Question: ( 1 ) Plastic deformation concepts: a ) Define a slip system. b ) List the principal slip system for FCC and BCC crystal structures,

(1) Plastic deformation concepts:
a) Define a slip system.
b) List the principal slip system for FCC and BCC crystal structures, and state the number of independent slip systems.
c) Define qualitatively the principal slip system for HCP crystal structures, and state the number of independent slip systems.
(2) Given: single crystal of FCC metal. Tensile stress is applied in [012] direction. If the critical resolved shear stress is 50MPa, calculate the magnitude of applied stress
(3) Given: single crystal of BCC metal oriented such that a tensile stress with a magnitude of 60MPa is applied in the [ii12] direction.
a) Compute the maximum resolved shear stress on the (011) plane.
b) If CRSS=30MPa, will slip occur on this plane?
(4) The strengthening mechanisms discussed in class are dependent on restricting or hindering dislocation motion. Explain how dislocations are involved in the following strengthening mechanisms:
a) strain hardening (cold working)
b) grain size reduction
c) solid solution strengthening
(5) Cite the differences between recovery and recrystallization.
(6) An undeformed specimen of some metal alloy has an average grain size diameter of 1.0mm. Explain in qualitative terms how the average grain size diameter could be reduced to 0.03mm.(The given numbers are arbitrary - you will not need to solve any equations.)
(7) It is necessary to select a metal alloy for an application that requires a yield strength of at least 310MPa while maintaining a minimum ductility (%EL) of 27%. If the metal may be cold worked, which of the following are candidates: copper, brass, or 1040 steel?
