Dislocations Today's objective – how to make these guys work harder
Work hardening So what happened (coat hanger)? Dislocations moved when coat hanger bent Dislocation generators produced large amounts of new dislocations New dislocations so numerous that they entangled & had difficulty moving
Work hardening plate sheet extremely hard - need backup rolls to keep work rolls from deforming So….cheap, convenient way to strengthen mat'ls On the other hand, work hardening can be problem Example: cold rolling plate to sheet harder!! too hard to continue rolling harder fairly soft
Dislocation interactions With each other: annihilate entangle form generators With grain boundaries: disappear pileups Thus, small grained mat'ls stronger cuz more grain bdy area, ––> more pileups
Dislocation interactions With tiny precipitate particles Why don't dislocs move thru precipitates? a. complex structure - poorly defined slip planes and/or b. slip planes wrongly oriented
Solid solution strengthening Solute atoms different size than solvent atoms Crystal structure distorted – slip planes less well-defined Disloc movement restricted Cu solid solutions
Strengthening methods - summary Work hardening Solution hardening Precipitation hardening Grain size reduction
Dislocations Oh, yeah….one more thing about dislocs Ease of disloc motion depends on slip plane orientation
Dislocations Slip occurs only as a result of shear & only along slip plane in a slip direction The greater the no. of slip systems, the greater the probability some slip plane & slip direction correctly oriented
Dislocations "bcc" - 12 slip systems Slip system = slip plane + slip direction ccp - 12 slip systems hcp - 3 slip systems
Assignments for next class: 1. review today's classnotes a. work hardening b. dislocation tangles c. precipitation hardening d. solution hardening e. grain boundary pileups f. slip systems and critical resolved shear stress 2. Exam comments
