Abstract

Work softening yield points have been studied in high purity polycrystalline aluminum tested in the temperature rangeT2 = 100°to 450°C at constant strain rate subsequent to prestraining in tension at a lower temperature (T1) = room temperature or 350° C) or higher strain rate. The yield drops increase with prestrain as well as with the difference between the flow stresses at the test and prestrain temperature. Reductions in the yield drop caused by annealing atT2 prior to testing indicate that the yield drops are the result of dynamic recovery. It is shown that dynamic recovery is accelerated by concurrent straining.
