Materials Science Aims and scope

Abstract

We propose to regard investigations in the field of high-temperature strength of structural metals and alloys interacting with corrosive media as high-temperature physicochemical mechanics of materials (HTPCMM). The most important feature of HTPCMM is the principle of correlation between deformation processes and physicochemical phenomena, which allows one to describe the features and regularities of changes in the properties of materials under service conditions most completely and correctly. We emphasize the most important role of diffusion as a controlling factor in a metal–medium system at high temperatures. Results of analytical investigations aimed at the development and investigation of physicomathematical models of elastic and elastoviscous multicomponent solid solutions with inherent degradation processes (accumulation of damage) are presented. The fact that, as a rule, these models are constructed within the framework of continuum mechanics on the basis of principles of nonequilibrium mechanics is noted Experimental data obtained, in particular, on refractory metals and titanium interacting actively with components of a vacuum or an inert atmosphere testify to the intensification of saturation of metals by interstitial impurities under conditions of long-term loading and to significant changes in the character of their creep, namely, under the influence of oxygen diffusion the creep rate decreases as stresses increase.
