Studies in Deformation and Fracture.
Abstract
The effects of crystallite orientation upon the formation of deformation bands in alpha- iron are determined, along with the influence of crystallite orientation and size upon strength of polycrystalline iron. The application of thermomechanical processing methods to semicrystalline polymers produces marked strengthening in bulk nylon 6/6, and several modes of fracture are related to the thermal and mechanical history. Attempts to form aluminum-alumina composites by deformation processing procedures do not prove feasible. Geometrical problems and those associated with thermal expansion and residual stresses are the major sources of difficulty. (Author-PL)
