Abstract

The elastic properties of single crystals of a nickel-base superalloy VGM7 have been investigated by speckle interferometry. Plate-shaped specimens of different crystallographic orientations were loaded under pure shear conditions and speckle interference patterns were imaged. Numerical processing of the interference patterns allowed us to determine the values of Young’s modulus in directions [001] and [011], E001= 138 GPa and E001= 241 GPa, the basic value of Poisson’s ratio ν0= 0.39 in the coordinate system ⟨001⟩, as well as its minimum and maximum values νmin= −0.10 and νmax= 0.69 under longitudinal loading along [101] and transverse deformation along [101¯] and [010], respectively. Using the measured values E001, E011, ν0, νmin and νmax the single-crystal elastic stiffnesses  C11= 264 GPa, C12= 166 GPa and  C44= 133 GPa, and elastic compliances  S11= 7.35 TPa–1, S12= –2.84 TPa–1 and S44= 7.52 TPa–1 we calculated. The applied method allows one to unambiguously determine the sign of Poisson’s ratio and, therefore, it should be recommended for studying the elastic properties of auxetic materials, for which determination of the sign of Poisson’s ratio is of great importance.
