Monte Carlo Simulation of Recrystallization with a New Mesoscopic Stored Energy Distribution Model

Modeling and Simulation of Steel Rolling with Microstructure Evolution: An Overview

“…Henceforth, numerous studies related to cold rolling focus on the evolution of microstructure through the usage of integrated models such as the MC-CP, CA-CP, PF-CP models. [51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59] In the following subchapters, recent research on the development of microstructure models for rolling simulation is presented with some specific examples.…”

“…The models can capture detailed microstructural evolutions and the mechanical properties, such as grain size and textural evolution. [31,36,38,[50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59] The physically based computational models consider the dynamic microstructural evolutions at various temperatures and plastic deformations, resulting in the prediction of more precise mechanical properties of rolled products. The models are based on the early works of Sellars et al, incorporating dislocation dynamics, grain nucleation, and other microstructural evolution-related factors, alongside those considered in the empirical models.…”

Modeling the Microstructural Evolution During Constrained Sintering

“…The coupling between the kMC and the FEM must go both ways; that is, the microstructure (in the kMC model) must evolve in response to a stress field, and the stress field must be calculated due to microstructural events. Coupling a kMC model with a FEM for materials processes has previously been used for studying recrystallization in metals, where the FEM calculates deformation of a sample, while the Monte Carlo model simulates grain growth . Using voxel data obtained from, for example, a kMC sintering model, a method has also been developed that uses a finite element approach to determine, for example, tensile stress–strain curves due to failure and damage .…”
