Learn about how certain obstacles impede the motion of dislocations, such as very hard carbides that dislocations must bow around, creating a stronger material. Understand friction hardening and the forces between loops and dislocations. Discover the effects of long-range and short-range obstacles.

NEEP 541 – Hardening II Fall 2002 Jake Blanchard
Outline • Hardening
Hardening by Impenetrable Obstacles • Some barriers cannot be cut by a dislocation • Precipitation hardening creates very hard carbides that connot be sheared • The dislocation must bow around them
Loop Hardening • Forces between loops and edge dislocations can impede motion of a dislocation • As before: • Experiments indicate:
Summary • Source Hardening – increase stress to start Frank-Read source • Friction hardening – increase stress required to move dislocations • Long range – forces from other dislocations • Short range - obstacles
Summary • Short range – obstacles • Depleted zones • Impenetrable obstacles • loops
