Shear-Coupled Grain Growth Statistics
Caihao Qiu, David J. Srolovitz, Gregory S. Rohrer +2
Grain growth (GG), driven by grain boundary (GB) migration, is a fundamental mechanism of microstructural evolution in polycrystalline materials. GB migration is frequently accompa…

Why Grain Growth is Not Curvature Flow
Caihao Qiu, David J. Srolovitz, Gregory S. Rohrer +2
Grain growth in polycrystals is traditionally considered a capillarity-driven process, where grain boundaries (GBs) migrate toward their centers of curvature (i.e., mean curvature…

Accurate grain boundary plane distributions for textured microstructures from stereological analysis of orthogonal two-dimensional electron backscatter diffraction orientation maps
Martin Folwarczny, Ao Li, Rushvi Shah +7
We present a method for obtaining qualitatively accurate grain boundary plane distributions (GBPD) for textured microstructures using a stereological calculation applied to two-dim…
