Deformation Model of Magnesium Single Crystals

Resumo

There are many approaches to the description and prediction of mechanical properties of metal single crystals possessing various crystal lattices. For the first time, the von Mises yield criterion is generalized here for the case of uniaxial tension/compression, shear and uniaxial compression with the axis constraint of magnesium single crystals having a hexagonal close-packed lattice. The paper presents the assessment of anisotropy factors and the correlation between the yield stress and orientation of magnesium single crystals.
