4 Strengthening mechanisms in metals
A correlation exists between dislocation motion and mechanical behavior of metals. Macroscopic plastic deformation  motion of large #s of dislocations. The ability of a metal to plastically deform depends on the ability of dislocations to move. Limiting the dislocation motion hardness and strength increase greater mechanical forces required to initiate plastic deformation.

5 Strengthening mechanisms in metals
Strengthening principle: restricting or hindering dislocation motion renders a material harder and stronger. Mechanisms for strengthening single phase metals: grain size reduction solid solution alloying strain hardening

6 Strengthening by grain size reduction
A grain boundary poses a barrier to dislocation motion for two reasons: A dislocation moving in grain A to pass into grain B of different orientation will have to change its direction of motion. This is rather difficult. Slip planes are discontinuous from one grain to the other.

7 Strengthening by grain size reduction
Dislocation pile-up

8 Strengthening by grain size reduction
A fine grain material is harder and stronger than one that is coarse grained. Toughness also improves with finer grain. Small-angle grain boundaries are not as effective as large-angle grain boundaries in interfering with dislocation motion.

9 Solid-solution strengthening
Alloys are almost always stronger than their pure metals, because the solute atoms strain the solvent lattice. These strain fields interact with those of the dislocations restricting the dislocation movement.

10 Solid-solution strengthening
Solute atom and its segregation towards dislocations causes reduction of the strain fields. As solute atoms are attached to the dislocations, the resistance to slip is greater since dislocations have to be torn away from them to move.

12 Solid-solution strengthening
Hardness and strength increase with increase of alloy concentration. Ductility usually decreases.

16 Strain hardening (Work hardening)
Cold Work: Mechanical deformation of a metal at relatively low temperatures (below about 1/3 of the melting temperature in K). % C.W. is defined relative to the reduction in cross sectional area of the material.

17 Strain hardening (Work hardening)

18 The fibrous grain structure of a low carbon steel produced by cold working: (a) 10% cold work, (b) 30% cold work, (c) 60% cold work, and (d) 90% cold work (250).

28 Strain hardening Process whereby a metal is plastically deformed, making it harder and stronger. Stress-strain diagram & strain hardening.

29 A material is stressed beyond the yield strength before the stress is removed.

30 Now the material has a higher yield strength and tensile strength but lower ductility.

31 By repeating the procedure, the strength continues to strength and the ductility continues to decrease until the material becomes very brittle.

35 Strain hardening Dislocation multiplication and strain field interactions  dislocation motion is hindered by the presence of other dislocations. As the dislocation density increases, dislocation motion resistance by other dislocations becomes more pronounced.

43 After 3 s at 580°C, new grains appear.

44 After 4 s at 580°C, many more grains appear.

45 8 s at 580°C, complete recrystallization has occurred.

46 1 h at 580°C, substantial grain growth has occurred.

Hot working During hot working, the elongated anisotropic grains immediately recrystallize. If the hot-working temperature is properly controlled, the final hot-worked grain size can be very fine.
