Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: To accurately predict microstructure evolution and, hence, to synthesis metal and ceramic alloys with desirable properties involves many fundamental as well as practical issues. In the present study, novel theoretical and phase field approaches have been developed to address some of these issues including solute drag and segregation transition at grain boundaries and dislocations, grain growth in systems of anisotropic boundary properties, and precipitate microstructure development in polycrystalline materials. The segregation model has allowed for the prediction of a first-order segregation transition, which could be related to the sharp transition of solute concentration of grain boundary as a function of temperature. The incorporating of interfacial energy and mobility as functions of misorientation and inclination in the phase field model has allowed for the study of concurrent grain growth and texture evolution. The simulation results were analyzed using the concept of local grain boundary energy density, which simplified significantly the development of governing equations for texture controlled grain growth in Ti-6Al-4V. Quantitative phase field modeling techniques have been developed by incorporating thermodynamic and diffusivity databases. The models have been validated against DICTRA simulations in simple 1D problems and applied to simulate realistic microstructural evolutions in Ti-6Al-4V, including grain boundary a and globular a growth and sideplate development under both isothermal aging and continuous cooling conditions. The simulation predictions agree well with experimental observations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metallic alloys are a widely used class of structural materials, and the mechanical properties of these alloys are strongly dependent on the microstructure. Therefore, the scientific design of metallic materials with superior mechanical properties requires the understanding of the microstructural evolution. Computational models and simulations offer a number of advantages over experimental techniques in the prediction of microstructural evolution, because they can allow studies of microstructural evolution in situ, i.e., while the material is mechanically loaded (meso-scale simulations), and bring atomic-level insights into the microstructure (atomistic simulations). In this thesis, we applied a multi-scale modeling approach to study the microstructural evolution in several metallic systems, including polycrystalline materials and metallic glasses (MGs). Specifically, for polycrystalline materials, we developed a coupled finite element model that combines phase field method and crystal plasticity theory to study the plasticity effect on grain boundary (GB) migration. Our model is not only coupled strongly (i.e., we include plastic driving force on GB migration directly) and concurrently (i.e., coupled equations are solved simultaneously), but also it qualitatively captures such phenomena as the dislocation absorption by mobile GBs. The developed model provides a tool to study the microstructural evolution in plastically deformed metals and alloys. For MGs, we used molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the nucleation kinetics in the primary crystallization in Al-Sm system. We calculated the time-temperature-transformation curves for low Sm concentrations, from which the strong suppressing effect of Sm solute on Al nucleation and its influencing mechanism are revealed. Also, through the comparative analysis of both Al attachment and Al diffusion in MGs, it has been found that the nucleation kinetics is controlled by interfacial attachment of Al, and that the attachment behavior takes place collectively and heterogeneously, similarly to Al diffusion in MGs. Finally, we applied the MD technique to study the origin of five-fold twinning nucleation during the solidification of Al base alloys. We studied several model alloys and reported the observed nucleation pathway. We found that the key factors controlling the five-fold twinning are the twin boundary energy and the formation of pentagon structures, and the twin boundary energy plays the dominant role in the five-fold twinning in the model alloys studied.

