Plasticity (physics)
open-in-new
<h2 id="contributing-properties">Contributing properties</h2> <p>The plasticity of a material is directly proportional to the <a href="/facts/Ductility/SBJsahEk">ductility</a> and <a href="/facts/Malleability/SBJsahEk">malleability</a> of the material. </p> <h2 id="physical-mechanisms">Physical mechanisms</h2> <h3>In metals</h3> <p>Plasticity in a crystal of pure metal is primarily caused by two modes of deformation in the crystal lattice: slip and twinning. Slip is a shear deformation which moves the atoms through many interatomic distances relative to their initial positions. Twinning is the plastic deformation which takes place along two planes due to a set of forces applied to a given metal piece. </p><p>Most metals show more plasticity when hot than when cold. Lead shows sufficient plasticity at room temperature, while cast iron does not possess sufficient plasticity for any forging operation even when hot. This property is of importance in forming, shaping and extruding operations on metals. Most metals are rendered plastic by heating and hence shaped hot. </p> <h4>Slip systems</h4> <p class="note">Main article: <a href="/facts/Slip_(materials_science)/P29xbKBu">Slip (materials science) § Slip systems</a></p> <p>Crystalline materials contain uniform planes of atoms organized with long-range order. Planes may slip past each other along their close-packed directions, as is shown on the slip systems page. The result is a permanent change of shape within the crystal and plastic deformation. The presence of dislocations increases the likelihood of planes. </p> <h4>Reversible plasticity</h4> <p>On the nanoscale the primary plastic deformation in simple <a href="/facts/Face-centered_cubic/92Co7BKM">face-centered cubic</a> metals is reversible, as long as there is no material transport in form of <a href="/facts/Cross_Slip/L5B2aEA3">cross-slip</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> <a href="/facts/Shape-memory_alloy/dWInaJpt">Shape-memory alloys</a> such as Nitinol wire also exhibit a reversible form of plasticity which is more properly called <a href="/facts/Pseudoelasticity/yA6cNzIz">pseudoelasticity</a>. </p> <h4>Shear banding</h4> <p>The presence of other defects within a crystal may entangle dislocations or otherwise prevent them from gliding. When this happens, plasticity is localized to particular regions in the material. For crystals, these regions of localized plasticity are called <a href="/facts/Shear_band/u0TNv0fl">shear bands</a>. </p> <h4>Microplasticity</h4> <p>Microplasticity is a local phenomenon in metals. It occurs for <a href="/facts/Stress_(physics)/ErAXDbbd">stress</a> values where the metal is globally in the <a href="/facts/Elasticity_(physics)/wcJoIFg1">elastic</a> domain while some local areas are in the plastic domain.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a> </p> <h3>Amorphous materials</h3> <h4>Crazing</h4> <p>In <a href="/facts/Amorphous/YTIzmrR0">amorphous</a> materials, the discussion of "dislocations" is inapplicable, since the entire material lacks long range order. These materials can still undergo plastic deformation. Since amorphous materials, like polymers, are not well-ordered, they contain a large amount of free volume, or wasted space. Pulling these materials in tension opens up these regions and can give materials a hazy appearance. This haziness is the result of <i><a href="/facts/Crazing/CUL19l5z">crazing</a></i>, where <a href="/facts/Fibrils/C6k6DNL3">fibrils</a> are formed within the material in regions of high <a href="/facts/Hydrostatic_stress/c5Id9Xq0">hydrostatic stress</a>. The material may go from an ordered appearance to a "crazy" pattern of strain and stretch marks. </p> <h3>Cellular materials</h3> <p>These materials plastically deform when the bending moment exceeds the fully plastic moment. This applies to open cell foams where the bending moment is exerted on the cell walls. The foams can be made of any material with a plastic yield point which includes rigid polymers and metals. This method of modeling the foam as beams is only valid if the ratio of the density of the foam to the density of the matter is less than 0.3. This is because beams yield axially instead of bending. In closed cell foams, the yield strength is increased if the material is under tension because