On the Formation of Preferred Inclusion Shape Orientations in Copper‐Based Composites
Summary
A three-component model of a copper-based composite under tensile loading was used to show how microplastic zone formation causes the composite to transition from isotropic to anisotropic mechanical behavior. The model calculates the effective elastoplastic moduli as a function of applied load and microplastic zone concentration, informing design of copper-matrix composites.
A three‐component model of copper‐based composite loaded by tensile forces is proposed. The effect of a nonhydrostatic stress state and the formation of microplastic zones cause the transition of the composite from an isotropic to an anisotropic state. We calculate the tensor of effective elastoplastic modulii of the model as a function of the applied load and of the microplastic zone concentration.
