Impact of grain boundary character on grain boundary kinetics

Zeitschrift für Metallkunde, 2003
Abstract The current research on grain boundary dynamics in metals is reviewed. The boundary dynamics, i. e., the boundary reaction to applied forces, is strongly dependent on the grain boundary character, which is commonly reduced to the orientation relationship between adjacent grains and impurity segregation at the boundary.

The role of grain boundary dislocations in grain boundary sliding

Acta Metallurgica, 1973
Abstract Dislocation models for grain boundary sliding have generally invoked lattice dislocations moving along the boundary as the basic mode of deformation. This paper considers the possibility of structural dislocations accounting for the same phenomenon.

Role of grain boundary plane in grain boundary engineering

Materials Science and Technology, 2010
There is an increasing amount of interest in grain boundary engineering (GBE) to improve the properties of the grain boundary network. In general, research has concentrated on use of a grain boundary misorientation based approach, namely, the coincidence site lattice (CSL), to categorise ‘special’ boundaries.

Grain Boundary Network: Grain Boundary Texture

2012
If we try to understand the role of grain boundary networks in polycrystal properties, in order to promote special behaviours of the material, the first task is to establish then to control the grain boundary organization in that network. This is the objective of numerous studies dealing with the determination of the grain boundary characteristic ...

Instability of grain boundary grooves due to equilibrium grain boundary diffusion

Acta Metallurgica et Materialia, 1991
Abstract All previous theoretical investigations on grain boundary grooving are based on the assumption, that the grain boundary does not participate in the material transport. In the present paper it is shown theoretically and experimentally for the first time, that by removing this restriction one obtains completely different groove profiles in ...

Viscous grain-boundary sliding and grain rotation accommodated by grain-boundary diffusion

Acta Materialia, 2005
When the sliding of a viscous grain boundary is accommodated by grain-boundary diffusion, we evaluate the sliding rate and the stress distribution on the boundary, by employing the energy-balance method developed by Mori et al. [Mori T, Nakasone Y, Taya M, Wakashima K. Phil Mag Lett 1997;75:359 and Mori T, Koda M, Monzen R, Mura T.

Grain Boundary Segregation. Grain Boundary Diffusion

1985
In polycrystalline materials, grain boundaries differ from the monocrystalline bulk by : i) their structure, ii) their electronic properties, iii) their chemical composition, iv) the atomic mobility of all the species.

Grains, grain boundaries and interfaces

2004
The topic of grains and grain houndaries is extremely vast and covers many different concepts, involving not only the associated microstructural features, hut also the effects on material characteristics such as corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.

On the chemistry of grain boundary segregation and grain boundary fracture

Metallurgical Transactions A, 1990
This paper considers the problem of impurity segregation in metals and the effect of these impurities on grain boundary cohesion. The primary goal of this paper is to provide a physical model that will allow us to think about these two processes. We describe both of them in chemical terms.

The Elimination of Grains and Grain Boundaries in Grain Growth

Interface Science, 1997
The topological changes that occur during coarsening of 2D and 3Dcellular structures, such as polycrystals, areinvestigated. Particular attention is given to the elimination ofgrain boundaries and grains with more than the minimum number oftopological elements.