of the membrane that spans the face of the cells. </p> <h3>Soils and sand</h3> <p class="note">Main article: <a href="/facts/Critical_state_soil_mechanics/dYc86M7c">critical state soil mechanics</a></p> <p>Soils, particularly clays, display a significant amount of inelasticity under load. The causes of plasticity in soils can be quite complex and are strongly dependent on the <a href="/facts/Microstructure/dVGy1kq2">microstructure</a>, chemical composition, and water content. Plastic behavior in soils is caused primarily by the rearrangement of clusters of adjacent grains. </p> <h3>Rocks and concrete</h3> <p class="note">Main article: <a href="/facts/Rock_mass_plasticity/nG1GvGMW">rock mass plasticity</a></p> <p>Inelastic deformations of rocks and concrete are primarily caused by the formation of microcracks and sliding motions relative to these cracks. At high temperatures and pressures, plastic behavior can also be affected by the motion of dislocations in individual grains in the microstructure. </p> <h2 id="time-independent-yielding-and-plastic-flow-in-crystalline-materials">Time-independent yielding and plastic flow in crystalline materials</h2> <p><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9"><sup>9</sup></a> </p><p>Time-independent plastic flow in both single crystals and polycrystals is defined by a critical/maximum resolved <a href="/facts/Shear_stress/aWWnzIhE">shear stress</a> (<i>τ</i>CRSS), initiating dislocation migration along parallel slip planes of a single slip system, thereby defining the transition from elastic to plastic deformation behavior in crystalline materials. </p> <h3>Time-independent yielding and plastic flow in single crystals</h3> <p>The critical resolved shear stress for single crystals is defined by Schmid’s law <i>τ</i>CRSS=σy/m, where σy is the yield strength of the single crystal and <i>m</i> is the Schmid factor. The Schmid factor comprises two variables λ and φ, defining the angle between the slip plane direction and the tensile force applied, and the angle between the slip plane normal and the tensile force applied, respectively. Notably, because <i>m</i> > 1, <i>σ</i><i>y</i> > <i>τ</i>CRSS. </p> <h4>Critical resolved shear stress dependence on temperature, strain rate, and point defects</h4> <p>There are three characteristic regions of the critical resolved shear stress as a function of temperature. In the low temperature region 1 (<i>T</i> ≤ 0.25<i>T</i>m), the <a href="/facts/Strain_rate/QptTh1KW">strain rate</a> must be high to achieve high <i>τ</i>CRSS which is required to initiate dislocation glide and equivalently plastic flow. In region 1, the critical resolved shear stress has two components: athermal (<i>τ</i><i>a</i>) and thermal (<i>τ</i>*) shear stresses, arising from the stress required to move dislocations in the presence of other dislocations, and the resistance of point defect obstacles to dislocation migration, respectively. At <i>T</i> = <i>T</i>*, the moderate temperature region 2 (0.25<i>T</i>m < <i>T</i> < 0.7<i>T</i>m) is defined, where the thermal shear stress component <i>τ</i>* → 0, representing the elimination of point defect impedance to dislocation migration. Thus the temperature-independent critical resolved shear stress τCRSS = τa remains so until region 3 is defined. Notably, in region 2 moderate temperature time-dependent plastic deformation (creep) mechanisms such as solute-drag should be considered. Furthermore, in the high temperature region 3 (<i>T</i> ≥ 0.7<i>T</i>m) έ can be low, contributing to low τCRSS, however plastic flow will still occur due to thermally activated high temperature time-dependent plastic deformation mechanisms such as Nabarro–Herring (NH) and Coble diffusional flow through the lattice and along the single crystal surfaces, respectively, as well as dislocation climb-glide creep. </p><h4>Stages of time-independent plastic flow, post yielding</h4> <p>During the easy glide stage 1, the work hardening rate, defined by the change in shear stress with respect to shear strain (<i>dτ</i>/<i>dγ</i>) is low, representative of a small amount of applied shear stress necessary to induce a large amount of shear strain. Facile dislocation glide and corresponding flow is attributed to dislocation migration along parallel slip planes only (i.e. one slip system). Moderate impedance to dislocation