ABSTRACTIn the present study, the strengthening effect of nano-scale twins in body-centered cubic (bcc) crystal was evaluated using micro-sized cantilever type specimen which contained the nanotwinned region (midrib) in ferrous lenticular martensite. The SEM observations of the micro-sized specimen after bending deformation indicated that midrib can act as barriers against dislocations, resulting in slip localization and non-localization across midrib. The load-displacement curve obtained by bending test showed that twin boundaries significantly enhance the critical resolved shear stress of bcc.

Recent observations relating to the critical resolved shear stress for slip in tantalum and tungsten are reported. The results of tensile and compressive deformation are discussed in terms of the operative slip systems and the possible asymmetry of {112} [Formula: see text] slip. It is concluded that the asymmetry hypothesis is unable to account satisfactorily for anomalies in the deformation behavior of these materials.

Interaction of migrating {101¯2} twin boundary with obstacles was analyzed by atomistic and finite elements computer simulations of magnesium. Two types of obstacles were considered: one is a non-shearable obstacle and another one is the void inside bulk material. It is shown that both types of obstacles inhibit twin growth and increased stress is necessary to engulf the obstacle in both cases. However, the increase of critical resolved shear stress is higher for the passage of the twin boundary through raw of voids than for interaction with non-shearable obstacles.

This study deals with the numerical estimation of the fatigue life represented in the form of strength-life (S-N, or Wöhler) curves of metals with different crystallographic structures, namely body-centered cubic (BCC) and face-centered cubic (FCC). Their life curves are determined by analyzing the initiation of a short crack under the influence of microstructure and subsequent growth of the long crack, respectively. Micro-models containing microstructures of the materials are set up by using the finite element method (FEM) and are applied in combination with the Tanaka-Mura (TM) equation in order to estimate the number of cycles required for the crack initiation. The long crack growth analysis is conducted using the Paris law. The study shows that the crystallographic structure is not the predominant factor that determines the shape and position of the fatigue life curve in the S-N diagram, but it is rather the material parameter known as the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS). Even though it is an FCC material, the investigated austenitic stainless steel AISI 304 shows an untypically high fatigue limit (208 MPa), which is higher than the fatigue limit of the BCC vanadium-based micro-alloyed forging steel AISI 1141 (152 MPa).
