dc.description.abstract | Dislocation substructures have been extensively characterized to explain the origin of strain hardening. Regions of high dislocation densities (walls) constrain the glide of mobile dislocations in regions of lower dislocation density (channels). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) has shown that the distance in between walls is inversely proportional to flow stress, which is often referred as to the similitude principle. However, it still remains unclear whether a similitude scaling law exists for the dislocation wall thickness or wall fraction. The understanding of such a scaling law is instrumental to support substructure-based crystal plasticity, validate dislocation dynamics models, and explain substructure formation processes. Hence, this work surveys TEM images from various FCC metallic materials under cyclic deformation at various temperatures to assess the existence of the similitude principle for dislocation walls. The results demonstrate that the wall thickness does follow similitude, but the proportionality constant depends on the temperature for some structures. | en_UK |
