Stress Distributions in Polycrystalline Alloys
Abstract
Funds are provided to investigate and model the polycrystalline deformation of metals.Overall MeritsThe investigators have world-class reputations in their respective areas in the investigation. The proposed approach addresses directly a principal need in the analysis of dislocation-based plasticity in metals, that is important to enable us to model accurately the rare-events and non-localized collective phenomena that initiate failure in metals. These are required to enable the better design on alloys for critical applications such as fatigue and fracture. This will also forward our needs for the quantification of microstructures to enable better quantitative design. Based on this, the Naval Materials Division recommends support for the project in the amount requested.
