Abstract: | The deformation in polycrystals is often heterogenous, e.g. due to grain size dependent hardening. In a semi-analytical representative volume element (RVE), a log-normal distributed grain size is assumed together with a grain size dependent local plastic behavior. The numerical results are well approximated by a simple analytical expression. The effect of the homogenization comparison stiffness on the transient behaviour is explained using a simplified localization equation. (© 2013 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) |
