CHAPTER 7: DISLOCATIONS AND STRENGTHENING EDGE DISLOCATIONS

SCREW DISLOCATIONS

CHARACTERISTICS OF DISLOCATIONS

SLIP SYSTEMS

SLIP IN SINGLE CRYSTALS Resolved Shear Stress

Example Problem Consider a single crystal of BCC iron oriented such that a tensile stress is applied along [010] direction. Compute the resolved shear stress along a (110) plane and in a [ 11] direction when a tensile stress of 52 MPa is applied

COLD WORKING

New crystals are formed that: --have a small disl. density --are small --consume cold-worked crystals. 33% cold worked brass New crystals nucleate after 3 sec. at 580C. Fig (a),(b), Callister 6e. (Fig (a),(b) are courtesy of J.E. Burke, General Electric Company.) 0.6 mm RECRYSTALLIZATION

All cold-worked crystals are consumed. After 4 seconds After 8 seconds Fig (c),(d), Callister 6e. (Fig (c),(d) are courtesy of J.E. Burke, General Electric Company.) 0.6 mm FURTHER RECRYSTALLIZATION
