Abstract

Many intermetallic alloys with L12, L10 and BCC related structures exhibit yield-stress anomalies, which have strong influence on their mechanical properties at intermediate temperatures. A short review is made of the anomalous glide systems in various intermetallics. They are shown to exhibit several common characteristics, which allow it to classify them into three groups with possibly similar dislocation mechanisms. In the second half, the well-known case of octahedral glide in Ni3Al is considered again, and a new model is proposed, based on the formation and the unlocking process of incomplete Kear-Wilsdorf locks by a double cross-slip mechanism. This model is supported by several microscopic and macroscopic observations including “in situ” straining experiments in a TEM. It accounts for the positive temperature dependence of the yield-stress with fairly good orders-of-magnitude estimates of the stress. It also explains satisfactorily the small stress-strain rate sensitivity and the transient effects.
