Chapter 7 - Dislocations Flashcards

1
Q

what is the difference between a edge and a screw dislocation?

A

Edge: dislocation line moves in the direction of the applied shear stress

Screw: dislocation line is perpendicular to the stress direction

Q

do dislocations tend to happen in polymers?

A

no, therefore slip is brittle failure is more likely then slip

Q

why do ceramics fail brittley rather than by dislocation slip?

A

In ceramics, it is most likely to fail because of flaws rather than sufficient stress to cause dislocation movement.

Q

what does the formula 𝜏R = F’/A’?

A

Q

What is this formula: 𝜏R = σ * cos(λ) * cos(φ)?

A

𝜏R: Resolved shear stress
σ (sigma): Applied tensile stress (F / A)
λ (lambda): Angle between the force direction and slip direction
φ (phi): Angle between the normal to the slip plane and the tensile force direction

17
Q

When is resolved shear stress at its maximum

A

when phi and lambda is at 45 degrees

18
Q

what is slip?

A

a small fraction of the metallic bonds across the interface needs to be a broker at a time.

19
Q

does increasing dislocation mobility increase or decrease the strength

20
Q

does reducing grain size increase or decrease dislocation motion?

A

it decreases

21
Q

what is this formula: σyield = σ0 +ky d^-1/2

A

σyield: This represents the yield stress of the material. It is the stress at which the material begins to deform plastically.

σ0: This is the intrinsic yield strength of the material, which is the yield strength in the absence of any grain boundaries.

ky: constant given

d: This represents the average diameter of grain

22
Q

What is this formula: d^n - d0^n = K * t?

A

d: Average grain size after heat treatment
d0: Initial average grain diameter before heat treatment
n: Exponent, typically around 2
K: Material constant (depends on temperature, T, but independent of time, t)
t: Heat treating time

23
Q

what is solid solution strengthening, and what does it do to dislocation motion?

A

it introduces impurity atoms that distort the lattice, and act as barrier to dislocation motion

24
Q

what is strain hardening?

A

plastically defomring metals at room temp, makes them harder and stronger. while introducing dislocations.

25
what is heat treating?
warming up cold worked metals to bring back their ductile properties
