| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study developed a nanostructural refinement method of metal surface on the order of nm by using the accumulation of irreversible dislocation generated and moved resulting from low-compressive cyclic load. The refinement experiments were performed in air, nitrogen, Ar and vacuum and the effects of atmosphere, the amount of load, and the number of cycles applied were investigated. As a result of using low carbon steel and aluminum alloy for a test material, nanostrucrual layer with grain size on the order of 1 micrometer or below was formed in both alloys. The grain size and the depth of refined layer was able to be controlled by the compressive load and the number of cycles. The amount of refinement was superior in air and nitrogen; however it was not so much in argon. In vacuum, nanostructural layer could not be observed. The above findings revealed that this nanostructural refinement method requires the synergistic effect between atmosphere and dislocation.
