Dispersion strengthened Cu alloys have been manufactured by spray forming and also by reactive spray forming, followed by hot extrusion of the spray deposited billets. The size of dispersed particles in the reactive spray formed alloy was much finer than that in the spray formed alloy. That was because the dominant chemical reaction between Ti and B had occurred in Cu-Ti-B alloy melt in spray forming while it had occurred after deposition of droplets in reactive spray forming. The yield strength of the reactive spray formed alloy was greater than that of the spray formed alloy. To understand the mechanism responsible for this observed strengthening, the yield strength of two Cu alloys were analyzed using the dislocation pile-up model and Orowan mechanism, which were fairly consistent with the experimental results. Increase in yield strength of reactive spray formed alloy relative to spray formed alloy was largely attributed to nano-scale TiB dispersoids.

Oxide dispersed strengthened (ODS) steel is an important candidate for Gen-IV reactors. Oxide embedded in Fe can help to trap irradiation defects and enhances the strength of steel. It was observed in this study that the size of oxide has a profound impact on the depinning mechanism. For smaller sizes, the oxide acts as a void; thus, letting the dislocation bypass without any shear. On the other hand, oxides larger than 2 nm generate new dislocation segments around themselves. The depinning is similar to that of Orowan mechanism and the strengthening effect is likely to be greater for larger oxides. It was found that higher shear deformation rates produce more fine-tuned stress-strain curve. Both molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and BKS (Bacon-Knocks-Scattergood) model display similar characteristics whereby establishing an inverse relation between the depinning stress and the obstacle distance. It was found that (110)_oxide || (111)_Fe (oriented oxide) also had similar characteristics as that of (100)_oxide || (111)_Fe but resulted in an increased depinning stress thereby providing greater resistance to dislocation bypass. Our simulation results concluded that critical depinning stress depends significantly on the size and orientation of the oxide.
