Activation parameters for deformation of ultrafine-grained aluminium as determined by indentation strain rate jumps at elevated temperature

TLDR
In this paper, the hardness and strain rate sensitivity of ultrafine-grained (UFG) aluminium were examined as a function of temperature using in situ strain rate jump indentation in a SEM at temperatures up to 250 °C.
Abstract
The hardness and strain rate sensitivity of ultrafine-grained (UFG) aluminium was examined as a function of temperature using in situ strain rate jump indentation in a SEM at temperatures up to 250 °C. Measured strain rate sensitivities were in good agreement with earlier bulk compression measurements. Activation energies and volumes for deformation were extracted and discussed. Transitions in the deformation mechanism are observed at lower temperatures for smaller grain sizes.

Nanocrystalline High-Entropy Alloys: A New Paradigm in High-Temperature Strength and Stability

TL;DR: It is shown that a nanocrystalline high-entropy alloy (HEA) retains an extraordinarily high yield strength over 5 GPa up to 600 °C, 1 order of magnitude higher than that of its coarse-grained form and 5 times higher thanThat of its single-crystalline equivalent.

Dynamic nanoindentation testing for studying thermally activated processes from single to nanocrystalline metals

TL;DR: In this article, a small overview is given on thermally activated dislocation mechanism and how indentation data from pointed indenters can be interpreted in terms of uniaxial macroscopic testing, which requires the use of the indentation strain rate as introduced by Lucas and Oliver as well as the concepts of Taylor hardening together with Johnson expanding cavity model.
