Abstract

Particle-reinforced metal matrix composites exhibit a strengthening effect due to the particle size-dependent length scale that arises from the strain gradient, and thus from the geometrically necessary dislocations between the particles and matrix that result from their CTE(Coefficient of Thermal Expansion) and elastic-plastic mismatches. In this study, the influence of the size-dependent length scale on the particle-matrix interface failure and ductile failure in the matrix was examined using finite-element punch zone modeling whereby an augmented strength was assigned around the particle. The failure behavior was observed by a parametric study, while varying the interface failure properties such as the interface strength and debonding energy with different particle sizes and volume fractions. It is shown that the two failure modes (interface failure and ductile failure in the matrix) interact with each other and are closely related to the particle size-dependent length scale; in other words, the composite with the smaller particles, which is surrounded by a denser dislocation than that with the larger particles, retards the initiation and growth of the interface and matrix failures, and also leads to a smaller amount of decrease in the flow stress during failure.

입자강화 금속기지 복합재는 입자와 기지재간의 열팽창계수 차이와 탄소성 강성도의 차이에 따라 변형률 구배가 발생하고 이로 인한 기하적 필수 전위가 입자 주위에 형성됨에 따라 변형시 입자 크기 의존 길이 스케일에 의한 강화 효과를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소법을 활용하여 복합재를 압밀 성형할 때 입자 주위에 펀칭되는 기하적 필수 전위에 의한 강도 증가를 입자 주위 영역에 부가시켜 입자 의존 길이 스케일이 복합재의 입자 경계 파손 및 기지재의 연성 파손에 미치는 영향을 살펴 보았다. 파손 거동은 입자의 크기와 체적비를 달리하고, 특히 분리 에너지와 강도 등의 경계 파손 물성값을 변화시켜가는 매개변수적 계산을 수행하여 관찰하였다. 두 개의 파손 모드는 서로 영향을 미치면서 입자 크기 의존 길이 스케일에 밀접하게 연관됨을 보였다. 즉 입자의 크기가 작은 경우에 입자의 크기가 큰 경우에 비하여 입자를 둘러싸고 있는 기하적 필수 전위가 상대적으로 더 집적됨으로 인해 입자경계와 기지재의 연성 파손에 의한 복합재의 파손 개시가 지연되고 파손이 진행되는 동안의 유동 응력 감소도 상대적으로 작은 것을 보였다.
