Description:
NiAl is an intermetallic compound with a brittle-to-ductile transition temperature at about 300°C and ambient pressure. At standard conditions, it is very difficult to deform, but fracture stress and fracture strain are increased under high hydrostatic pressure. On account of this, deformation at low temperatures is only possible at high hydrostatic pressure, as for instance used in high pressure torsion. In order to study the influence of temperature on texture evolution, small discs of polycrystalline NiAl were deformed by high pressure torsion at temperatures ranging from room temperature to 500°C. At room temperature, a typical shear texture of body centred cubic metals is found, while at 500°C a strong oblique cube component dominates. These textures can be well simulated with the viscoplastic self-consistent polycrystal deformation model using the primary and secondary slip systems activated at low and high temperatures. The oblique cube component is a dynamic recrystalliz...
