Abstract A continuum model of dislocation transport incorporating grain boundary transmission was developed within a dislocation-based crystal plasticity framework, which was then adopted to study the deformation mechanisms of gradient-structured material and bimodal-grained material. The nonlocal nature of the model on the slip system level enables the direct investigation of strain gradient effects caused by internal deformation heterogeneities. Furthermore, the interaction between dislocations and grain boundaries leads to the formation of pileups near grain boundaries, which is key to studying the grain size effects in polycrystals. Finite element implementation of the model for polycrystals with different… More >
