Q7> Ductile-to-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) is a very important parameter in the design of metallic materials for engineering applications. It has been well known that most of BCC and HCP metals show the DBT phenomenon; however, there is no DBTT in FCC metals. (a) Explain the reason in terms of deformation and fracture. You must compare the BCC and FCC.

Q7> Ductile-to-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) is a very important parameter in the design of metallic
materials for engineering applications. It has been well known that most of BCC and HCP metals show the DBT
phenomenon; however, there is no DBTT in FCC metals.
(a) Explain the reason in terms of deformation and fracture. You must compare the BCC and FCC.
(b) The ductile fracture surface consists of many dimples.
Explain their formation mechanism from the concept of point defects.
(c) There are two types in the brittle fracture. Explain and Compare them.
