Nucleation and growth of cube-oriented recrystallized grains in an aluminum single crystal of an s-orientation

Effect of ball size on steady state of aluminum powder and efficiency of impacts during milling

“…Evolution of (110) component has also been observed in simple compression of polycrystalline aluminum samples [37]. Moreover, stability and improvement of cube texture (100) b001N have been recognized for deformation of polycrystalline aluminum samples [38][39][40]. Further milling up to 4 h decreases the fraction of the (110) and (100) fiber components and recovers the fraction of (111), which is the reason for the random texture of the 4 h milled particle ( Fig.…”

In-situ annealing and computation study of cube texture development in a commercial aluminum alloy

“…In many cases the cube component is seriously underestimated which gives rise to the supposition that there are cube nucleation sites besides the well-known cube bands. Indeed, a detailed pole figure analysis of heavily deformed aluminum single crystals [19,20] indicated that the S-orientation may eventually rotate into the cube orientation and thus provide recrystallization nuclei with cube orientation. Also, deformation simulations with the crystal plasticity finite element method (CPFEM) of a grain assembly comprising symmetrically equivalent Sorientations indicated the development a of cube oriented volume at the grain boundaries [21].…”

“…Dillamore and Katoh explained the formation of the cube orientation in terms of transition bands formed due to divergent lattice rotations of cube oriented grains caused by different combinations of slip systems [18]. Kamijo et al reported the formation of a {001}<100> orientation during rolling of an aluminum single crystal with S-orientation and the importance of such regions for the nucleation of cube RX grains [19,20]. Their findings were supported by finite-element model (FEM) simulations of Beaudoin et al [21], who found that orientations close to cube would develop in highly strained regions where complimentary S-orientations meet.…”

Evolution of recrystallization texture from aluminum sheet cold rolled under unlubricated condition

“…[19] Recently, a few studies have focused on whether the shear texture or its recrystallization texture can improve the formability of aluminum sheets. [20,21] The recrystallization texture evolution from the specimens with the shear texture has been studied by Dons and Nes, [22] Major, [23] and Kamijo et al [20,24] Dons and Nes presumed that the shear texture might change into weak {001}͗110͘ texture, whereas Major [23] and Kamijo et al [24] found the retention of the shear texture during recrystallization and its subsequent development of the cube texture. Therefore, the recrystallization texture of the shear texture has not yet been fully understood.…”
