摘要:

研究了Al 4 wt.通过位错动力学模拟确定了含有均匀分布的$θ''$析出相的Cu合金。通过透射电镜观察,获得了合金中析出相的尺寸分布、形状、取向和体积分数,并研究了控制位错/析出相相互作用的参数(弹性失配、相变应变、位错迁移率和交叉滑移几率等)。都是通过原子模拟计算出来的沉淀物被假定为是不可穿透的或可被位错剪切的,后者的特征在于必须克服以剪切沉淀物的阈值剪切应力。的临界解析剪切应力和位错/沉淀相互作用机制的模拟预测与实验结果吻合良好。得出的结论是,该合金的最佳强度是通过均匀分布的$θ''$沉淀物获得的,该沉淀物的平均尺寸($\approx$ 40 nm)处于沉淀物剪切和成环之间的过渡处。总之,本文提出的位错动力学策略能够提供金属合金中沉淀强化的定量预测。

英文摘要:

The critical resolved shear stress of an Al 4 wt. \% Cu alloy containing a homogeneous distribution of $θ''$ precipitates was determined by means of dislocation dynamics simulations. The size distribution, shape, orientation and volume fraction of the precipitates in the alloy were obtained from transmission electron microscopy observations while the parameters controlling the dislocation/precipitate interactions (elastic mismatch, transformation strains, dislocation mobility and cross-slip probability, etc.) were calculated from atomistic simulations. The precipitates were assumed to be either impenetrable or shearable by the dislocations, the latter characterized by a threshold shear stress that has to be overcome to shear the precipitate. The predictions of the simulations in terms of the critical resolved shear stress and of the dislocation/precipitate interaction mechanisms were in good agreement with the experimental results. It was concluded that the optimum strength of this alloy is attained with a homogeneous distribution of $θ''$ precipitates whose average size ($\approx$ 40 nm) is at the transition between precipitate shearing and looping. Overall, the dislocation dynamics strategy presented in this paper is able to provide quantitative predictions of precipitate strengthening in metallic alloys.
