The Suppression of Instabilities via Biphase Interfaces During Bulk Fabrication of Nanograined Zr

“…[62,63] Monolithically rolled Zr develops texture with strong intensities associated with {0001} that are tilted • away from the normal direction (ND) about the rolling direction (RD). [40,64,65] The textures of our Zr-Nb nanolayered composites (Figure 2) clearly exhibit the same predominant features of monolithic rolling textures within normal variation. Moreover, prior modeling studies that calculated the relative contributions of the different deformation modes clearly showed that these Zr and Nb rolling textures are a consequence of dislocation slip.…”

Grain Breakup During Elevated Temperature Deformation of an HCP Metal

“…This is in agreement with the stable orientation identified by Wagner et al in titanium [8,37] and also the observed and simulated textures in hexagonal metals where the 1123 È É 1010 component is stronger than the 1013 È É 1120 ) component. [21,38,39] C. Grain Breakup: Effect of Temperature and Loading Direction EBSD data analysis showed that increasing the temperature causes an increase in intergranular grain misorientation and that compression along the ND causes greater spread in orientations than the compression along the RD (Figure 9). This is slightly counterintuitive, as polycrystalline deformation usually becomes more homogenous as the temperature increases due to dynamic recovery.…”

Grain-structure development in heavily cold-rolled alpha-titanium

“…6d). This effect in heavily rolled titanium has also been reported previously [5,6,21]. Although its origin is not completely clear, it is believed it may be related with prism and pyramidal slip [22].…”
