The effect of slip transfer on the flow strength of various FCC polycrystals was analyzed by means of computational homogenization of a representative volume element of the microstructure. The crystal behavior was governed by a…
Slip transfer across grain boundaries was studied in annealed polycrystalline Al foils deformed in uniaxial tension by means of the analysis of the slip traces on the specimen surface. Grain orientations and selected grain boundary…
Grain structure plays a key role in the mechanical properties of alloy materials. Engineering the grain structure requires a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of grain boundaries (GBs) when a material is subjected to various…
It is well known that grain boundaries (GBs) have a strong influence on mechanical properties of polycrystalline materials. Not as well-known is how different GBs interact with dislocations to influence dislocation movement. This work…
Slip transfer and blocking across grain boundaries was studied in a Ti foil with a strong rolling texture deformed in tension. Prior to deformation, the shape of the grains and the orientation of the grain boundaries were quantified through…
Plastic deformation in polycrystals is governed by the interplay between intra-granular slip and grain boundary-mediated plasticity. However, while the role played by bulk dislocations is relatively well-understood, the contribution of…
Grain boundary sliding (GBS) is a key deformation mechanism at high homologous temperatures in polycrystalline materials, however, its intrinsic behavior is often obscured by additional strain accommodation processes. In this study,…
The slip transfer phenomenon was studied at the grain boundaries of pure Aluminum by means of slip trace analysis. Either slip transfer or blocked slip was analyzed in more than 250 grain boundaries and the likelihood of slip transfer…
Plasticity in body-centred cubic (BCC) metals, including dislocation interactions at grain boundaries, is much less understood than in face-centred cubic (FCC) metals. At low temperatures additional resistance to dislocation motion due to…
Slip transfer at grain boundaries and annealing twin boundaries was studied in polycrystalline Ni by means of slip trace analysis. Slip transfer or blocking was assessed in $>$ 200 boundaries and was related with geometrical criteria that…
Grain boundaries (GBs) play a fundamental role in the strengthening mechanism of crystalline structures by acting as an impediment to dislocation motion. However, the presence of an aggressive environment such as hydrogen increases the…
We study the mechanisms of slip transfer at a grain boundary, in titanium, using Differential Aperture X-ray Laue Micro-diffraction (DAXM). This 3D characterization tool enables measurement of the full (9-component) Nye lattice curvature…
Grain boundaries (GBs) merge and grains disappear during microstructure evolution. However, the Peach-Koehler model predicts that particular stress states may reverse such a process by exerting differential Peach-Koehler forces on different…
For potentially wider applications of ceramics with dislocation-tuned mechanical and functional properties, it is pertinent to achieve dislocation engineering in polycrystalline ceramics. However, grain boundaries (GBs) in general are…
The dynamics of dislocation assemblies in deforming crystals indicate the emergence of collective phenomena, intermittent fluctuations and strain avalanches. In polycrystalline materials, the understanding of plastic deformation mechanisms…
Nanoindentation is a convenient method to investigate the mechanical properties of materials on small scales by utilizing low loads and small indentation depths. However, the effect of grain boundaries (GB) on the nanoindentation response…
Thermodynamic dislocation theory incorporating dislocation impediment by the grain boundaries is developed to analyze the shear test of polycrystals. With a small set of physics based material parameters, we are able to simulate the…
Low-angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) are often regarded as penetrable interfaces to dislocation motion, yet recent studies suggest they can also act as strong barriers. The origin of this duality remains debated, particularly regarding the…
The thermodynamic theory of dislocation/grain boundary interaction, including dislocation pile-up against, absorption by, and transfer through the grain boundary, is developed for nonuniform plastic deformations in polycrystals. The case…
Synchrotron Laue microdiffraction and Digital Image Correlation measurements were coupled to track the elastic strain field (or stress field) and the total strain field near a general grain boundary in a bent bicrystal. A 316L stainless…
