A phase field model of the effects of dislocation microstructure on grain boundary motion during recrystallization
Yufan Zhang, Michael Zaiser
The internal energy associated with the defect microstructure of strongly deformed crystals provides an important driving force for grain boundary motion during recrystallization.…

Continuum Dislocation Dynamics as a Phase Field Theory with Conserved Order Parameters
Yufan Zhang, Ronghai Wu, Michael Zaiser
The dynamics of dislocations can be formulated in terms of the evolution of continuous variables representing dislocation densities ('continuum dislocation dynamics'). We show for…
