The effect of small deformation on abnormal grain growth in bulk Cu
|
The effect of small deformation below the level (about 8 pct) required for primary recrystallization on abnormal grain growth (secondary recrystallization) has been investigated in bulk polycrystalline Cu. The starting microstructure, without any texture and with a nearly uniform grain size of 168 (mu)m, has been obtained by compressing a cylindrical Cu specimen and recrystallizing at 800 deg C. The fully recrystallized specimen shows distinct abnormal grain growth (AGG) after heat treatment ...

Analysis of Intergranular Impurity Concentration and the Effects on the Ductility of Copper-Shaped Charge Jets
Metallurgical and Materials Transactions
; Shaped charge liners (SCLs) are thin-walled metallic cones that are explosively driven to high pressures and strain rates. From a metallurgical point of view, the SCLs provide an excellent experimental test bed to evaluate the influence of microstructure on high strain rate deformation and failure.

Kinetics of the [gamma] [arrow right] [epsilon] Martensitic Transformation in Fine-Grained Fe-26Mn-0.14C Austenitic Steel
Metallurgical and Materials Transactions
; A high-Mn Fe-26Mn-0.14C austenitic steel was hot deformed at 900 C, 1000 C, and 1100 C with the strain rate of 5 s^sup -1^ followed by air cooling (AC) or water quenching (WQ). Deformation at 1100 C results in the occurrence of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) that produces a fine grain size (~10

Charpy-Impact-Toughness Prediction using an "Effective" Grain Size for Thermomechanically Controlled Rolled Microalloyed Steels
Metallurgical and Materials Transactions
; Thermomechanically controlled rolling of steel plate can involve substantial straining in the intercritical temperature region, which may result in the final ferrite grains not fully recrystallizing, and, hence, the presence of low-angle grain boundaries. It is shown in this article that a
