TL;DR: A review of techniques and experimental data on the effect of high strain rates on plastic and rupture behavior of metals and alloys at elevated temperatures is presented in this article, where it is shown that recovery effects explain qualitatively the results obtained.
Abstract: Testing techniques employed in determining the elastic moduli, i.e., Young's modulus, shear modulus, and Poisson's ratio, at room and elevated temperatures are described. The techniques depend on static or dynamic measurements. A comparison and an analysis of test results determined by the methods are presented. The effect of composition, grain size, and various transformations on the elastic moduli or their temperature dependence is discussed. A review of techniques and experimental data on the effect of high strain rates on plastic and rupture behavior of metals and alloys at elevated temperatures is presented. It is shown that recovery effects explain qualitatively the results obtained. A brief description of the various stages of recovery is presented. The variation of hardness with temperature is discussed for pure metals and alloys, including a description of a typical hot-hardness tester. The relationship between hardness and tensile strength, creep, and creep- rupture behavior is summarized. The use of the hot-hardness tester as a research tool for following solid-state reactions at elevated temperatures is discussed. The reactions may depend on temperature, time, or plastic strain, or a combination of these. (auth)

TL;DR: In this article, a technique for determining compressive stress-strain curves well into the plastic range of relatively soft metals at strain rates from 300 to 2000 sec−1 at six temperatures from 30 to 550° C was presented.
Abstract: This paper presents and experimental technique for determining compressive stress-strain curves well into the plastic range of relatively soft metals at strain rates from 300 to 2000 sec−1 at six temperatures from 30 to 550° C. More than 100 curves were obtained on annealed 1100° F aluminum. The strain-rate dependence in these tests could be fitted quite well either by a power function (log-log plot) or by a semilogarithmic plot, but the power function gave a better correlation of the present data with that obtained at lower strain rates by Alder and Phillips.1

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined dynamic elastic properties and damping properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy at room temperature to 673 K. They suggested that these properties at elevated temperatures were influenced by the occurrence of grain boundary sliding, which is dependent on the grain size and alloy additions.

TL;DR: In this article, transmission electron microscopic observations showed that the density of dislocations within subgrains and the subgrain diameter vary with applied stress according to: ϱD∝σAK,D ∝ σA−0.8, where K=1.4 to 2.0.
Abstract: Specimens of 304 stainless steel subjected to different thermomechanical histories develop different internal stresses, σi, and different substructures. Creep rate is uniquely related not to the applied stress, σA, but to the effective stress, σ*=(σA−σi). Values of σ* are determined from experimental results and σi calculated from σi=(σA−σ*). Results show σi increases with the applied stress according to σi∝σA1.7. Transmission electron microscopic observations show that the density of dislocations within subgrains, ϱD, and the subgrain diameter,D, vary with applied stress according to: ϱD∝σAK,D ∝ σA−0.8, whereK=1.4 to 2.0. Subgrain misorientation is independent of creep stress, strain, or temperature. The contributions of these structural variables to the internal stress are discussed.

TL;DR: Pipe diffusion can be important in a number of creep mechanisms, including diffusional, grain boundary sliding and slip creep as mentioned in this paper, and is predicted to be especially important for the creep of fine-grained materials at intermediate stresses and temperatures.