migration along parallel slip planes is exhibited according to the weak stress field interactions between these dislocations, which heightens with smaller interplanar spacing. Overall, these migrating dislocations within a single slip system act as weak obstacles to flow, and a modest rise in stress is observed in comparison to the yield stress. During the linear hardening stage 2 of flow, the work hardening rate becomes high as considerable stress is required to overcome the stress field interactions of dislocations migrating on non-parallel slip planes (i.e. multiple slip systems), acting as strong obstacles to flow. Much stress is required to drive continual dislocation migration for small strains. The shear flow stress is directly proportional to the square root of the dislocation density (τflow ~<i>ρ</i>½), irrespective of the evolution of dislocation configurations, displaying the reliance of hardening on the number of dislocations present. Regarding this evolution of dislocation configurations, at small strains the dislocation arrangement is a random 3D array of intersecting lines. Moderate strains correspond to cellular dislocation structures of heterogeneous dislocation distribution with large dislocation density at the cell boundaries, and small dislocation density within the cell interior. At even larger strains the cellular dislocation structure reduces in size until a minimum size is achieved. Finally, the work hardening rate becomes low again in the exhaustion/saturation of hardening stage 3 of plastic flow, as small shear stresses produce large shear strains. Notably, instances when multiple slip systems are oriented favorably with respect to the applied stress, the τCRSS for these systems may be similar and yielding may occur according to dislocation migration along multiple slip systems with non-parallel slip planes, displaying a stage 1 work-hardening rate typically characteristic of stage 2. Lastly, distinction between time-independent plastic deformation in body-centered cubic transition metals and face centered cubic metals is summarized below. </p>Comparison between the time-independent plastic deformation of body centered cubic transition metals and face centered cubic metals, highlighting the critical resolved shear stress, work hardening rate, and necking strain during tensile testing.<table><tbody><tr><th>Body-centered cubic transition metals</th><th>Face-centered cubic metals</th></tr><tr><td>Critical resolved shear stress = high (relatively) & strongly temperature-dependent</td><td>Critical resolved shear stress = low (relatively) & weakly temperature-dependent</td></tr><tr><td>Work hardening rate = temperature-independent</td><td>Work hardening rate = temperature-dependent</td></tr><tr><td>Necking strain increases with temperature</td><td>Necking strain decreases with temperature</td></tr></tbody></table> <h3>Time-independent yielding and plastic flow in polycrystals</h3> <p>Plasticity in polycrystals differs substantially from that in single crystals due to the presence of grain boundary (GB) planar defects, which act as very strong obstacles to plastic flow by impeding dislocation migration along the entire length of the activated slip plane(s). Hence, dislocations cannot pass from one grain to another across the grain boundary. The following sections explore specific GB requirements for extensive plastic deformation of polycrystals prior to fracture, as well as the influence of microscopic yielding within individual crystallites on macroscopic yielding of the polycrystal. The critical resolved shear stress for polycrystals is defined by Schmid’s law as well (τCRSS=σy/ṁ), where σy is the yield strength of the polycrystal and <i>ṁ</i> is the weighted Schmid factor. The weighted Schmid factor reflects the least favorably oriented slip system among the most favorably oriented slip systems of the grains constituting the GB. </p> <h4>Grain boundary constraint in polycrystals</h4> <p>The GB constraint for polycrystals can be explained by considering a grain boundary in the xz plane between two single crystals A and B of identical composition, structure, and slip systems, but misoriented with respect to each other. To ensure that voids do not form between individually deforming grains, the GB constraint for the bicrystal is as follows: εxxA = εxxB (the