Phase-field model during static recrystallization based on crystal-plasticity theory

A numerical model and computational procedure for static recrystallization are developed using a phase-field method coupled with crystal-plasticity theory. In this model, first, the microstructure and dislocation density during the deformation process of a polycrystalline metal are simulated using a finite element method based on strain-gradient crystal-plasticity theory. Second, the calculated data are mapped onto the regular grids used in the...
