6- Texture development in brass? What causes the
transition in texture from copper type to
brass type? - Still disagreement in literature! Not just
because of twinning. Why? E.g., in copper rolled
at low temperatures, you obtain brass texture.
Also been associated with planar versus
diffuse slip.
7Mackenzie distribution
- Where does it come from?
- Why does it have the shape that it does?
8Texture hardening?
- Hardening mechanisms does texture count as a
hardening mechanism? Answer generally speaking,
texture is not hardening mechanism. Why? Cubic
materials range of Taylor factors is (approx.)
v6 - 4.5, i.e. range of Taylor factors is x2. - Lower symmetry materials depending on
deformation systems, range of Taylor factors can
be large factor of 4 or more.
9Texture hardening, contd.
- Texture (Taylor factor) this effect multiplies
any other hardening mechanisms. Why? Texture is
a geometrical Taylor factor multiplication
factor applied to critical resolved shear
stress. - Yield ltTaylor factorgt crss

1720 March 01, contd.
- Mid-term
- Q1 generally well answered, although very few
people thought to include the basic equation that
describes the defocussing correction that is so
very different from bulk samples. - Q2. A few people came up with odd values for
angles, suggesting that their version of hkl2eul
was not functioning correctly.
18- Q3. No problems here.
- Q4. The only issue here was that not everyone
showed the algebraic working to make the
connection between Miller indices and Euler
angles. - Q5. This question was answered well by
essentially everyone. There were some variations
in assumptions about cell centering but this was
acceptable based on the wording of the question.
19- Q6. This question was the most problematic. Not
everyone was able to get the hkl2eul program to
function correctly. With the symmetry operator
files, it appears that some did not copy the
header line that specifies the number of symmetry
operators, causing the code to think that there
was only one operator in any file. CUB.SYM
should have 24, and ORT.SYM, for example, should
have 4 operators. The last section (v) also was
harder to do than I expected and will need to be
re-written in a future version. It turned out to
be difficult to find orientations that clearly
demonstrated the expected variation in spread as
a function of the second angle.
20- Q7. The answers to this question were highly
variable. Those who plunged in and worked on the
algebra, mostly did quite well (and I
incorporated the alternative results in the
solution set). Some were able to find the
standard position of the alpha fiber but did not
know how to proceed on the 0,-1,1 case. In any
case, I hope that you find the answer interesting
and instructive, especially when you look
carefully at the Miller index charts.

24- Q. part b) with the formula given in class
(topology 22feb.ppt) -- I am getting negative
values for Nv(D) for group numbers 1, 2, and 3.
for dnL/dl, I used delta nL/delta l, where delta
is the difference between that group number's
value and the preceeding group number's value.
Is that the correct method? - A. The formula should lead you to calculate
nL/delta l/l-average, where l-average is the
average value of the length in the interval (i.e.
upperlower/2). You should then obtain
reasonable values of Nv in all the intervals,
i.e. be able to reproduce the graph given.
25Q. part c) the question asks to calculate the
distribution. are we simply supposed to plot nL
vs. l, or are we supposed to calculate a formula
for the distribution, e.g. sigma values etc.? A.
No, no curve fitting expected, just a plot of Nv
versus l size.
26- Q. part d) if we calculate Na from table 4.2 for
a truncated octahedron, are we supposed to plot
that vs. l, or is there something else we're to
do? - A. I made a mistake in writing this part of the
question. Obtaining size distributions for
non-spherical particles is not addressed in
Underwoods book, and although there are some
approximate results that could be obtained (with
Table 4.2, for example), it is not worth pursuing
at this stage.

43Why Offer a Course on Advanced Characterization
and Microstructural Analysis?
- The Materials Research, Science Engineering
Center at Carnegie Mellon supports an
interdisciplinary research group (IRG) called the
Mesoscale Interface Mapping Project (MIMP). - The MIMP is partnered with FSU/FAMU, Brigham
Young Univ., and Lehigh (among others).
44MIMP purpose
- The MIMPs purpose is to measure the properties
of grain boundaries (and other interfaces) in
sufficient detail that Grain Boundary Engineering
(GBE) can be conducted on a quantitative basis. - In its broadest sense, GBE is about obtaining the
microstructure-with-texture that optimizes a
given application.
45Course Objective
- Course aimed at providing basic tools for
pursuing the aims of MIMP texture,
microstructural characterization, analysis, grain
boundary analysis, anisotropy, engineering
application.