x-axial strain at the GB must be equivalent for A and B), εzzA = εzzB (the z-axial strain at the GB must be equivalent for A and B), and εxzA = εxzB (the xz shear strain along the xz-GB plane must be equivalent for A and B). In addition, this GB constraint requires that five independent slip systems be activated per crystallite constituting the GB. Notably, because independent slip systems are defined as slip planes on which dislocation migrations cannot be reproduced by any combination of dislocation migrations along other slip system’s planes, the number of geometrical slip systems for a given crystal system - which by definition can be constructed by slip system combinations - is typically greater than that of independent slip systems. Significantly, there is a maximum of five independent slip systems for each of the seven crystal systems, however, not all seven crystal systems acquire this upper limit. In fact, even within a given crystal system, the composition and Bravais lattice diversifies the number of independent slip systems (see the table below). In cases for which crystallites of a polycrystal do not obtain five independent slip systems, the GB condition cannot be met, and thus the time-independent deformation of individual crystallites results in cracks and voids at the GBs of the polycrystal, and soon fracture is realized. Hence, for a given composition and structure, a single crystal with less than five independent slip systems is stronger (exhibiting a greater extent of plasticity) than its polycrystalline form. </p> The number of independent slip systems for a given composition (primary material class) and structure (Bravais lattice).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10"><sup>10</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11"><sup>11</sup></a><table><tbody><tr><th>Bravais lattice</th><th>Primary material class: # Independent slip systems</th></tr><tr><td>Face centered cubic</td><td>Metal: 5, ceramic (covalent): 5, ceramic (ionic): 2</td></tr><tr><td>Body centered cubic</td><td>Metal: 5</td></tr><tr><td>Simple cubic</td><td>Ceramic (ionic): 3</td></tr><tr><td>Hexagonal</td><td>Metal: 2, ceramic (mixed): 2</td></tr></tbody></table> <h4>Implications of the grain boundary constraint in polycrystals</h4> <p>Although the two crystallites A and B discussed in the above section have identical slip systems, they are misoriented with respect to each other, and therefore misoriented with respect to the applied force. Thus, microscopic yielding within a crystallite interior may occur according to the rules governing single crystal time-independent yielding. Eventually, the activated slip planes within the grain interiors will permit dislocation migration to the GB where many dislocations then pile up as geometrically necessary dislocations. This pile up corresponds to strain gradients across individual grains as the dislocation density near the GB is greater than that in the grain interior, imposing a stress on the adjacent grain in contact. When considering the AB bicrystal as a whole, the most favorably oriented slip system in A will not be the that in B, and hence τACRSS ≠ τBCRSS. Paramount is the fact that macroscopic yielding of the bicrystal is prolonged until the higher value of τCRSS between grains A and B is achieved, according to the GB constraint. Thus, for a given composition and structure, a polycrystal with five independent slip systems is stronger (greater extent of plasticity) than its single crystalline form. Correspondingly, the work hardening rate will be higher for the polycrystal than the single crystal, as more stress is required in the polycrystal to produce strains. Importantly, just as with single crystal flow stress, τflow ~ρ½, but is also inversely proportional to the square root of average grain diameter (τflow ~d-½ ). Therefore, the flow stress of a polycrystal, and hence the polycrystal’s strength, increases with small grain size. The reason for this is that smaller grains have a relatively smaller number of slip planes to be activated, corresponding to a fewer number of dislocations migrating to the GBs, and therefore less stress induced on adjacent grains due to dislocation pile up. In addition, for a given volume of polycrystal, smaller grains present more strong obstacle grain boundaries. These two factors provide an understanding as to why the onset of macroscopic flow in fine-grained polycrystals occurs at larger applied stresses than in coarse-grained polycrystals. </p> <h2 id="mathematical-descriptions">Mathematical descriptions</h2> <h3>Deformation theory</h3> <p>There are several mathematical descriptions of plasticity.