Journal ArticleDOI
A self-consistent anisotropic approach for the simulation of plastic deformation and texture development of polycrystals : application to zirconium alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, a visco-plastic self-consistent (VPSC) anisotropic approach for modeling the plastic deformation of polycrystals, together with a thorough discussion of the assumptions involved and the range of application of such approach is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of texture simulation to understanding mechanical behavior of Mg and solid solution alloys containing Li or Y
TL;DR: In this paper, the viscoplastic self-consistent model was used to interpret differences in the mechanical behavior of hexagonal close packed magnesium alloys, showing that the plane strain compression textures of the alloys showed an increasing tendency for the basal poles to rotate away from the normal direction towards the rolling direction.
Book
Texture and Anisotropy: Preferred Orientations in Polycrystals and their Effect on Materials Properties
TL;DR: Mecking et al. as mentioned in this paper described the representation of orientations and textures of textured polycrystals, and showed the elastic inclusion problem can be solved with a texture model.
Journal ArticleDOI
A model for texture development dominated by deformation twinning: Application to zirconium alloys
TL;DR: In this paper, a volume fraction transfer (VFT) scheme is proposed for grain reorientation due to twinning, which is also applied to the slip modes of Zr and Zr alloys, and a comparison of various predicted and experimental textures leads to the conclusion that twinning must be controlling texture development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the effect of twinning and detwinning during strain-path changes of magnesium alloy AZ31
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the twins as barriers to dislocations is explicitly incorporated into the hardening description of slip deformation via a directional Hall-Petch mechanism.
