Modeling of the Heterogeneous Deformation of an Aggregate of Grains
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 March 2011
Abstract
Multiple layers of an Interstitial Free (IF) steel microstructure are polished and analyzed using EBSP and Orientation Imaging Microscopy (OIM) technique. This enables to build a 3D finite element mesh which represents the actual grains arrangement. Then a 30 % reduction plane strain compression is applied on this mesh in order to capture the heterogeneous deformation of the aggregate. After deformation, many grains show large orientation spreads, and thus do not follow a Taylor type assumption. This computation also shows that the stored energy distribution depends on the chosen definition.
