Abstract

Plastic deformation in compression has been studied in a two phase Fe-Ag system containing phases of equal concentration (50%) by volume which are closely interconnected. During deformation at ambient temperature and at a given strain rate, the phases are redistributed into alternating layers of iron and silver, normal to the direction of compression. It is believed that the yield strength is controlled by the iron, and that strengthening is governed by the silver at strains greater than about 30%. The redistribution of phases occurs in a different manner at 614°C under a constant tensile stress: the silver phase surrounds the dispersing iron phase. The strain rate increases during deformation.
