Estimate the yield strength of a copper silica alloy which has spherical precipitates of silica of average radius 100 nm. The volume fraction of silica is 1%, the shear modulus is 4.2 × 1010 Nm-2 and the Burgers’ vector is 0.26nm.

Solution

The yeild strength of copper silica alloy is for the given parameters is calculated is 81mpa.
