The effect of voids on boundary migration during recrystallization in additive manufactured samples—a phase field study

Experimental results show that voids inside additive manufactured (i.e. 3D printed) materials are unavoidable. As such samples often post-printing annealed, it is thus of interest to understand how affect boundary migration. In this work, phase field simulations recrystallization carried out for systems containing and typical inhomogeneous microstructures. The simulation the significantly shape its migration kinetics during recrystallization. location in relation deformation microstructure furthermore found local not only importance optimizing annealing printed samples, but also understanding particle alloys.
