Plastic deformation of polycrystalline solids is accompanied by the appearance of linear rotational-type mesodefects at grain boundary ledges and triple junction of grains, such as starin induced junction disclinations. Junction disclinations generate long-range spatially inhomogeneous fields of elastic stresses, which significantly influence on the structure formation, strain hardening and fracture of materials. In present work a comparative analysis of the contributions of junction disclinations of different sign and strength to the plastic flow stress of a polycrystal is performed. The results of calculationsshow, that when a pile-up of lattice dislocations passes through the elastic field of disclinations, general regularities are observed.Regardless of the sign of disclination, it has a retarding effect on the plastic shear. The equilibrium distributions of the linear density and the density of the Burgers vector of dislocations pile-upretarded by the elastic field of disclination are calculated.It is shown that the largest number of dislocations is concentrated not in the pile-up head, as in classical dislocation pile-upsstoped near impenetrable barriers, but in its central part. The dependences of the critical stress of the passage of the head dislocation of the pile-up through the force barrier of disclination are calculated depending on the strength and sign of disclination, the number of dislocations in the pile-up, and the distance between the disclination and the slip plane of lattice dislocations.It is shown that the change in the sign of disclination significantly influences on the form of the equilibrium distribution of dislocations along the length of the pile-up, but practically does not affect the value of the critical shear stress. It is shown that for a fixed number of dislocations in the pile-up, the critical shear stress increases with the distance between the slip plane and disclination. Thus, when plastic deformation is localized, the greatest strengthening effect from the elastic field of junction disclination is achieved not near the boundary, but far from it. |
