PRISMS-Plasticity: An open-source crystal plasticity finite element software
|
BCC_Polycrystal_Tension:
In this example, the capability of the PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE software to model BCC polycrystalline samples is demonstrated. To do so, the response of a polycrystalline sample of the β titanium alloy Timetal 21S during uniaxial tension is modeled. The results can be compared to simulation results reported by Qidwai et al. (2009).
FCC_Polycrystal_NeperConformingMesh:
Here, the PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE software is used to replicate the results presented by Anand and Kothari (1996) for polycrystalline OFHC copper with initial random orientations during a compression experiment. A polycrystalline copper sample consists of 200 randomly oriented grains is generated using Neper. The conforming FE discretization was generated from the Neper output by converting the tetrahedral elements to hexahedral elements using the tet-to-hex converter which is included as a utility software within the PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE code.
FCC_Polycrystal_NeperNonConformingMesh:
Here, the PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE software is used to replicate the results presented by Anand and Kothari (1996) for polycrystalline OFHC copper with initial random orientations during a compression experiment. A polycrystalline copper sample consists of 200 randomly oriented grains is generated using Neper. The nonconforming FE discretization with a regular 32×32×32 mesh was generated to model the polycrystalline sample.
FCC_Polycrystal_RandomOrientationBlock:
Here, the PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE software is used to replicate the results presented by Anand and Kothari (1996) for polycrystalline OFHC copper with initial random orientations during a compression experiment. the isotropic polycrystalline sample is modeled as an aggregate of 400 single crystals with random orientations, with each grain being modeled by a single eight-node linear hexahedral element. Accordingly, a 5×8×10 FE cubic mesh is generated in the x, y, and z directions, which each element represents a single grain.
HCP_Polycrystal_Compression:
The twinning model used in PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE, simulation results are compared against the experimental results during uniaxial compression test reported by Wu (2009) for extruded Mg alloy ZK60A sample at room temperature. The polycrystalline sample is modeled as an aggregate of 1080 single crystals, which reproduces the extruded sample, each grain being modeled by a single eight-node linear hexahedral element. Accordingly, an 8×9×15 FE cubic mesh is generated in the x, y, and z directions, in which each element represents a single grain.

Extension twinning in rolled Mg alloy WE43
|
The present work investigates the extension twinning in rolled Mg alloy WE43 using a combination of scanning electron microscopy with digital image correlation (SEM-DIC) and crystal plasticity finite element (CPFE) simulation. Rolled Mg alloy WE43 was subjected to in-situ uniaxial compression along its rolling direction. Full-field displacement maps were gathered using SEM-DIC during load pauses, and twin variant maps were obtained from these displacements using post-processing analysis. CPFE was used to investigate the experimental results via a multi-scale twinning model developed for HCP polycrystals. In addition to stress-strain curves, crystal plasticity parameters were calibrated using the variation of twin area versus the applied strain to accurately capture the twinning parameters. A new SEM-DIC pipeline was also developed for the open-source PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE software that can read in the precise deformation map generated by SEM-DIC experiment as an input boundary condition for the finite element simulation and conduct the CPFE simulation. It is shown that CPFE can successfully capture the macroscopic response and model both strain and twin area fraction maps. However, the model cannot capture sharp strain localization and twinning bands, instead it smears certain areas of localizations. |

PRISMS-Plasticity TM: An open-source rapid texture evolution analysis pipeline
|
The data base includes the input files for four different types of simulation. The first example is the evolution of texture during uniaxial compression of a polycrystalline OFHC copper sample with initial random texture. In the second example, the effect of the addition of rare earth elements to Mg is investigated by simulating the texture evolution in Mg-3Y alloy during rolling. The importance of twinning on the texture evolution of Mg alloys is highlighted in a third example, in which the evolution of texture in extruded Mg alloy ZK60A sample is captured during the uniaxial compression along the extrusion direction. Finally, the simulation inputs to generate results for "Application to machine learning frameworks" is presented. Also, the Jupyter Notebook to generate the results for Machine learning applications are also included. |

Deformation twinning and detwinning in extruded Mg-4Al
|
Deformation twinning and detwinning in extruded Mg-4Al were investigated using in-situ SEM-DIC experiments and crystal plasticity finite element (CPFE) simulation. In this study, the in-situ SEM-DIC method was used to provide a unique set of data including twin/detwin characteristics and twin area fraction in addition to strain maps. A statistical analysis of the activation of twin variants and twin area fraction during both twinning and detwinning was conducted. A strong correlation was found between twin growth/shrinkage and the Schmid Factor (SF) for individual twin variants Higher twin SF during loading and unloading led to higher twin growth and shrinkage, respectively. However, after the applied compressive strain was removed, the pattern of the twin area fractions of the residual twin variants versus their nominal SFs did not follow the trend observed at the maximum compressive strain. Using a systematic methodology and an advanced twin/detwin model, the PRISMS-Plasticity CPFE simulation was calibrated using experimentally determined stress versus strain and twin area fraction versus strain information. A comprehensive evaluation of the CPFE model was conducted to determine its ability to capture the statistics of twin variants activation and twin area fraction. CPFE accurately captured the statistical aspects of both twinning and detwinning. It also predicted the first dominant twin variant for 47.5% of the grains and at least one of the two dominant twin variants for 80% of the grains at maximum compressive strain. |

Effects of Zn and Ca on deformation texture evolution of Mg-Zn-Ca alloys at elevated temperatures
|
This work utilized crystal plasticity simulations and experimental thermo-mechanical processing to examine how Zn and Ca content affects texture evolution in Mg-Zn-Ca alloys during simulated hot rolling. Four different compositions were studied: unalloyed Mg and three Mg alloys of ZX0p50 (Mg- 0.5 wt% Zn- 0.1 wt% Ca), ZX30 (Mg-3 wt% Zn- 0.1 wt% Ca), and ZX31 (Mg-3 wt% Zn- 0.3 wt% Ca). Multi-pass Gleeble experiments simulated hot rolling using plane strain conditions.
The paper associated with this dataset also utlizes the following samples from the dataset titled: "Coupling thermomechanical processing and alloy design to improve textures in Mg-Zn-Ca sheet alloys" <br>
