Book Grain Boundaries

Download or read book Grain Boundaries written by Louisette Priester and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-28 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grain boundaries are a main feature of crystalline materials. They play a key role in determining the properties of materials, especially when grain size decreases and even more so with the current improvements of processing tools and methods that allow us to control various elements in a polycrystal. This book presents the theoretical basis of the study of grain boundaries and aims to open up new lines of research in this area. The treatment is light on mathematical approaches while emphasizing practical examples; the issues they raise are discussed with reference to theories. The general approach of the book has two main goals: to lead the reader from the concept of ‘ideal’ to ‘real’ grain boundaries; to depart from established knowledge and address the opportunities emerging through "grain boundary engineering", the control of morphological and crystallographic features that affect material properties. The book is divided in three parts: I ‘From interganular order to disorder’ deals with the concept of the perfect grain boundary, at equilibrium, and questions the maintenance of its crystalline state. II ‘From the ideal to the real grain boundary’ deals with the concept of the faulted grain boundary. It attempts to reveal the influence of the grain boundary structure on its defects, their formation and their accommodation. III ‘From free to constrained grain boundaries’ is devoted to grain boundary ensembles starting from the triple junction (the elemental configuration) to real grain boundary networks in polycrystals This part covers a new and topical development in the field. It presents for the first time an avenue for researchers working on macroscopic aspects, to approach the scale of description of grain boundaries. Audience: graduate students, researchers and engineers in Materials Science and all those scientists pursuing grain boundary engineering in order to improve materials performance.

Book Grain Boundary Segregation in Metals

Download or read book Grain Boundary Segregation in Metals written by Pavel Lejcek and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-07-20 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grain boundaries are important structural components of polycrystalline materials used in the vast majority of technical applications. Because grain boundaries form a continuous network throughout such materials, their properties may limit their practical use. One of the serious phenomena which evoke these limitations is the grain boundary segregation of impurities. It results in the loss of grain boundary cohesion and consequently, in brittle fracture of the materials. The current book deals with fundamentals of grain boundary segregation in metallic materials and its relationship to the grain boundary structure, classification and other materials properties.

Book Grain Boundaries and Crystalline Plasticity

Download or read book Grain Boundaries and Crystalline Plasticity written by Louisette Priester and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-02-07 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this book is to put forward the fundamental role of grain boundaries in the plasticity of crystalline materials. To understand this role requires a multi-scale approach to plasticity: starting from the atomic description of a grain boundary and its defects, moving on to the elemental interaction processes between dislocations and grain boundaries, and finally showing how the microscopic phenomena influence the macroscopic behaviors and constitutive laws. It involves bringing together physical, chemical and mechanical studies. The investigated properties are: deformation at low and high temperature, creep, fatigue and rupture.

Book Superplasticity and Grain Boundaries in Ultrafine Grained Materials

Download or read book Superplasticity and Grain Boundaries in Ultrafine Grained Materials written by Peter M. Burgess and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2011-05-31 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superplasticity is a state in which solid crystalline materials, such as some fine-grained metals, are deformed well beyond their usual breaking point. The phenomenon is of importance in processes such as superplastic forming which allows the manufacture of complex, high-quality components in such areas as aerospace and biomedical engineering. Superplasticity and grain boundaries in ultrafine-grained materials discusses a number of problems associated with grain boundaries in metallic polycrystalline materials. The role of grain boundaries in processes such as grain boundary diffusion, relaxation and grain growth is investigated. The authors explore the formation and evolution of the microstructure, texture and ensembles of grain boundaries in materials produced by severe plastic deformation. Written by two leading experts in the field, Superplasticity and grain boundaries in ultrafine-grained materials significantly advances our understanding of this important phenomenon and will be an important reference work for metallurgists and those involved in superplastic forming processes. Discusses significant problems associated with grain boundaries in polycrystals incorporating structural superplasticity and grain boundary sliding Assesses the role of grain boundaries in processes such as grain boundary diffusion, relaxation and grain growth Explores the formation and evolution of the microstructure, texture and ensembles of grain boundaries in materials produced by severe plastic deformation

