摘要: 镁及镁合金是最轻的金属结构材料,广泛应用于航空航天工业、军工、交通等领域。由于镁及大部分镁合金均为密排六方晶体结构,滑移系少,相对于其它面心或体心结构金属来说塑性较差。本文运用分子动力学方法模拟了镁单晶在不同温度下沿c轴的拉伸时的变形机制。研究结果表明:在低温拉伸过程中,孪晶和剪切带是主要的变形行为。{10-12}孪晶是主要的拉伸形变孪晶,其与原始晶粒取向差约为90°,并通过原子运动的图像给出其形成机制。此外,模拟中还发现新晶粒形核伴随{10-12}孪晶的生长。当温度升高至450K以上时,孪晶的数量随着温度升高而减少。当温度达到570K时,{10-12}扩展孪晶几乎完全消失,非基面滑移成为高温拉伸的主要变形方式。

Abstract: The deformation behavior in magnesium single crystal under c-axis tension is investigated in a temperature range between 250 K and 570 K by molecular dynamics simulations. At a low temperature, twinning and shear bands are found to be the main deformation mechanisms. In particular, the {1012} tension twins with the reorientation angle of about 90° are observed in the simulations. The mechanisms of {1012} twinning are illustrated by the simulated motion of atoms. Moreover, grain nucleation and growth are found to be accompanied with the {1012} twinning. At temperatures above 450 K, the twin frequency decreases with increasing temperature. The {1012} extension twin almost disappears at the temperature of 570 K. The non-basal slip plays an important role on the tensile deformation in magnesium single crystal at high temperatures.
