AbstractA technique of repeated stress relaxations is used to characterise the strain hardening rate (K) and the mobile dislocation density (ρm) in the flow strength anomaly domain of Ni3(Al,Hf) single crystals. It is shown that there is no independent means for measuring both effects but that reasonable assumptions about the strain hardening rate lead to determine the variation of ρm during relaxation. Preliminary results indicate that during relaxation ρm decreases more rapidly with strain (stress) when the temperature is raised.

AbstractThe deformation and fracture behaviors of two directionally solidified multi-phase Ni-Fe-Al ordered alloys were investigated. One alloy consisted of continuous β+γ lamellae with fine γ precipitates within the γ phase. The NiAl-based β phase of this alloy exhibited <100> slip even when deformed parallel to the [001] growth direction. This material exhibited an initiation fracture toughness of ∼ 30 MPa √m and tensile ductility of 10%. The second alloy consisted of aligned but discontinuous γ lamellae within a continuous β phase. Again, the γ phase contained γ precipitates, but unlike the previous alloy, the β phase also contained a fine dispersion of bcc precipitates due to spinodal decomposition. The β phase of this alloy deformed by <111> slip. This four-phase alloy exhibited a fracture toughness of ∼ 21 MPa √m and tensile ductility of 2%. Observations of the plastic zone in both alloys indicated significant plasticity in the β phase due to easy slip transfer from the ductile second phase. The enhanced fracture resistance of these multiphase materials compared to single phase β alloys is attributed in large part to intrinsic toughening of the β phase by an increased mobile dislocation density due to efficient dislocation generation from the β/γ interfaces.
