Dislocation versus grain boundary strengthening in SPD processed metals: Non-causal relation between grain size and strength of deformed polycrystals

Abstract: In metals that are heavily cold deformed, for instance by a severe plastic deformation process, significant strengthening is caused by the high density of defects such as grain boundaries and dislocations. In this work a model for volume-averaged dislocation and grain boundary (GB) creation is used to show that unless significant annihilation of defects post deformation occurs, the dislocation densities and GB densities in the deformed material are closely correlated. The dislocation strengthening effect thus … Show more

“…where α is a numerical factor, G is the shear modulus, b is the Burgers vector, and ρ is the dislocation density. Assuming a linear function between the dislocation and grain size strengthenings [38][39][40] and taking α = 0.7 [41], G = 81,000 MPa, and b =2.6 × 10 −10 m [20], the dislocation density in the present samples after hot compression can be evaluated varying from 3 × 10 13 m −2 to 8 × 10 13 m −2 . Note, these values are close to those measured in an austenitic stainless steel after hot working under similar conditions [42].…”

“…The trouble with this approach is that the dislocation density is hard to be measured accurately. Recently, the dislocation density in cold worked metals and alloys has been shown to correlate with the density of grain boundaries, leading to a linear dependence between the dislocation strengthening and the grain size strengthening [59]. Thus, the strengthening by cold working can be evaluated by using either dislocation density or grain size.…”

“…In other words, the absorbed internal energy of the specimen mainly contributes to the grain deformation (slipping and twining). With the increasing grain number per unit volume, the increasing grain boundary strengthening [26,27] and strong dislocation density [12,28] are obtained to enhance the deformation resistance, and this ultimately leads to an intensified energy consumption. Therefore, there is a certain relationship between E and the grain number per unit volume.…”
