Abstract

In this study, a miniaturized cruciform-shaped sample geometry which allows reaching high plastic strain under equibiaxial loading with reduced thickness at the test section is presented. The thinning method results in excellent surface quality that can be used for electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and high-resolution digital image correlation (HRDIC) investigations. The new cruciform geometry is used to study the slip activity in metastable austenitic stainless steel 304 during uniaxial and equibiaxial deformation using HRDIC. The results are discussed with respect to the Schmid law and the effect of multiple slip activity on the nucleation of martensitic transformations.

Deformation (physics)

In physics and continuum mechanics, deformation is the transformation of a body from a reference configuration to a current configuration. A configuration is a set containing the positions of all particles of the body. A deformation can occur because of external loads, intrinsic activity (e.g. muscle contraction), body forces (such as gravity or electromagnetic forces), or changes in temperature, moisture content, or chemical reactions, etc. Strain is related to deformation in terms of relative displacement of particles in the body that excludes rigid-body motions.

Plasticity (physics)

In physics and materials science, plasticity (also known as plastic deformation) is the ability of a solid material to undergo permanent deformation, a non-reversible change of shape in response to applied forces. For example, a solid piece of metal being bent or pounded into a new shape displays plasticity as permanent changes occur within the material itself. In engineering, the transition from elastic behavior to plastic behavior is known as yielding. Plastic deformation is observed in most materials, particularly metals, soils, rocks, concrete, and foams.

Deformation (engineering)

In engineering, deformation refers to the change in size or shape of an object. Displacements are the absolute change in position of a point on the object. Deflection is the relative change in external displacements on an object. Strain is the relative internal change in shape of an infinitesimally small cube of material and can be expressed as a non-dimensional change in length or angle of distortion of the cube. Strains are related to the forces acting on the cube, which are known as stress, by a stress-strain curve.
