Abstract:
A multiparameter system has been developed which, for the first time, permits simultaneous measurement of sufficient quantities to test all of the proposed mechanisms for the influence of high-power ultrasound on metal specimens. Results of measurements using this system give new insight into the mechanical and thermal processes involved. Data are presented which show typical results obtained during tensile elongation of polycrystalline and single-crystal aluminum specimens.
