Application to Welding: In order to model solidification of the weld pool using a granular approach, a number of modifications are required to the components outlined above.
A few columnar grains are also shown in (c) to highlight the difference between two major kinds of grains.
Welding microstructure produced using the improved algorithm: (a) equiaxed grains in the base metal; (b) columnar grains; (c) equiaxed grains at the weld center; (d) assembled image.
It is also assumed that the grain sizes for the equiaxed grains near the base metal, the columnar grains and the equiaxed grains at the center of this weld are 50, 200, and 30 µm.
As each grain contains on average 60 elements, and the simulation consists of 3800 grains, there will be a large number of liquid channels to evaluate.

Fig. 1 XRD pattern of TiC-TiB2 composite prepared in the experiment
FESEM images and EDS results showed that a large number of randomly-orientated, fine TiB2 platelets were uniformly embedded in the irregular TiC grains, and Cr metallic phases located between TiC crystals and TiB2 crystals, moreover, a few of α-Al2O3 inclusions were also observed, as shown by the isolated black particles in Fig. 2, and some largeα-Al2O3 inclusions measured about 5 μm in diameter at surface area of the samples were observed in Fig. 3 especially.
Owing to the face-centered cubic structure, a lot of slip system exist in TiC crystal in room temperature, so the crack develop easily when the crack contact the TiC grain [5].
The compressive stress will release near the crack tip as soon as the crack contact the TiB2 grain.
However, when the crack meets the coarsened TiC grains and Al2O3 inclusions, transgranular fracture is presented, as shown by the arrow C and arrow D in Fig. 8.
XRD, FESEM results showed that the TiC-TiB2 ceramic was mainly composed of a large number of fine TiB2 platelets, irregular TiC grains, a few Cr-Al metallic phases and a few of isolated irregular α-Al2O3 inclusions.

In contrast, in the samples with high ductility, larger NbC precipitates with lower number densities are observed.
BN precipitates develop number densities of approx. 1012 m-3.
Also, the relatively small number density of 1014 particles per m3 gives a number of 10-4 particles per µm3, which strongly decreases the chance of detecting any such precipitates in TEM.
Finally, AlN tends to precipitate on austenite grain boundaries.
Grant Agreement number: RFSR-CT-2011-00008.

Austenitic grain pattern is observed with Olympus GX71 optical microscope.
Figure 5 shows that the original grain in the deformed structure is obviously stretched at the strain rate of 10s-1, grain boundary suffers serious fragmentation, and a small amount of dynamic recrystallization grains appear near the triple junction and grain boundary, the grain size being smaller, and the amount of cores decreasing.
Compared with the deformed structures at strain rate of 10s-1 as shown in Figure 5, the dynamic recrystallization area of the deformed structures at strain rate of 1s-1 expands, and the original grain is gradually replaced by dynamic recrystallization grain with the size of newly generated grain enlarging and the number of cores decreasing.
The dynamic recrystallization behavior occurs more fully in the deformation organization, and the grain boundaries of the stretched original grains become basically obscure, larger grains of dynamic recrystallization being formed in the boundary zone, and being distributed in a homogeneous manner as shown in Figure 6.
Meanwhile the dynamic recrystallization is not complete under higher strain rate with newly generated grains mainly concentrated in the area close to the grain boundary of the stretched original grains, the proportion of which being low and the distribution of which being uneven.

After rolling,
Al8Cu4Er phase could be fragmentated into dispersed particle which leaded to an increase of the
grain boundary strengthening .
Some coarse bright particles were present in grain-boundary eutectic structure.
After hot rolling , Al8Cu4Er particles were crushed up along with the grain boundary (Fig.5b) .
The precipitation of Ω phase also includes the nucleation and coarsening .The number of nucleation site and coarsening force affect the distribution and the size of Ω precipitate .
As discussed above , addition of Er in alloy decreased the number of Ag/Mg co-clusters.

For the simulation of martensite plates, 2 austenite grains are grown on a grid with 80 martensite nuclei placed on the boundaries of the austenite grains.
The computational cost is only dependent on the size of the domain and not the number of grains of martensite, bainite or austenite.
Each grain is assigned a global ID in order to distinguish it from other grains.
The treatment involving global IDs enables the simulation of two or more grains in close proximity without the model being confused as to the identity of each grain.

The maximum number of passes by routes A, Bc, and C was N = 25, which corresponds to a
true deformation ε ~ 29.
The distributions of the grain sizes and the grain boundary misorientations were determined using Orientation Imaging Microscopy (OIM).
Results and discussion The strength characteristics upon ECAP reach a constant level at a number of passes N = 5 and then do not change until N = 25 (Fig.1a).
The samples deformed by route Bc to N = 15 and N = 25 exhibit a small number of relatively coarser grains, of 1-1.5 µm in size.
