Grain boundary planes: New dimensions in the grain boundary character distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
The five parameter grain boundary character distribution quantifies the relative areas of different types of grain boundaries, distinguished by their lattice misorientation and grain boundary plane orientation. The viewpoint presented in this paper is that this distribution is a sensitive metric of polycrystalline structure that can be related to macroscopic properties. To demonstrate the influence of the grain boundary character distribution on macroscopic properties, the stored elastic energy is calculated in model microstructures. 2005 Acta Materialia Inc.

The Distribution of Grain Boundary Planes in Interstitial Free Steel
The grain boundary character distribution in a commercial IF steel has been measured as a function of lattice misorientation and boundary plane orientation. The grain boundary plane distribution revealed a relatively low anisotropy with a tendency for grain boundaries to terminate on low index planes having relatively low surface energy and large interplanar spacings. Although the most common g...
متن کاملFive-Parameter Grain Boundary Character Distribution in Fe-1%Si
The grain boundary character distribution in an Fe-1%Si steel has been measured as a function of lattice misorientation and boundary plane orientation. There is a weak texture in the space of grain boundary planes that favors the {110} orientation. At specific misorientations, the anisotropy is larger. For example, when the lattice misorientation is 60° around [111], symmetric tilt boundaries c...
متن کاملDeriving grain boundary character distributions and relative grain boundary energies from three-dimensional EBSD data
Three-dimensional electron backscatter diffraction data, obtained by serial sectioning a nickel– base superalloy, has been analysed to measure the geometric arrangement of grain boundary planes at triple junctions. This information has been used to calculate the grain boundary character distribution (GBCD) and the grain boundary energy distribution (GBED). The twin content from the three-dimens...
متن کاملCrystallographic Distribution of Internal Interfaces in Spinel Polycrystals
Measurements of the grain boundary character distribution in MgAl2O4 (spinel) as a function of lattice misorientation and boundary plane orientation show that at all misorientations, grain boundaries are most frequently terminated on {111} planes. Boundaries with {111} orientations are observed 2.5 times more frequently than boundaries with {100} orientations. Furthermore, the most common bound...
متن کاملDistribution of Grain Boundaries in Aluminum as a Function of Five Macroscopic Parameters
The grain boundary character distribution in commercially pure Al has been measured as a function of lattice misorientation and boundary plane orientation. The results demonstrate a tendency to terminate grain boundaries on low index planes with relatively low surface energies and large interplanar spacings. The most frequently observed grain boundary plane orientation is (111). However, there ...
