Plastic deformation

• deformation which remains after load is removed

• atomic rearrangements (change of neighbors)

Elastic deformation

• after the load is removed, no deformation remains

• no rearrangements in the atomic order

Plastic deformation of crystals does not change the lattice structure.

Plastic deformation – slip of dislocations

Slip plane

Deformation of crystals occurs by slip of lattice planes, motion of

dislocations

Plastic deformation

Plastic deformation – slip system

Slip system: slip plane + slip direction

Slip system is characterized by:

• slip plane normal

• slip direction, slip vector (a lattice vector in the slip direction)

often: slip planes are most densely packed lattice planes

slip directions are most densely packed lattice directions

Plastic deformation

Reaction of dislocations

Meeting of two dislocation:

Sum of the their vectors

annihilation

Plastic deformation

Cottrel-Lommer junction

Two dislocations combine (two different

slip planes), and the plain of the resulting

dislocation is not a slip plane.

This immobile dislocation will act as a

barrier for other dislocations

Only one slip system is active.

The necessary shear stress for the deformation increases only slightly.

Deformation in macroscopic scale:

• A lot of dislocation is necessary.

• 1 dislocation causes a displacement of b.

If b = 2·10-8 m then for the displacement of 1 mm:

dislocation are necessary.

There are not so many dislocation in the material at the beginning.

How are they generated?

Stage I.


Frank-Read sources


Frank-Read sources

Simulation of frank-read source


Stage II.

More and more dislocations are generated,

the shear stress is increasing.

The crystal starts to rotate in a more favorable position:

slip occurs on two or more slip system

The dislocation are not evenly distributed.


Stage II.

Dislocation on two or more slip system.

Cottrel-Lommer junction:(The combination of two dislocations is not on a

slip plane.)

1. This immobile dislocation will act as

a barrier for other dislocations.

2. For further deformation new slip

systems become active.

3. Increase of the shear stress


Stage III. Cross slip of dislocations.

The dislocation are piled up behind the immobile ones.

The stress is high enough for the screw dislocation to

bypass the immobile dislocation, and continue on a

neighboring slip plane.

Screw dislocations are more

mobile, they are not bounded

to only one slip plane

Deformation of polycrystalline materials

Polycrystalline material consist differently

oriented crystals.

During the deformation the continuity of the body

remains. Grain boundaries do not rip apart, rather

they remain together during deformation.

Each grain’s shape is formed by the shape

of its adjacent neighbors

There are more active slip systems in

each grains (min. 5)

The stress increase is always

more intensive in polycrystalline

Deformation of polycrystalline materials

Alteration of the grain structure of a polycrystalline metal as a result of plastic deformation.

(a) Before deformation the

grains are equiaxed.(b) The deformation has

produced elongated grains.

𝜀𝑚𝑎𝑐𝑟𝑜 = 𝜀𝑐𝑟𝑦𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑠

Macroscopic and microscopic deformation

The macroscopic deformation

(deformation of the body) is the

average of the crystals’

deformation

Texture of polycrystalline materials

> deformation textures

> recrystallization textures

> vapor deposition textures

The texture is the distribution of crystals’

orientations of a polycrystalline material.

No texture: the orientations are fully random.

Texture: some orientation are

more preferred than others

weak, moderate or strong texture

Almost all produced material have texture, and can have

a great influence on material properties.

Origin of the texture:

• Deformation texture (sheets, wires)

• Texture originates from crystallization, or recrystallization (casting, heat treatment...)

• Vapor depositions (PVD, CVD, …)

No texture: isotropic material direction independent properties

Texture: anisotropic material direction dependent properties


Evolution of deformation textures

Because of the constrained deformation (neighboring crystals) of a crystal minimum 5

active slip system is necessary.

The number of active slip systems depends on the position of the crystal. e.g.

bcc crystal: 5 - 12 (maximum)

The less active slip system is necessary for the deformation the more preferred is the

position of the crystal.

Crystallographic slip results in lattice rotations relative to the external axes of a body.

Representation of Texture

Pole figures and orientation distribution function

Describe the orientations in 3D space of thousands or millions

of individual grains. There ate two important tools:

• the pole figure, based on the stereographic projection.

• the Orientation Distribution Function (ODF), based on

the three Euler angles

Stereographic projection, pole figures

The unit cube is in the origin of the coordinate

systems and surrounded by the unit sphere.

1. To represent the cube faces:

2. intersection of the normal vector of each

cube face with the surface of the unit

sphere.

3. Only the intersections (1, 2, 3) on the

northern hemisphere are taken into account.

4. Connecting the points of intersection with

the south pole yields the intersecting points

(1', 2', 3') in the equatorial plane.

5. Poles of the respective cube faces.

Anisotropy

Isotropy: properties are independent of the direction of measurement

Anisotropy: directionality of properties

The physical properties of single crystals depend on the crystallographic

direction in which measurements are taken.

e.g.: the elastic modulus, the electrical conductivity, the index of

refraction may have different values in the [100] and [111] directions

The anisotropy is associated with the variance of atomic or ionic spacing

with crystallographic direction.

Anisotropy in single crystals

The extent of anisotropic effects in crystalline materials are functions of

the symmetry of the crystal structure:

the degree of anisotropy increases with decreasing structural symmetry

e.g.: triclinic structures normally are highly anisotropic

Certain properties contributes stronger in the macroscopical

ones.
