抄録

The low-temperature deformation behaviour of nickel containing up to 4 volume per cent zirconia is investigated by employing tensile tests and differential-stress creep experiments. At a given strain, the activation area decreases with increasing volume fraction of the dispersoid. The data on flow stress are not in quantitative agreement with the Orowan model for initial yielding and the Fisher-Hart-Pry mechanism for strain hardening. It is thought that the increase in flow stress and work hardening rate for the alloys may arise from the high initial dislocation density and its rapid increase with strain. The rate-controlling mechanism for deformation of zirconia-dispersed nickel appears to be the thermally activated intersection of dislocations.
