkably. In particular, the discovery of the so-called in ertial effect caused by the electron and phonon frictional forces greatly influenced the quantitative understanding of the strength of these metallic materials. Statis tical studies of dislocations moving through random arrays of point obstacles played an important role in the above advances. These topics are described in Chaps. 2-4. Metals and alloys with bcc structure have large Peierls forces compared to those with fcc structure. The reasons for the delay in studying substances with bcc structure were mostly difficulties connected with the purification techniques and with microscopic studies of the dislocation core. In the 1970s, these difficulties were largely overcome by developments in experimental techniques and computer physics. Studies of dislocations in ionic and covalent bonding materials with large Peierls forces provided infonnation about the core structures of dislocations and their electronic interactions with charged particles. These are the main subjects in Chaps. 5-7.

Abstract: Current strategies of computational crystal plasticity that focus on individual atoms or dislocations are impractical for real-scale, large-strain problems even with today''s computing power. Dislocation-density based approaches are a way forward but a critical issue to address is a realistic description of the interactions between dislocations. In this thesis, a new scheme for computational dynamics of dislocation-density functions is proposed, which takes full consideration of the mutual elastic interactions between dislocations based on the Hirth-Lothe formulation. Other features considered include (i) continuity nature of the movements of dislocation densities, (ii) forest hardening, (iii) generation according to high spatial gradients in dislocation densities, and (iv) annihilation. Numerical implementation by the finite-volume method, which is well suited for flow problems with high gradients, is discussed. Numerical examples performed for a single-crystal aluminium model show typical strength anisotropy behaviour comparable to experimental observations. Furthermore, this approach has been applied to three engineering problems and discussed in detail: (i) Application on small-scale crystal plasticity successfully captures a number of key experimental features, including power-law relation between strength and size, low dislocation storage and jerky deformation. (ii) Crystal softening and enhanced cell formation are predicted by applying oscillatory loads. The simulations reveal the main mechanism for subcell formation under oscillatory loadings to be the enhanced elimination of statistically stored dislocations by the oscillatory stress, leaving behind geometrically necessary dislocations with low Schmid factors which then form the subgrain walls. This is the first simulation effort to successfully predict the cell formation phenomenon under vibratory loadings. (iii) Tensile deformation of tri-crystals with grain size ranging from 200 to 500 can be divided into three stages. The results indicate different controlling mechanisms of the flow stress at different stages of deformation and grain sizes. Changing the middle grain tilt angle with respect to the outer grains is found to affect the stress-strain relationship and the distribution of plastic strain in the three grains. A refined meso-scale scheme based on the full dynamics of dislocation-density functions is also proposed aiming to bridge across the meso scale. In this scheme, the evolution of the dislocation-density functions is derived from a coarse-graining procedure which clearly defines the relationship between the discrete-line and density representations of the dislocation microstructure. Full dynamics of the dislocation-density functions are considered based on an "all-dislocation" concept in which statistically stored dislocations are preserved and treated in the same way as geometrically necessary dislocations. Elastic interactions between dislocations are treated in accordance with Mura''s formula for eigen-stress. Dislocation generation is considered as a consequence of dislocations to maintain their connectivity, and a special scheme is devised for this purpose. The model is applied to simulate a number of intensive microstructures involving discrete dislocation events, including loop expansion and shrinkage under applied and self-stress, dipole annihilation, and Orowan

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most metals are crystalline materials that can undergo significant plastic (permanent) deformation when subjected to applied loading. Plastic deformation is usually accompanied by an increase in the flow stress of the material. This phenomenon is called strain hardening and is of vital importance in many engineering applications, including aerospace, automotive, and power generation industries. Developing accurate material models to predict the plastic response and hardening behavior of metals during deformation is a prerequisite to the engineering design processes, which requires a physical understanding of the underlying deformation mechanisms. In single crystals, plastic deformation of the crystal is governed by the evolution of dislocations--line defects inside the crystalline materials which marks the boundary between the slipped and unslipped regions--moving and interacting in response to the applied loading. Dislocation dynamics (DD) simulations, which track the time-space trajectories of individual dislocation lines, provide a promising tool to establish a physical link between the dislocation microstructure evolution and the strain hardening phenomenon. However, the high computational cost of DD simulations renders the accessible length and time scales to well below those which are relevant to most engineering applications. Due to this challenge, instead of directly using DD simulations for engineering applications, we have utilized DD simulations to delineate how constitutive relations of crystal plasticity (CP) can be constructed for FCC copper, based on coarse-graining of high-throughput DD simulations. This thesis consists of three main components, and we show how they fit together into a complete, physical model like three pieces of a puzzle. The first piece is a massive DD simulation database that we were able to generate thanks to recent computational advances in DD, including the subcycling time-integration algorithm and its implementation on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). By systematically coarse-graining the database we present a strain hardening model which consists of two components: 1) a dislocation multiplication model, which accounts for slip-free multiplication, and 2) an exponential flow-rule connecting slip system shear rate to the resolved shear stress through an exponential function. These components can be thought of as the second and third puzzle pieces. By analyzing the data, it was discovered that dislocation multiplication frequently occurs on slip systems which experience zero applied shear stress (i.e., zero Schmid factor) and have a plastic strain rate of zero; we termed such multiplication slip-free multiplication and it serves as the second puzzle piece. This finding questions the assumption of the existing phenomenological expression that multiplication is proportional to the shear rate. We propose to add a correction term to the generalized Kocks-Mecking expression to account for slip-free multiplication, whose mechanistic explanation is provided. A major finding of this thesis is that DD results suggest an exponential flow-rule, in contrast to the commonly used power-law flow-rule, even in the cases where thermal fluctuations are not present. The exponential flow-rule is the third piece in the puzzle of the presented strain hardening model. We demonstrate that the observed exponential flow-rule, despite the common notion that thermal fluctuations are the responsible mechanism, can be explained by statistical properties of the dislocation links. Hence, by statistically analyzing the number density and plastic activity of links in terms of their length, we formulate a physically justified link length based flow rule which can numerically capture the exponential dependence of shear rate on shear stress. The proposed link length based flow-rule has two key components: 1) the number density of links on each slip system, which was observed to follow the sum of two exponentials distribution, and 2) an average velocity of links as a function of resolved shear stress and link length, whose fitting coefficients are independent of the loading orientation. The exponential dependence of on resolved shear stress is traced to the spatial fluctuation of the internal stress field, which can be approximated by a Laplace distribution. The proposed average velocity function incorporates the Laplace distribution in its form. This thesis shows that discrete dislocation dynamics simulations can be used to inform higher length scale models of non-phenomenological constitutive relations. The presented model captures the strain hardening as a result of slip system interactions in FCC single crystals. It works as an example for developing similar coarse-grained models based on DDD which includes additional strain hardening mechanisms such as cross-slip, or precipitate hardening. We hope that the present thesis motivates more researchers to use DDD simulations for constructing constitutive relations.