Book The Nature and Behavior of Grain Boundaries

Download or read book The Nature and Behavior of Grain Boundaries written by Anning Hu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In view of the dramatically increased interest in the study of grain boundaries during the past few years, the Physical Metal lurgy Committee of The Institute of Metals Division of The Metal lurgical Society, AIME, sponsored a four-session symposium on the NATURE AND BEHAVIOR OF GRAIN BOUNDARIES, at the TMS-AIME Fall Meeting in Detroit, Michigan, October 18-19, 1971. The main ob jectives of this symposium were to examine the more recent develop ments, theoretical and experimental, in our understanding of grain boundaries, and to stimulate further studies in these and related areas. This volume contains most of the papers presented at the Symposium. It is regrettable that space limitations allow the inclusion of only four of the unsolicited papers, in addition to thirteen invited papers. The papers are grouped into three sections according to their major content: STRUCTURE OF GRAIN BOUNDARIES, ENERGETICS OF GRAIN BOUNDARIES, and GRAIN BOUNDARY MOTION AND RELATED PHENOMENA. Grain boundaries, or crystal interfaces, have been of both academic and practical interest for many years. An early seminar on "Metal Interfaces" was documented in 1952 by ASM. The Fourth Metallurgical Colloquium held in France, 1960, had a broad coverage on "Properties of Grain Boundaries". More recently the Australian Institute of Metals sponsored a conference on interfaces, with the proceedings being published by Butterworths in 1969.

Book Magnetically and Capillary Driven Grain Boundary Motion in Zinc Bicrystals

Download or read book Magnetically and Capillary Driven Grain Boundary Motion in Zinc Bicrystals written by Christoph Günster and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In der vorliegenden Dissertation wurden neue Erkenntnisse auf dem Gebiet der experimentellen Erforschung der Korngrenzenbewegung vorgestellt. Im Rahmen der Arbeit wurde anhand von in-situ Messungen mittels einer eigens dazu entwickelten Polarisationsmikroskopiesonde mit integriertem Heiztisch die Abhängigkeit der Korngrenzenbeweglichkeit vom Desorientierungs- und Inklinationswinkel der Korngrenze, sowie der Temperatur an speziell gezüchteten Bikristallen aus 99,995% Zink mit symmetrischen und asymmetrischen Kippkorngrenzen und gemischten Korngrenzen im Temperaturbereich zwischen 330°C und 415°C in Hochmagnetfeldern von 10 bis 28 Tesla Stärke als Triebkraft untersucht. Dabei wurde die jeweilige Wanderungsgeschwindigkeit v der Korngrenzen bei verschiedenen Temperaturen und treibenden Kräften gemessen. Aus den so erhaltenen Messdaten wurden die Aktivierungsparameter der Korngrenzenbewegung für die jeweils untersuchte Korngrenze bestimmt.Weiter wurde im Rahmen der Experimente in Hochfeldmagneten gezeigt, dass die Polarisationsmikroskopiesonde zur Bestimmung der Korngrenzenenergie in magnetisch anisotropen Metallen verwendet werden kann. Zu kleinerem Anteil wurden auch Versuche zu krümmungsgetriebener Korngrenzenbewegung durchgeführt. Alle Ergebnisse zeigten eine starke Inklinations- und Desorientierungsabhängigkeit der Korngrenzenbeweglichkeit, wobei für asymmetrische Korngrenzen höhere Aktivierungsparameter ermittelt wurden als für symmetrische. Dies wurde auf Unterschiede zwischen der atomistischen Struktur von asymmetrischen und symmetrischen Korngrenzen zurückgeführt. Weiterhin wurde auch die Auswirkung einer Glühung im Hochmagnetfeld auf Textur- und Mikrostrukturentwicklung von Zinkpolykristallen untersucht, wobei gezeigt wurde, dass das Magnetfeld ein geeignetes Werkzeug zur Beeinflussung der Mikrostruktur in Zink ist.

Book Mechanical Properties and Deformation Behavior of Materials Having Ultra Fine Microstructures

Download or read book Mechanical Properties and Deformation Behavior of Materials Having Ultra Fine Microstructures written by Michael Anthony Nastasi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1993 with total page 646 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the emerging class of new materials characterized by ultra-fine microstrucures. The NATO ASI which produced this book was the first international scientific meeting devoted to a discussion of the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of materials having grain sizes down to a few nanometers. Topics covered include superplasticity, tribology, and the supermodulus effect. Review chapters cover a variety of other themes including synthesis, characterization, thermodynamic stability, and general physical properties. Much of the work is concerned with the issue of how far conventional techniques and concepts can be extended toward atomic scale probing. Another key issue concerns the structure of nanocrystalline materials, in particular, what is the structure and composition of the internal boundaries. These ultra-fine microstructures have proved to challenge even the finest probes that the materials science community has today.
