Course: MENG 327 Spring 2014 Instructor: Professor Hanadi Salem Assignment (4) Due Date: 30/3/2014 1.

Describe and illustrate the solidification process of a pure metal in terms of nucleation and growth of crystals. 2. Distinguish between a substitutional solid solution and an interstitial solid solution. 3. What are the conditions that are favorable for extensive solid solubility of one element in another? 4. Using the data in the table below, predict the relative degree of atomic solid solubility of the following elements in iron: a) Nickel c) Molybdenum e) Manganese

b) Chromium d) Titanium Use the scale very high, 70 -100%; high, 30 -70 %; moderate, 10 - 30%; low, 1 10%; very low, <1%.

5. Describe and illustrate the following imperfections, which can exist in crystal lattices: a) Frenkel imperfection b) Schottky imperfection 6. Describe and illustrate the edge dislocation. What types of strain fields surround it? 7. Describe the structure of a grain boundary. Why are grain boundaries favorable sites for the nucleation and growth of precipitates? 8. If there are 800 grains/in2 on a photomicrograph of a metal at 100X, what is the ASTM grain size number? MENG 327 Assignment (4)
