Effect of natural ageing on the mechanical properties of molybdenum polycrystals

Correlation between the temperature dependence of yield stress and the nature of solute distribution in Cu–Ni solid solutions

“…For instance, solute segregation to partial dislocations [2][3][4][5] and stacking faults [6] as well as local ordering (whether short-range order or clustering) of solute atoms [7][8][9] in single-phase binary and ternary alloys play an important role in this regard. So is the case with the nominally pure metals [10][11][12] in which migration of point defects, e.g. residual gaseous and metallic impurity atoms and above-equilibrium vacancies, etc., to the cores of dislocations modify their mechanical properties.…”

On the strength and stress-relaxation response of fine-grain Cu–42.2at.%Zn–0.6at.%Pb alloy polycrystals

“…Since then a lot of work has been done to explore stress-relaxation response of various metals and alloys (e.g. [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]) keeping in view their numerous technological applications. Like all other metals, copper and copper-based alloys are also susceptible to stress-relaxation.…”
