Segregation at stacking faults within the γ′ phase of two Ni-base superalloys following intermediate temperature creep

Using state-of-the-art energy dispersive spectroscopy, it has been established for the first time that there exists significant compositional variation (enrichment of Co and Cr and deficiency of Ni and Al) associated with superlattice intrinsic stacking faults created in the ordered γ' precipitates following intermediate temperature deformation of two commercial superalloys. The results indicate that long range diffusion of these elements is intimately involved in the precipitate shearing process and is therefore closely linked to the time-dependent deformation of the alloys.

Periodic training of creeping solids

Significance It is well appreciated that many disordered materials deform their shape irreversibly (plastically) under an external load (e.g., memory foam). Here, we show that this plasticity can be exploited to train materials to develop novel elastic responses by straining them periodically. By applying different periodic strains to a common viscoelastic material, we are able to design a number of different responses. These include a maximally negative Poisson’s ratio, bistable behavior, and nonlocal bond-specific responses. In contrast to computer-aided design, we rely on plasticity to self-organize the system in response to local stresses. This approach shows promise to achieve an unprecedented control over behavior at large strains well beyond the linear-response regime.
