Grain-Size Dependency of Low-Temperature Creep in Ultrafine-Grained Aluminum

Article Preview

Abstract:

The grain size dependence of creep behavior from coarse grain to ultrafine grain regions was examined using fully-annealed specimens fabricated from a single process route. For coarse-grained sample, in tensile deformation, stress-strain curves show slow work hardening, and the proof stress shows typical Hall-Petch behavior. On the other hand, creep behavior is observed under the stress above the proof stress, and the creep rate has no grain size dependence. For ultrafine-grained sample, in the tensile deformation, stress-strain curves show yielding behavior, and the yield stress shows Hall-Petch behavior also. On the other hand, creep behavior was observed below the proof stress, but the creep rate decreases with a decrease in grain size.
