Creep tests were conducted under a condition of constant stress on two aluminum-based alloys containing particles: Al-5% Mg-0.25% Fe and Al-5% Zn-0.22% Fe. The role of grain boundary sliding was examined in the plane of the surface using a square grid printed on the surface by carbon deposition and perpendicular to the surface using two-beam interferometry. Estimates of the contribution of grain boundary sliding to the total strain, $\varepsilon_{gbs}/\varepsilon_t$ reveal two trends; (i) the sliding contribution is consistently higher in the Al-Mg-Fe alloy, and (ii) the sliding contribution is essentially independent of strain in the Al-Mg-Fe alloy, but it shows a significant decrease with increasing strain in the Al-Zn-Fe alloy. Sliding is inhibited by the presence of particles and its contributions to the total strain are low. This inhibition is attributed to the interaction between the grain boundary dislocations responsible for sliding and particles in the boundaries.

Creep of metals has been explained conventionally by dislocation climb and grain boundary sliding indiffusion controlled process. The reorienations of the atoms in the grain by three dimensional crystallizing $\pi$-bondings are visualized as grain rotatins during slow deformation, fold formatin at triple point, increased crevice dspace between grains. grain boundary sliding, grain boundary micration and formation of cracks at the grain boundaries . And also the rupture time and average creep strain rate are explained by the three-dimensional crystallizing $\pi$- bondings and they can be determined by uniaxial tensile test.

It is known that superplastic materials with ultrafine grains have high elongation mainly due to grain boundary sliding. Therefore, in the present study we examined the influence of grain refinement, caused by a repetitive cold rolling and annealing process, on both superplastic elongation and superplastic deformation mechanism. The cold rolling and annealing process was repetitively applied up to 4 times using Fe-10Mn-3.5Si alloy. High-temperature tensile tests were conducted at 763 K with an initial strain rate of 1 × 10^-3 s^-1 using the specimens. The superplastic elongation increased with the number of the repetitive cold rolling and annealing process; in particular, the 4 cycled specimen exhibited the highest elongation of 372%. The primary deformation mechanism of all specimens was grain boundary sliding between recrystallized α-ferrite and reverted γ-austenite grains. The main reason for the increase in elongation with the number of the repetitive cold rolling and annealing process was the increase in fractions of fine recrystallized α-ferrite and reverted γ-austenite grains, which undergo grain boundary sliding.

Deformation mechanism map of Langdon-Mohammed type for YBa2Cu3O7-x superconducting ceramic was constructed by considering mechanisms of Nabarro-Herring Coble and powder-law creep and grain boundary sliding (GBS) with an accommodation by grain boundary diffusion. The map was found consistent with experi-mental results not only of the creep the also of the superplastic deformation. It showed the transition from interface reaction-controlled to the grain boundary diffusion-controlled GBS mechanism at about 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ grain size and 100 MPa flow stress in agreement with the experimental results.

This report details the microscopic aspects of grain boundary cracking in Pb-Sn eutecticduring displacement-controlled mechanical tests performed over a range of low frequency ($10^{-3}-10^{-5}$/s)and moderate strain range (0.2 - 1 %) where is the most technologically relevant to solder jointssubjected to thermal cycling. It is shown that intergranular cracking begins with the appearance ofcrack-like features (CLF's), which can be seen due in part because they are associated with grainboundary sliding, and is able to be described by certain stages of isolated crack growth. In the initialstages CLF's are not ture cracks but instead what I shall call "proto-cracks" where grain boundarysliding begins to damage the gram boundary at the surface. At some point during the initiation stagesonce proto-cracks become ture cracks, they develop into isolated cracks and the growth of isolatedcracks is eventually accomplished by coalescence, resulting in 5 stages of cracking.ing in 5 stages of cracking.

The effect of strain accumulation on the superplastic deformation behavior has been investigated through a series of load relaxation tests. The experimental results were analyzed using the recently proposed inelastic constitutive theory. The superplastic deformation of fine grained materials is confirmed to consist of grain boundary sliding and accommodating grain matrix deformation. However the flow behavior is changed with the plastic strain. It is believed that the microstructural changes such as grain growth and cavitation affect the superplastic deformation behaviors.

The superplastic deformation behaviors of 7075Al alloy have been characterized experimentally and analyzed by the internal variable theory of inelastic deformation. A simple rheological model including the grain boundary sliding has been used to interpret the superplastic deformation behaviors. A series of load relaxation and tensile tests have been carried out for 7075Al alloy at the various temperatures. The superplastic deformation of 7075Al alloy is confirmed to consist of the grain boundary sliding and accommodating grain matrix defprmation.

The current understanding for phase/grain boundary sliding and low-temperature/high-strain rate superplasticity of two-phase titanium alloys is summarized. The quantitative analysis on boundary sliding revealed increased sliding resistance on the order of $\alpha/\beta\;\ll\;\alpha/\alpha\;\approx\;\beta/\beta$ boundary, hence, led to the conclusion that approximately 50% alpha(or beta) volume fraction and/or grain refinement is beneficial for obtaining large superplastic elongation at low temperature and/or high strain rate. To predict the temperature for 50% alpha volume in various alpha/beta Ti, artificial neural network was applied. Finally, much enhanced superplasticity was achieved through grain refinement utilizing dynamic globularization.
