Dislocation dynamics simulations with climb: kinetics of dislocation loop coarsening controlled by bulk diffusion

Dislocation climb mobilities, assuming vacancy bulk diffusion, are derived and implemented in dislocation dynamics simulations to study the coarsening of vacancy prismatic loops in fcc metals. When loops cannot glide, the comparison of the simulations with a coarsening model based on the line tension approximation shows a good agreement. Dislocation dynamics simulations with both glide and climb are then performed. Allowing for glide of the loops along their prismatic cylinders leads to faster coarsening kinetics, as direct coalescence of the loops is now possible.

Impact of gamma' particle coarsening on the critical resolved shear stress of nickel-base superalloys with low aluminium and/or titanium content

In Ni-base superalloys with low Al and/or Ti content the precipitation and subsequent coarsening of gamma' particles at intermediate temperatures contribute to the degradation of the mechanical properties of the alloy. In the present paper the coarsening process is modelled and the change of the critical resolved shear stress of the alloy due to coarsening of the gamma' particles is calculated by means of statistical analysis of the depinning of a single gliding edge dislocation. It is found that the contribution of gamma' hardening to the critical resolved shear stress at 973 K reduces to more than half of its original value in less than one year.
