Abstract
AbstractTiAl polysynthetically twinned (PST) crystals were deformed under plane strain condition, in which the anisotropic macroscopic deformation of PST crystals is restricted with a channel die, in order to clarify the deformation behavior of TiAl/Ti3Al lamellar structure under constraint conditions. TEM analysis of deformation modes together with the Taylor analysis reveals that all TiAl orientation variants deform to yield the relaxed-constraint-type plastic strain, where three shear strain components are not zero for each TiAl variant but are macroscopically compensated to zero by the existence of twin-related TiAl lamellae at the early stage of deformation. The Taylor analysis assuming the relaxed constraint conditions is found to be adaptable for predicting the operative deformation modes in TiAl at the early stage of deformation and also for correlating quantitatively the stress-strain behavior of PST crystals under external constraint with those under the unconstraint condition.