Book Synopsis A Monte Carlo Potts Investigation of Microstructural Evolution by : Corentin Alain Pierre Nicolas Guebels
Download or read book A Monte Carlo Potts Investigation of Microstructural Evolution written by Corentin Alain Pierre Nicolas Guebels and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The microstructural changes that occur in metals and alloys due to deformation and heat treatment are often characterized according to the macroscale deformation process (i.e. cold or hot working). The general problem of this type of characterization is that it only distinguishes the general microstructural trends. For many decades, these microstructural phenomena have been described empirically or with limited experimental verification. This shortcoming is apparent for recrystallization and abnormal grain growth processes. Understanding and characterizing the thermal and mechanical processes that compete to control grain boundary kinetics and the subsequent microstructural evolution is critical. These include but are not limited to: the input and recovery of deformation energy, the influence of deformation energy on grain boundary migration, the mechanisms controlling the nucleation of new grains, and the effect of second-phase particles. The present work introduces a new temporal scaling method and investigates the conditions in which some grain boundaries may become unpinned in an otherwise stable, pinned microstructure and extends work done by E. Holm. The temporal scaling method contributes to resolving some of the limitations of Monte Carlo Potts (MCP) simulations in the investigation of the conditions and mechanisms that distinguish recrystallization from dynamic abnormal grain growth (DAGG). Grain boundary unpinning is then investigated for the case of an idealized spherical grain and for a polycrystalline microstructure. The mechanisms of grain boundary pinning and grain growth inhibition by second-phase particles are well known. The influence of simulation temperature on grain boundary unpinning is investigated numerically using a 3D Monte Carlo Potts approach. MCP based models are commonly implemented to simulate microstructural evolution. However, the numerical implementations of recrystallization and other deformation-induced phenomena often elude validation due to the lack of a common temporal scale. The numerical models for recovery, nucleation and recrystallization must be analyzed and verified in order to identify the conditions that initiate or the mechanisms driving DAGG. The temporal scaling method proposed in this work approaches this issue by identifying a time-energy relationship during normal grain growth simulations. This energy-based relationship creates the temporal scale for subsequent simulations of grain boundary migration during deformation. The applicability of this temporal scaling approach is investigated by considering a simple static recrystallization model. The present investigation predicts that the probability of grain boundaries becoming unpinned as a result of thermally-activated microstructural fluctuations increases with temperature while the characteristic time for unpinning to occur decreases. If the probability of grain boundary unpinning is relatively low and the characteristic time for unpinning to occur is not too large, it is possible for a single grain to become unpinned and grow to overtake the microstructure; this is particle assisted abnormal grain growth (PAAGG). The critical values of simulation temperature for the occurrence of PAAGG at prescribed particle volume fractions are characterized.
Book Synopsis Spectral Methods for Modeling Microstructure Evolution in Deformation Processing of Cubic Polycrystalline Metals by : Hari Kishore Duvvuru
Download or read book Spectral Methods for Modeling Microstructure Evolution in Deformation Processing of Cubic Polycrystalline Metals written by Hari Kishore Duvvuru and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mechanical properties of engineering materials are directly controlled by the underlying microstructure, which in turn is governed by the processing methods. The complete description of microstructure is extremely complex and is also not required for many microstructure-properties relationships of interest. The relevant details of the microstructure that influence strongly the elastic-plastic properties of the material include the lattice orientation distribution (texture), the grain size and shape distribution, and the arrangement and distribution of dislocation networks on the various slip systems in the constituent crystals. Of these, the crystallographic texture is perhaps the most important aspect of microstructure that has a strong influence on the elastic and the initial yield properties of most polycrystalline materials used in the manufacture of engineering components. It should also be noted that crystallographic texture is likely to have the dominant effect on the inherent anisotropy exhibited by these materials.The objective of this thesis is to provide a mathematical framework for the development of material databases; capturing the relevant details of the microstructure, while paying attention to inherent anisotropy of properties associated with them. Here crystallographic texture is the only microstructural parameter that is considered. This work is motivated by a new design paradigm called microstructure sensitive design (MSD) which employs statistical description of microstructure and its core feature is the efficient spectral representations of microstructure-property-processing linkages. Using the MSD framework as the basis, novel computational methodologies were developed in this work to build material spectral databases in single phase cubic polycrystalline materials. These databases were critically evaluated in three different cases: 1) To predict the effective macroscale elastic properties in perfectly disordered copper polycrystals 2) Evolution of the microstructure and the concomitant anisotropic stress-strain response during deformation processes in FCC polycrystals and (3) in developing a processing recipe to obtain a targeted texture using selected processing techniques.

Book Synopsis Grain Boundary Migration in Metals by : Gunter Gottstein
Download or read book Grain Boundary Migration in Metals written by Gunter Gottstein and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1999-06-17 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The behavior of adjacent materials at the boundary where they meet is an essential aspect of creating new engineering materials. Grain Boundary Migration in Metals is an authoritative account of the physics of grain boundary motion, written by two highly respected researchers. They provide a comprehensive overview of current knowledge regarding the migration process and how it affects microstructure evolution, focusing their treatment exclusively on the properties and behavior of grain boundaries with well defined geometry and crystallography. With their emphasis on applications-such as the characterization of microstructure and texture, recrystallization, and grain growth-the authors effectively fill the gap between the physics of grain boundary motion and its engineering practicality. The need for better microstructural design motivates permanent thrust for research in the field, and continued rapid progress appears inevitable. Grain Boundary Migration in Metals provides a solid foundation in the phenomena and serves as a valuable reference for professionals in materials science, solid state physics, and any industry engaged in metals production and the heat treatment of metals and alloys.
