| Abstract Scope |
This work aims to develop a multiscale and multiphysics computational framework to reveal insight into the process-structure-property relationship in shear-assisted processing and extrusion (ShAPE) of nuclear cladding materials for applications in challenging environments. In the developed framework, ShAPE is simulated using meshfree smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to obtain thermomechanical responses at the macroscale and utilized to inform thermodynamic simulations at the mesoscale. The temperature and strain data predicted by the SPH model serve as inputs to a mesoscale phase field and crystal plasticity (PF-CP) coupled model to simulate microstructure and texture evolutions, as well as the processed material residual properties. Ultimately, the multiscale SPH-PF-CP model will be validated with experimental data and used to establish process-structure-property relationships. The multi scale framework will inform optimization of ShAPE processing parameters to achieve desired microstructures for various types of high entropy alloys and oxide dispersion-strengthened steels. |
