Microstructural Investigation and Mechanical Testing of an Ultrafine-grained Austenitic Stainless Steel
Chlupová, Alice ; Man, Jiří ; Polák, Jaroslav ; Karjalainen, L. P.
Special thermomechanical treatment based on high degree deformation followed by reversion annealing was applied to 301LN austenitic stainless steel to achieve ultrafine-grained (UFG) structure with considerably enhanced mechanical properties. Two different conditions of the thermomechanical treatment were adopted and resulting microstructures with different grain sizes were characterised by optical and high resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM-FEG). Hardness measurements and tensile tests were performed to characterize mechanical properties. To reveal structural changes induced during thermomechanical treatment and during tensile tests a magnetic induction method was additionally applied. Experimental study validated the ability of the above special treatment to produce austenitic stainless steel with grain size about 1.4 m which exhibits tensile strength about 1000MPa while ductility remains on level about 60 %. The results obtained for both thermomechanical conditions are compared and the relationship between microstructure refinement, phase content and mechanical properties is discussed.

Fatigue crack initiation — the role of point defects
Polák, Jaroslav ; Man, Jiří
The role of point defects in the formation of surface relief and in the initiation of a fatigue crack in crystalline materials is analyzed. The dislocation interactions in the bands of intensive cyclic slip are specified and relations describing the formation and annihilation of interstitial and vacancy type defects are derived. The formation, annihilation and migration of point defects is proposed to be responsible for the mass redistribution within PSB and between PSB and the matrix boundary. The redistribution of the matter results in local tensile and compressive stresses that are relaxed by continuous dislocation movement within PSB and lead to the formation of characteristic surface relief in the form of extrusions and intrusions.

Počáteční stadia únavového porušení polykrystalických materiálů
Man, Jiří ; Petrenec, Martin ; Obrtlík, Karel ; Polák, Jaroslav
Geometrie perzistentních skluzových stop (PSS) vytvořených v průběhu cyklického zatěžování v polykrystalických ocelích a superslitině byly hodnoceny použitím mikroskopu atomárních sil (AFM) a vysokorozlišovacím rastrovacím elektronovém mikroskopu (SEM-FEG). Vnitřní dislokační struktura slitin byla studována použitím transmisní elektronové mikroskopu (TEM). Byly identifikovány perzistentní skkluzové pásy s dislokační strukturou odpovídající lokalizaci cyklické plastické deformace ve všech slitinách a následně dány do souvislosti s PSS.

Quantitative assessment of the surface relief in fatigue using AFM
Man, Jiří ; Obrtlík, Karel ; Polák, Jaroslav
Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was applied to study the early stages of fatigue damage in polycrystalline copper and stainless 316L steel. The analysis of the image formation using an AFM tip reveals the lateral distortion of the extrusions and intrusions in case of high extrusions and deep intrusions. The true extrusion height can be obtained in direct observation and the depth of intrusions using replica technique. The evolution of the shape and the height of extrusions allowed to judge the activity of the persistent slip bands (PSBs) during fatigue life.
