Rs. Mishra et Ak. Mukherjee, THE RATE CONTROLLING DEFORMATION MECHANISM IN HIGH-STRAIN RATE SUPERPLASTICITY, Materials science & engineering. A, Structural materials: properties, microstructure and processing, 234, 1997, pp. 1023-1025
An analysis of high strain rate superplasticity data shows a change in
activation energy with particle size. The result is explained on the
basis of change of rate controlling mechanism with second phase partic
les. The prediction of diffusional relaxation models agrees well with
the experimental results. The temperature for onset of high strain rat
e superplasticity in mechanically alloyed aluminum and nickel base all
oys can also be predicted by diffusional relaxation models. These conc
epts can be used to construct a superplastic mechanism map. (C) 1997 E
