Abstract: | It has been demonstrated that grain boundary sliding may contribute up to 50 percent of the total strain during experimental, high temperature deformation of Carrara Marble (Schmid, Paterson and Boland, 1980), yet the creep behavior was characterized by a high stress exponent and an apparent thermal dependence related to volume diffusion of carbon in calcite. By adopting the model of Gifkins (1976, 1977) for dislocation accommodated grain boundary sliding, incorporating Nabarro's model of creep by climbing edge dislocations (Weertman, 1975) and using the experimentally determined relationship between stress and subgrain (recrystallized grain) size, a model is developed which fits the high temperature creep data very well. In effect, the model assumes that deformation occurs by a combination of climb of edge dislocations and dislocation accommodated grain boundary sliding. It is shown that the model can be easily and reasonably extended to include creep by climb-controlled dislocation glide. |
