The Effects of Grain Size on the Flow and Fracture of Long-Range Ordered Alloys
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 February 2011
Extract
Three points usually come to mind when considering the effects of grain size on the mechanical properties of polycrystals: strengthening at low temperatures through grain refinement, strengthening at high temperatures through grain coarsening, and lowering of the ductile to brittle transition temperature in materials such as ferritic steels and zinc through grain refinement. Ordered alloys, as we shall see, exhibit the same effects.
