TL;DR: In this article, a method is presented of in situ measurements of stacking fault densities in shocked face-centred-cubic (FCC) crystals using x-ray diffraction.
Abstract: A method is presented of in situ measurements of stacking fault densities in shocked face-centred-cubic (FCC) crystals using x-ray diffraction. Using results from both the second and fourth diffraction orders, wherein shifts in the Bragg peaks due to faulting are accounted for, we calculated fault densities present in a molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of shocked single crystal of copper. The results are in good quantitative agreement with dislocation density measurements inferred directly from the MD simulation. The x-ray diffraction method thus presents a real possibility for experimental determination in real time of dislocation densities in crystals during shock wave passage.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of laser spot overlap ratio and laser power density on LSP-induced grain refinement were investigated in detail based on the numerical simulations of multiple LSP of copper and CP-Ti.
Abstract: Laser shock peening (LSP) is an innovative surface processing technique. Grain refinement induced by LSP has been proved to be feasible to improve the surface properties of materials and prolong the service life of metallic components. The three-dimensional finite element model, which incorporates a dislocation density-based constitutive model and the temporal-spatial distribution of laser shock wave, was adopted to simulate the process of grain refinement induced by LSP. The predicted dislocation cell sizes, dimple fabrications induced by the repetitive LSP of copper are in good agreement with experimental results, which confirms the validity of the dislocation density-based three-dimensional finite element model. The effects of laser spot overlap ratio and laser power density (peak laser shock wave pressure) on LSP-induced grain refinement were investigated in detail based on the numerical simulations of multiple LSP of copper and CP-Ti.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors exploit existing and new generation ultrabright, ultrafast x-ray sources and large scale molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the real-time physical phenomena that control the dynamic response of materials.
Abstract: Understanding the dynamic lattice response of solids under the extreme conditions of pressure, temperature and strain rate is a scientific quest that spans nearly a century. Critical to developing this understanding is the ability to probe and model the spatial and temporal evolution of the material microstructure and properties at the scale of the relevant physical phenomena—nanometers to micrometers and picoseconds to nanoseconds. While experimental investigations over this range of spatial and temporal scales were unimaginable just a decade ago, new technologies and facilities currently under development and on the horizon have brought these goals within reach for the first time. The equivalent advancements in simulation capabilities now mean that we can conduct simulations and experiments at overlapping temporal and spatial scales. In this article, we describe some of our studies which exploit existing and new generation ultrabright, ultrafast x-ray sources and large scale molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the real-time physical phenomena that control the dynamic response of shocked materials.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the implementation of homogeneous nucleation in dynamic discrete dislocation plasticity (D3P), a planar method of discrete dislocations dynamics (DDD) that offers a complete elastodynamic treatment of plasticity, and put to the test by studying four materials - Al, Fe, Ni, and Mo - that are shock loaded with the same intensity and a strain rate of 10 10 S -1.
Abstract: © 2015 by ASME. Homogeneous nucleation of dislocations is the dominant dislocation generation mechanism at strain rates above 10 8 s -1 ; at those rates, homogeneous nucleation dominates the plastic relaxation of shock waves in the same way that Frank-Read sources control the onset of plastic flow at low strain rates. This article describes the implementation of homogeneous nucleation in dynamic discrete dislocation plasticity (D3P), a planar method of discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) that offers a complete elastodynamic treatment of plasticity. The implemented methodology is put to the test by studying four materials - Al, Fe, Ni, and Mo - that are shock loaded with the same intensity and a strain rate of 10 10 S -1 . It is found that, even for comparable dislocation densities, the lattice shear strength is fundamental in determining the amount of plastic relaxation a material displays when shock loaded.

TL;DR: An improved description of copper and ironcylinder impact (Taylor) test results has been obtained through the use of dislocation-mechanics-based constitutive relations in the Lagrangian material dynamics computer program EPIC•2.
Abstract: An improved description of copper‐ and iron‐cylinder impact (Taylor) test results has been obtained through the use of dislocation‐mechanics‐based constitutive relations in the Lagrangian material dynamics computer program EPIC‐2. The effects of strain hardening, strain‐rate hardening, and thermal softening based on thermal activation analysis have been incorporated into a reasonably accurate constitutive relation for copper. The relation has a relatively simple expression and should be applicable to a wide range of fcc materials. The effect of grain size is included. A relation for iron is also presented. It also has a simple expression and is applicable to other bcc materials but is presently incomplete, since the important effect of deformation twinning in bcc materials is not included. A possible method of acounting for twinning is discussed and will be reported on more fully in future work. A main point made here is that each material structure type (fcc, bcc, hcp) will have its own constitutive beha...

TL;DR: In this paper, a periodic relation between shear stress and atomic shear displacement is assumed to hold along the most highly stressed slip plane emanating from a crack tip, which allows some small slip displacement to occur near the tip in response to small applied loading and, with increase in loading, the incipient dislocation configuration becomes unstable and leads to a fully formed dislocation which is driven away from the crack.
Abstract: Dislocation nucleation from a stressed crack tip is analyzed based on the Peierls concept. A periodic relation between shear stress and atomic shear displacement is assumed to hold along the most highly stressed slip plane emanating from a crack tip. This allows some small slip displacement to occur near the tip in response to small applied loading and, with increase in loading, the incipient dislocation configuration becomes unstable and leads to a fully formed dislocation which is driven away from the crack. An exact solution for the loading at that nucleation instability is developed via the J -integral for the case when the crack and slip planes coincide, and an approximate solution is given when they do not. Solutions are also given for emission of dissociated dislocations, especially partial dislocation pairs in fcc crystals. The level of applied stress intensity factors required for dislocation nucleation is shown to be proportional to √γ us , where γ us , the unstable stacking energy, is a new solid state parameter identified by the analysis. It is the maximum energy encountered in the block-like sliding along a slip plane, in the Burgers vector direction, of one half of a crystal relative to the other. Approximate estimates of γ us are summarized and the results are used to evaluate brittle vs ductile response in fcc and bcc metals in terms of the competition between dislocation nucleation and Griffith cleavage at a crack tip. The predictions seem compatible with known behavior and also show that in many cases solids which are predicted to first cleave under pure mode I loading should instead first emit dislocations when that loading includes very small amounts of mode II and III shear. The analysis in this paper also reveals a feature of the near-tip slip distribution corresponding to the saddle point energy configuration for cracks that are loaded below the nucleation threshold, as is of interest for thermal activation.
