Grain Initiation and Grain Refinement: An Overview

open access: yesMetals, 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)

Heterogeneous Nucleation and Grain Initiation on a Single Substrate

open access: yesMetals, 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.

Competition for Nucleation and Grain Initiation during Solidification

open access: yesMetals, 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

open access: yesCrystals
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 ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

open access: yesRice, 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).

Altering tensile and crack initiation behavior in a metastable β titanium alloy via designing grain size and precipitates

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology
Microstructure can play a vital role in defining mechanical properties of metallic materials. To elucidate this correlation in the case of Ti–15Mo–3Nb–3Al-0.2Si (TB8) alloy, herein, we designed various microstructures via heat treatment exploring the ...

Influence of grain size and grain boundary misorientation on the fatigue crack initiation mechanisms of textured AZ31 Mg alloy [PDF]

open access: yesScripta Materialia, 2021
The deformation and crack initiation mechanisms were analyzed in a textured AZ31B-O Mg alloy subjected to fully-reversed, strain-controlled cyclic deformation along the rolling direction after 50 cycles (approximately 33% of the fatigue life).

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

open access: yesJournal 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.
