Deformation mechanisms of a fully lamellar TiAl (γ lamellae: 100 ~ 300Ênm thick, α2 lamellae: 10 ~ 50 nm thick) crept at 760¡C have been investigated. It was found that, as a result of a fine structure, the motion and multiplication of dislocations within both γ and α2 lamellae are limited at low creep stresses (< 400 MPa). Thus, the glide and climb of lattice dislocations have insignificant co...

A new computer simulation method based on stochastic integration of the Langevin equations of dislocation motion is proposed for the investigation of the dynamic properties of a system of parallel straight dislocations. The stochastic approach developed for weakly correlated dislocation systems allows for more than 106 dislocations in the simulation area. Relaxation of a system of 220 parallel ...

Abstract: powerful method for the characterization of microstructures of crystalline materials in terms of crystallite size anddislocation structures. In this paper the effect of the sliding on the microstructure of A356 in the as-cast and heattreated conditions are studied, The X-ray phase analysis shows that with increasing applied load, the dislocationdensity is increased, whereas the crysta...
