This work focuses on grain boundaries as a prominent material defect type prone to void nucleation based upon experimental observations of predominantly intergranular void nucleation in this material. The SVEs are constructed to be statistically representative of larger volumes of material and are meshed such that mean and standard deviation of grain size and orientation information is reconstructed. The computational meshes feature hexahedral (brick) elements and smooth conformal grain boundaries where significant stress concentration is known to occur, a tail effect of interest in the extreme events process of dynamic ductile damage. An existing micromechanical crystallographic plasticity model shown to capture the single crystal behavior of BCC tantalum well is used to perform the polycrystal calculations. The model includes representation of the non-Schmid effect of non-planar screw dislocation kinetics in tantalum. A three-dimensional stress state time profile predicted by damage modeling of a flyer plate impact experiment is applied as boundary conditions to each SVE. Resulting grain boundary stress state statistics are strongly non-Gaussian. Significant structural evolution is observed within the compressive hold before unloading into tension in the stress profile. Strong angular dependence of grain boundary traction magnitude with shock direction is observed. Non-Schmid effects continue to suggest their influence on propensity of microstructural defect types to nucleate voids. A general void nucleation criterion is proposed using probability theory. The general framework is specified to polycrystalline BCC tantalum in the weak shock regime to include the SVE calculations and literature molecular dynamics calculations of grain boundary void nucleation strength. Probability density functions (PDFs) are used to describe the interaction between the local stress state heterogeneity and the distributed grain boundary void nucleation strength state. A causation entropy maximization procedure removes the requirement for ad hoc selection of a PDF functional form and provides a rigorous procedure for data-based PDF determination. The resulting physically informed PDF describes the spatial appearance frequency of nucleated voids as a function of applied macroscale pressure. Lower length scale physics are thus packaged in a precise and computationally efficient way to provide computational plasticity insight to macroscale dynamic ductile damage models.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Plasticity","volume":"188 ","pages":"Article 104318"},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143675306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nevertheless, alloys engineered for elevated strength commonly manifest unsustainable work hardening, ultimately leading to a decline in plasticity. Dual- or even multi-phase systems offer vast potential for novel microstructural engineering aimed at harmonizing these inversely related property requirements. Here, heterogeneous lamellar structure consisting of alternating austenite and ferrite lamellae is explored to decouple and leverage the distinct roles of individual phases in a dual-phase system. This phase-specific tailoring strategy meticulously manipulates intra-phase microstructure, and tunes the lamella thickness to promote both high initial strength and prolonged work hardening. The significantly enhanced strength benefits from pre-existing defects, interfaces strengthening and quasi isostrain deformation mode while high plasticity originates from relatively uniform strain partitioning between phases across a wide strain range achieved through exploiting various hardening components. For austenite, prolonged work hardening is achieved by sequential utilization of dislocation hardening followed by martensitic transformation hardening. Moreover, the martensite laths in favorable configuration along with the retained austenite contribute to retarding cracking. For ferrite, wide-range work hardening is ensured by expanding the potential for dislocation activities which lowers initial density and raises peak density through reducing the space in the thickness dimension. Such innovation elevates the traditionally inferior work-hardening capability of high-strength BCC structure to an exceptional level. The resultant alloy, while boosting nearly twice the yield strength of its conventional counterpart, exhibits a total elongation of 45 %. This strategy holds potential for broad application across dual- and multi-phase systems and proposes a new avenue for enhancing plasticity in high-strength lamellar-structured alloys.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":340,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Plasticity","volume":"188 ","pages":"Article 104317"},"PeriodicalIF":9.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143675304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
