Mechanism for diffusion induced grain boundary migration

Reads0

TLDR
In this paper, the authors proposed a mechanism in which differences in the diffusion coefficients of the diffusing species along the grain boundary cause a self-sustaining climb of grain boundary dislocations and motion of their associated grain boundary steps.

Microstructure and hardness studies of Inconel 718 manufactured by selective laser melting before and after solution heat treatment

TL;DR: The microstructure of AM Inconel 718 in general and Selective Laser Melting (SLM) in particular is different from the material produced by conventional methods due to the rapid solidification process associated with the former as mentioned in this paper.

In situ TEM observations of fast grain-boundary motion in stressed nanocrystalline aluminum films

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that extensive grain-boundary migration occurs preferentially at crack tips and only in the presence of applied stress, and that the growth occurs in a faceted manner indicative of preferential boundaries.

Effect of grain size on mechanical properties of nanocrystalline materials

TL;DR: In this article, the possibility of a dislocation mechanism in the deformation process of nanocrystalline materials is reviewed and analyzed, by taking the anisotropic characteristic of crystallographic symmetry and different choices of critical shear strength into account, results in a reasonable limit in grain size for applying dislocation pile-up theory to nanocrystine materials.

Grain-boundary kinetics: A unified approach

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the GB kinetics literature is provided, and the authors draw comparisons from a wide swath of the extant experimental, simulation, and theoretical GB kinetic behavior literature.

Grain boundary diffusion mechanisms in metals

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed the current knowledge of the atomistic mechanisms responsible for grain boundary diffusion phenomena and concluded that the atomic migration occurs by a point defect exchange mechanism which, in at least the vast majority of boundaries in simple metals, most likely involves grain boundary vacancies.

Chemically induced grain boundary migration

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that gram boundary motion can be induced by changing the composition by means of grain boundary diffusion, and the experimental results can be used to evaluate rather directly the grain boundary diffusivity and mobility.

Diffusion induced grain boundary migration

TL;DR: This paper showed that grain boundaries and interphase boundaries provide high diffusivity paths in solids, but little bulk composition change can occur at temperatures where lattice diffusion is frozen out unless the boundaries migrate.

The effects on grain-boundary processes of the steps in the boundary plane associated with the cores of grain-boundary dislocations

TL;DR: The contribution of the associated steps to the properties of grain-boundary dislocations is investigated in this paper, where two methods of step-height determination are given and it is shown that the step height, like the Burgers vector, must be conserved during the reactions of grain boundaries, this is not always automatic and additional coherent steps must take part in some reactions.
