Grain Initiation and Grain Refinement: An Overview

Metals, 2022
Heterogeneous nucleation and grain initiation are two different processes in early-stage solidification (ESS), although both are deterministic. Heterogeneous nucleation refers to the formation of a 2-dimensional (2D) nucleus (a crystal plane of the solid)

Competition for Nucleation and Grain Initiation during Solidification

Metals, 2022
Without the addition of any grain refiner, the inclusion particles in a melt will induce heterogeneous nucleation and grain initiation during the solidification of metallic materials.

An Analytical Study for Explosive Grain Initiation

Crystals
The most common form of solidification of metals is heterogeneous nucleation, in which the particles, regardless of whether they are endogenous or exogenous, nucleate the primary crystal phase, becoming solid crystal particles and, subsequently ...

Heterogeneous Nucleation and Grain Initiation on a Single Substrate

Metals, 2022
Recently, we have proposed a new framework for early stages solidification, in which heterogeneous nucleation and grain initiation have been treated as separate processes.

Efficiency of Sucrose to Starch Metabolism Is Related to the Initiation of Inferior Grain Filling in Large Panicle Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The poor grain-filling initiation often causes the poor development of inferior spikelets (IS) which limits the yield potential of large panicle rice (Oryza sativa L.). However, it remains unclear why IS often has poor grain-filling initiation.

The Inferior Grain Filling Initiation Promotes the Source Strength of Rice Leaves

Rice, 2023
Poor grain-filling initiation in inferior spikelets severely impedes rice yield improvement, while photo-assimilates from source leaves can greatly stimulate the initiation of inferior grain-filling (sink).

Statistical grain size effects in fretting crack initiation

Tribology International, 2017
A crystal plasticity computational framework is developed and validated to investigate the microstructure sensitivity of crack initiation in fretting. Randomly distributed microstructure geometries are incorporated into a partial-slip finite element fretting model.

Effect of ultrasonic peening treatment on the fatigue behaviors of a magnesium alloy up to very high cycle regime

Journal of Magnesium and Alloys, 2022
Ultrasonic fatigue tests are performed on a magnesium alloy with and without ultrasonic peening treatment (UPT). Surface enhancement layer leads to the complete change of crack initiation sites.

Effect of misorientation of grain boundaries on the discontinuous precipitates of Cu–Ni–Si alloy

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
In this study, the effects of differences in grain size, grain boundary type and misorientation on the initiation of discontinuous precipitates are investigated for the Cu–5Ni–1.25Si alloy.
