• Plastic Deformations
– Net movement of large number of atoms in
response to an applied stress
– Massive amount of dislocations
– Causes of “slips”
• Dislocations
– Defects contained in crystalline materials (mostly
metals and alloys) that are results of solidification,
plastic deformation and as a consequence of
thermal stress that results from rapid cooling
– Edge, screw and mixed dislocation

materials expressed as total dislocation length per

Strengthening
• Grain size reduction

– Average grain size mechanical properties
– Mainly affects how dislocations “pile up” or are
“impeded”
Strengthening

– Grain boundary
• Acts as a barrier for two reasons
1. Grains having different orientations (angular) changes its
direction of motion and crystallographic misorientation
increases
2. Result in discontinuity of slip planes from one grain to the
other

– It can be regulated by the following:
• Rate of solidification from liquid phase
• Plastic deformation followed by appropriate heat
treatment
• *Plastic deformation (compression)
*applicable only for some materials
Strengthening
• Solid-solution strengthening (alloying)

– Alloying with impurity atoms that either substitute
or interstice solid solution
– Increasing the concentration of impurity to
improve a “base” material’s strength

Failure of Materials
Fundamentals of Failure
• Fracture
• Ductile Fracture
– Most common type of tensile fracture
– Shear deformation at an angle of 45°
– Fractographic studies (SEM)
• Brittle Fracture
– Takes place without significant deformation
– Rapid crack propagation
– Crack propagation corresponds to successive and
repeated breaking of atomic bonds
– Perpendicular to the direction of the applied
tensile stress
– V-shaped “chevron” markings
– Radial fan-shaped ridges (origin of crack)
– Very hard and fine-grained metals will have no
discernible fracture pattern
– Amorphous materials yield shiny and smooth
surface
– Transgranular fracture
– Intergranular fracture
Fracture Mechanics
• Quantifies relationships between:

– Material properties
– Stress level
– Presence of crack-producing flaws
– Crack propagation mechanisms
Fracture Mechanics
• Stress concentration
– “stress raiser”
– Presence of microscopic flaws- cracks that always
exist under normal conditions at the surface
and/or within the interior of a body of material
– Any discontinuity or change of section, scratches,
holes, notches, bends, tool markings or grooves
(or any equivalent to a sudden change of section)

– Example: Maximum flaw length computation
A relatively large plate of a glass is subjected to a
tensile stress of 40MPa. If the specific surface
energy and modulus of elasticity for this glass are
0.3 J/m2 and 69GPa, respectively, determine the
maximum length of a surface flaw that is possible
without fracture.

Failure modes
• Fatigue
– Form of failure that occurs in structures subjected
to dynamic and fluctuating stresses
– Possible for failure to occur at stresses lower than
tensile or yield strength for static load
– Normally occurs after a lengthy period of repeated
stress or strain cycling
– Estimated to be cause of approximately 90% of all
metallic failures
– Characterized by cyclic stress
