TA15钛合金中纳米压痕附近残余应力-应变场及几何必须位错密度的分布

摘要

Nanoindentation and high resolution electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) were combined to examine the elastic modulus and hardness of α and β phases,anisotropy in residual elastic stress-strain fields and distributions of geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density around the indentations within TA15 titanium alloy.The nano-indention tests were conducted on α and β phases,respectively.The residual stress-strain fields surrounding the indentation were calculated through crosscorrelation method from recorded patterns.The GND density distribution around the indentation was calculated based on the strain gradient theories to reveal the micro-mechanism of plastic deformation.The results indicate that the elastic modulus and hardness for a.phase are 129.05 GPas and 6.44 GPa,while for β phase,their values are 109.80 GPa and 4.29 GPa,respectively.The residual Mises stress distribution around the indentation is relatively heterogeneous and significantly influenced by neighboring soft β phase.The region with low residual stress around the indentation is accompanied with markedly high type and prismatic-GND density.%结合纳米压痕及高分辨电子背散射衍射技术(EBSD)测定了TA15钛合金中α及β相的弹性模量和纳米硬度,揭示了纳米压痕附近应力-应变场及几何必须位错(GND)密度的非均匀分布情况.利用高分辨EBSD测试过程中同步保存的背散射电子衍射花样,并基于cross-correlation的处理方法,计算得出了纳米压痕附近区域的残余弹性应力-应变场分布.结合应变梯度场理论,计算分析了纳米压痕附近区域的几何必须位错密度分布,进而对合金的微观塑性变形机制进行了讨论与分析.结果表明,α相的弹性模量及纳米硬度分别为129.05 GPa和6.44GPa,而β相的相应值为109.80 GPa和4.29 GPa.纳米压痕附近区域的残余Mises应力呈现明显的非均匀分布并受到相邻较软β相的显著影响.压痕附近的低残余应力区域伴随有显著较高的<α>形和柱面型几何必须位错密度分布.
