Research Abstract |
Mechanical behavior of metals at the micron scale were systematically investigated, and a physically-based gradient crystal plasticity theory has been formulated. In the experimental part of the study, microbend tests with reversal of bending direction were carried out on aluminium and copper single-crystal foils. The results strongly suggested that internal stresses, which act as back-stresses, existed in the bent foil specimens due to a non-uniform array of the geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs). In the theoretical part, the effect of the GNDs was incorporated into a framework of gradient crystal plasticity theory.
