An Ashb y- type deform at ion mechan ism map m ay be cons iderab ly s impl i f ied by p lo t t ing
in the form of normal ized stress versus the reciprocal of the hom ologous temp erature. In
this fo rm the b oun daries separat ing the var ious f ields appea r as straigh t l ines and the
co ns tant strain rate co ntou rs ma y be ap prox ima ted as straight l ines. Representat ive m aps

*A comparison of Figs. 4 and 5 reveals a slight difference in the positio n of the two strain rate con tours within the
Ha rper -D orn f ield. This difference ar ises because Fig. 4 re la tes to a grain size of 370 ~m , when Harp er-D orn and
Na bar ro-H errin g creep b oth contribute equally to the strain rate. At larger grain sizes, when
:NIt
is significantly
lower than
~I-ID,
he strain rate co ntours in the H arpe r-D orn f ield are independent of the value ofd .
