THE DIFFUSION IN FCC BINARY INTERSTITIAL ALLOY

We build the theory of diffusion for FCC binary interstitial alloy under pressure based on the statistical moment method, where there are the analytic expressions of the jumping frequency of interstitial atom, the effective jumping length, the correlation factor, the diffusion coefficient, and the activated energy. In limit cases, we can obtain the diffusion theory for FCC metal A under pressure.

On the Study of Cyclic Crystal Plasticity Ratchetting Constitutive Model for Polycrystalline Pure Copper

With the hypothesis of a small deformation, the novel cyclic visco-plasticity constitutive model (CV-CM) is constructed to study the cyclic deformation responses of polycrystalline metals. In this model, a modified Armstrong–Frederick nonlinear kinematic hardening (NKH) law is adopted to simulate the ratchetting deformation more precisely. The cyclic hardening characteristic of FCC polycrystalline copper is investigated with the use of flow stress evolution of slip system. For the issue of the transition from single crystal to polycrystalline crystals, the explicit [Formula: see text] rule is introduced to compute the polycrystalline response. Finally, through comparison with the experimental data, the proposed model is verified. It is demonstrated that the uniaxial ratchetting response of FCC metal can be precisely captured. The ratchetting response of copper single crystal and its relation with the crystallographic directions can be exactly traced by the present model as well.
