Consider a single crystal of silver oriented such that a tensile stress is applied along a \([001]\) direction. If slip occurs on a (111) plane and in a [ \(\overline{101}\) ] direction, and is initiated at an applied tensile stress of \(1.1 \mathrm{MPa}\) (160 psi), compute the critical resolved shear stress.
To provide some perspective on the dimensions of atomic defects, consider a metal specimen that has a dislocation density of \(10^{4} \mathrm{mm}^{-2}\). Suppose that all the dislocations in \(1000 \mathrm{~mm}^{3}\left(1 \mathrm{~cm}^{3}\right)\) were somehow removed and linked end to end. How far (in miles) would this chain extend? Now suppose that the density is increased to \(10^{10} \mathrm{~mm}^{-2}\) by cold working. What would be the chain length of dislocations in \(1000 \mathrm{~mm}^{3}\) of material?
(a) Show, for a tensile test, that $$ \% \mathrm{CW}=\left(\frac{\epsilon}{\epsilon+1}\right) \times 100 $$ if there is no change in specimen volume during the deformation process (i.e., \(A_{0} l_{0}=A_{d} l_{d}\) ). (b) Using the result of part (a), compute the percent cold work experienced by naval brass (the stress-strain behavior of which is shown in Figure 6.12) when a stress of 400 MPa \((58,000\) psi) is applied.
Briefly explain why HCP metals are typically more brittle than FCC and BCC metals.
An uncold-worked brass specimen of average grain size \(0.008 \mathrm{~mm}\) has a yield strength of 160 MPa \((23,500\) psi). Estimate the yield strength of this alloy after it has been heated to \(600^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) for \(1000 \mathrm{~s}\), if it is known that the value of \(k_{y}\) is \(12.0 \mathrm{MPa} \cdot \mathrm{mm}^{1 / 2}\left(1740 \mathrm{psi} \cdot \mathrm{mm}^{1 / 2}\right)\)
