We developed a phase-field model to study the stress-driven grain boundary migration in elastically inhomogeneous polycrystalline materials with arbitrary elastic inhomogeneity and anisotropy. The dependence of stiffness tensor on orientation is taken into account, equilibrium equation solved using Fourier spectral iterative-perturbation method. studied planar curved boundaries under an applied stress. relation between velocity driving force found be linear steady-state regime. Our shows...

While nanocrystalline (NC) metals exhibit superior strength to conventional microcrystalline metals, their thermal instability has hampered application at high temperatures. Herein, two-dimensional (2D) boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS) are proposed as reinforcement enhance the well stability of NC Al. The pure Al was increased from 80 468 MPa by refining its grains ~600 ~40 nm, and it further enhanced 685 incorporating 2 vol% BNNS. Moreover, small amount BNNS found effectively suppress grain...

Second-phase particles are often employed to inhibit the grain growth of polycrystalline materials. We studied interaction between a second-phase particle and boundary using phase-field method. In particular, we determined magnitude pinning force exerted by on boundary. considered effect morphology examining several shapes including spherical, ellipsoidal cubic. The forces computed from were compared with available analytical theories for spherical shapes. derived an expression cubic...

In this paper, the dynamics of phase coarsening at ultrahigh volume fractions (0.9≤VV≤0.96) is first studied based on two-dimensional phase-field simulations by numerically solving time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau and Cahn–Hilliard equations. It shown that cubic average radius particles approximately proportional to time in good agreement with one experimental observations. The microstructural evolutions for different are shown. scaled particle size distribution as functions dispersoid...

We performed phase-field simulations to analyse the interaction of a migrating grain boundary with an evolving second-phase particle. It is found that depending on difference between interfacial energies particle–matrix interface for two orientations involved and driving force movement, particles particle size well above critical limit can dissolve due passage boundary.

Magnesium (Mg) has good physical properties including light weight, excellent specific strength and high stiffness, Mg is used in many fields. But current production methods of have disadvantages, such as the generation sulfur oxide chlorine gas. In this situation, The Korea Institute Geoscience Mineral Resources (KIGAM) developed a Molten Salt Electrolysis Using Liquid Metal Cathode (MSELMC) method to produce high-purity magnesium. MSE-LMC can obtain 99.998-99.999% highpurity magnesium by...
