Quantitative Evaluation of Deformation Twinning Behavior in Polycrystalline Pure Magnesium

Article Preview

Abstract:

A crystal plasticity analysis of polycrystalline pure magnesium is conducted to investigate deformation twinning behavior at the crystal grain scale. A dominant factor in the onset of deformation twinning is the resolved shear stress on a twinning system. More than one twin system may simultaneously be activated in a crystal grain, resulting from inhomogeneous stress distribution caused by constraints imposed by neighboring grains. In this study, a pure magnesium polycrystal is modeled using a fine finite element mesh and analyzed using the crystal plasticity model involving deformation twinning. The evolution of deformation twinning at the crystalline scale is numerically investigated, and the present approach demonstrates that two or more twinning systems are be activated in a single crystal grain because of the strong inhomogeneity in the grain.