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12"><sup>12</sup></a> One is deformation theory (see e.g. <a href="/facts/Hooke%2527s_law/7hTUcKUm">Hooke's law</a>) where the <a href="/facts/Cauchy_stress_tensor/5MsXPQVH">Cauchy stress tensor</a> (of order d-1 in d dimensions) is a function of the strain tensor. Although this description is accurate when a small part of matter is subjected to increasing loading (such as strain loading), this theory cannot account for irreversibility. </p><p>Ductile materials can sustain large plastic deformations without <a href="/facts/Fracture/nxDNAj0d">fracture</a>. However, even ductile metals will fracture when the <a href="/facts/Strain_(materials_science)/xK7R59oI">strain</a> becomes large enough—this is as a result of <a href="/facts/Work_hardening/Jh38U7rz">work hardening</a> of the material, which causes it to become <a href="/facts/Brittle/cn27H2vg">brittle</a>. <a href="/facts/Heat_treatment/xR2tVyTU">Heat treatment</a> such as <a href="/facts/Annealing_(metallurgy)/2AfoCE4X">annealing</a> can restore the <a href="/facts/Ductility/SBJsahEk">ductility</a> of a worked piece, so that shaping can continue. </p> <h3>Flow plasticity theory</h3> <p class="note">Main article: <a href="/facts/Flow_plasticity_theory/lt89zqkm">Flow plasticity theory</a></p> <p>In 1934, <a href="/facts/Egon_Orowan/qdTechNr">Egon Orowan</a>, <a href="/facts/Michael_Polanyi/rNDMTXF6">Michael Polanyi</a> and <a href="/facts/Geoffrey_Ingram_Taylor/akUuexNt">Geoffrey Ingram Taylor</a>, roughly simultaneously, realized that the plastic deformation of ductile materials could be explained in terms of the theory of <a href="/facts/Dislocations/m1tkJYIq">dislocations</a>. The mathematical theory of plasticity, <a href="/facts/Flow_plasticity_theory/lt89zqkm">flow plasticity theory</a>, uses a set of non-linear, non-integrable equations to describe the set of changes on strain and stress with respect to a previous state and a small increase of deformation. </p> <h2 id="yield-criteria">Yield criteria</h2> <p class="note">Main article: <a href="/facts/Yield_(engineering)/mrSg02gW">Yield (engineering)</a></p> <p>If the stress exceeds a critical value, as was mentioned above, the material will undergo plastic, or irreversible, deformation. This critical stress can be tensile or compressive. The Tresca and the <a href="/facts/Von_Mises_yield_criterion/NQd2Sqgs">von Mises</a> criteria are commonly used to determine whether a material has yielded. However, these criteria have proved inadequate for a large range of materials and several other yield criteria are also in widespread use. </p> <h3>Tresca criterion</h3> <p>The Tresca criterion is based on the notion that when a material fails, it does so in shear, which is a relatively good assumption when considering metals. Given the principal stress state, we can use <a href="/facts/Mohr%2527s_circle/GwCA1EqH">Mohr's circle</a> to solve for the maximum shear stresses our material will experience and conclude that the material will fail if </p> σ 1 − σ 3 ≥ σ 0 {\displaystyle \sigma _{1}-\sigma _{3}\geq \sigma _{0}} <p>where <i>σ</i>1 is the maximum normal stress, <i>σ</i>3 is the minimum normal stress, and <i>σ</i>0 is the stress under which the material fails in uniaxial loading. A <a href="/facts/Yield_surface/nM09XVJe">yield surface</a> may be constructed, which provides a visual representation of this concept. Inside of the yield surface, deformation is elastic. On the surface, deformation is plastic. It is impossible for a material to have stress states outside its yield surface. </p> <h3>Huber–von Mises criterion</h3> <p class="note">Main article: <a href="/facts/Von_Mises_yield_criterion/NQd2Sqgs">Von Mises yield criterion</a></p> <p>The Huber–von Mises criterion<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13"><sup>13</sup></a> is based on the Tresca criterion but takes into account the assumption that hydrostatic stresses do not contribute to material failure. <a href="/facts/Tytus_Maksymilian_Huber/J0N3RYTw">M.
