Development of an Experimental Method for Plastic Zone Observation

9412990 Rubinstein这是一个探索性研究类型的小型资助项目，旨在评估使用与再结晶相关的晶粒生长来定位裂纹前的弹塑性界面的可能性。 这些知识将有助于评价断裂力学理论。 主要问题是样品热处理的温度-时间模式的发展，以产生最敏感的弹塑性界面。 ***

9412990 Rubinstein This is a Small Grant for Exploratory Research type project to evaluate the possibility of using the grain growth associated with recrystallization to locate the elastic-plastic interface in front of a crack. Such knowledge would be useful in evaluating theories of fracture mechanics. The main issue is the development of temperature-time pattern for the sample heat treatment to yield the most sensitivity at the elastic-plastic interface. ***
