Characterisation of the strain rate sensitivity of basal, prismatic and pyramidal slip in Zircaloy-4 using micropillar compression
Ning Fang, Yang Liu, Finn Giuliani +1
The slip strength of individual slip systems at different strain rates will control the mechanical response and strongly influence the anisotropy of plastic deformation. In this wo…
Casting voids in nickel superalloy and the mechanical behaviour under room temperature tensile deformation
Zhuocheng Xu, Ben Britton, Yi Guo
The microstructure of a second-generation nickel base superalloy is studied using X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The as-cast material conta…
Development of local plasticity around voids during tensile deformation
Yi Guo, Cui Zong, Ben Britton
Voids can limit the life of engineering components. This motivates us to understand local plasticity around voids in a nickel base superalloy combining experiments and simulations.…
Understanding plasticity in zirconium using in-situ measurement of lattice rotations
Vivian Tong, Euan Wielewski, Ben Britton
Understanding deformation in polycrystalline metals is critical to use them in high-value high-risk applications. We present in-situ characterisation of plastic deformation of zirc…
Characterisation of slip and twinning in high rate deformed zirconium with electron backscatter diffraction
Vivian Tong, Euan Wielewski, Ben Britton
Zirconium alloys are used in the nuclear industry as structural materials, and can be subject to high strain rate loading conditions during forming and in the case of a reactor acc…
