Simulation model Grain growth model.
Thus a relation can be obtained between grain size (Lmax) at the highest sintering pressure, σmax, and grain size (Lσ) at an arbitrary sintering pressure σ: (7) where kP is pressure factor which reflects the possibility of grain growth.
Lattice sites having the identical Q number are considered as a grain, and a grain boundary segment is defined to lie between sites of different Q number.
In order to study the effect of sintering pressure on microstructure evolution, the pressure factor, kp, is coupled into MC Potts model, the probability of switching the orientation number at a lattice site is determined by evaluating the energy change ΔE [8] during reorientation.
It can be found that the mean grain size of matrix phase increases with an increment in sintering pressure in the same simulation time, and the number of nano-particles entrapped into matrix grains increases accordingly, indicating that higher sintering pressure is beneficial to grain growth and the formation of intragranular-type microstructure.

This paper considers the oxidation of a number of nickel containing Fe based alloys of varying compositions, including stainless steel.
This makes the structure of the scale more complex as the number of phases present increases.
Although this Ni seems to be segregated to grain boundary regions, closer examination (Fig. 3) revealed that the Ni is located in regions adjacent to the grain boundaries.
It was found that, as expected, the internal oxide is situated at the high angle grain boundaries and not the twin boundaries, which are clearly visible within the grains shown in the IQ map.
Iron from the substrate below the nickel-enriched layer and in the area surrounding the grain boundary will diffuse outwards preferentially along grain boundaries where it will meet inwardly diffusing oxygen.

When a grain-boundary is exposed to a high, completely elastic mechanical stress σ, an embrittling species can penetrate it by grain-boundary diffusion.
On the other hand, if the crack tip iss surrounded by a high number of CSL grain boundaries, it should be possible to reduce the susceptibility to cracking by dynamic embrittlement [8,13].
As represented in the crack velocity vs. stress-intensity factor plot in Fig. 7b, crack propagation along a random high-angle grain ductile-fractured grain boundary 10µm boundary is by two orders of magnitude faster than along a special symmetrical Σ5 grain boundary.
Under the influence of a high elastic tensile stress acting normal to grain-boundary planes, an embrittling species can diffuse into the grain boundaries and lower the interfacial cohesion.
Small-angle grain boundaries or special grain boundaries with a high fraction of coincident lattice sites between the neighboring grains seem to exhibit a particularly low diffusivity of the embrittling element; i.e., they have a high resistance to dynamic embrittlement.

The results show that the yield strength of hot-rolled ribbed wire rod is 510MPa, the tensile strength is 622MPa, and the elongation is 23.35%, but the content of Mn can be decreased 58.13%, the content of Si can be decreased 67.50% compared with the national standard upper limit value in HRB400; The grain size scale of edge microstructure is 9.0 at the 1# flying shear in the rolling process, the grain size scale of core microstructure is 8.5, and the edge microstructure of hot-rolled ribbed wire rod after rolling is the tempered sorbite, the grain size scale is 13.5, the core microstructure is the ferrite-pearlite, the grain size scale is 12.0, and the depth of hardening is 0.50mm.
Along with the rapid development of national economy, the consumption of Hot-rolled ribbed wire rod has increased sharply, and the requirements of comprehensive performance are also more and more high[4-5], but the energy and transportation resources are limited in China, so it can’t meet the dramatic growth of steel production capacity, we must purchase a large number of foreign resources, so it lead to the global steel production of raw material supply tension, and the prices are soaring, which will directly endanger the health of the steel industry sustainable development.

The number of hydrogen atoms in the NDSR or HLSAD, per the dislocation length of b, can be described [2] as nH⊥ ≈ (CΣ - C) / ρ⊥ b2
In this connection, it ought to be emphasized that in a number of works, for instance [18,22,41, 42] some inadequate concept is used.
For a number of cases, this results [1] in reasonable values of ∆HB ≈ 40-20 kJ mol-1 and, correspondingly, reasonable values of K⊥ (increasing with reduction of CΣ).

The varistor voltage increases with increasing number of ZnO grain boundaries between the electrodes.
Therefore, to fabricate varistors with low breakdown voltages, it is necessary to reduce the number of ZnO grain boundaries between the electrodes.
Adding only Ba to Bi-based ZnO varistors promotes grain growth, which enables large ZnO grains to be obtained [2].
This is because compounds containing both Ba and Mn do not form at grain boundaries between ZnO grains.
Excess Zn2+ ions at interstitial sites in ZnO grains have been reported to diffuse from inside the grains to the grain boundaries during annealing at approximately 700 °C [7].

The average grain size, grain size distribution and volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization were taken into account.
Lower dislocation density and distortion energy with smaller deformation leads to a lower number of nucleation on the blade rabbet.
However, the velocity of nucleation is faster compared with that of grain growth so that the grain is finer.
The grain size number of dynamic recrystallization in the middle of blade body is 9~10 and the grain size number in the leading and back edge of blade body is 10~11.
The size number of recrystallized grains in the blade rabbet and body are 8 and 9~10 respectively according to the experimental data.

The samples were pressed for various numbers of passes up to a maximum of 24 corresponding to a maximum imposed strain of ~24.
The retention of a constant grain size with increasing numbers of passes is consistent with a model for grain refinement in ECAP [19].
The grains were essentially equiaxed after 4 or more passes although a slightly more uniform distribution of the Zn-rich and Al-rich phases was achieved after pressing through large numbers of passes.
N is number of ECAP passes.
Grain refinement in both alloys showed saturation after 4 passes of ECAP. 2.
