| Abstract Scope |
Understanding the microstructure evolution during thermomechanical processing of magnesium alloys is crucial for enabling their use in automotive applications. We integrated the PRISMS-Plasticity and PRISMS-PF simulation tools, which are part of the open-source PRISMS software, to study the microstructure evolution during a plane strain compression testing condition and static recrystallization (SRX) in Mg-Zn-Ca alloy. In this integrated approach, we first obtain the deformed microstructure and stored energy distribution from the crystal plasticity finite element simulation using PRISMS-Plasticity. Then, the deformed microstructure and the stored energy are used to initialize the phase field simulation of SRX, conducted using PRISMS-PF. A stochastic model was used for seeding the recrystallized grains in SRX simulation. SRX kinetics and grain size evolution in the simulation results are compared with the experimental results. Finally, we discuss the effect of stored energy heterogeneity and grain impingement on the growth kinetics of individual recrystallized grains. |
