Deformation of polycrystalline materials induce intra–granular, inter–granular and trans–granular deformation localization which results in spatially heterogeneous strain and stress distribution affecting the plasticity, damage and fracture of the material. Inter–granular localization is the most common mechanism considering the grain boundaries are natural locations triggering accumulation of the plastic slip and the geometrically necessary dislocations which accommodate the gradients of the inhomogeneous plastic strain. In this context the interactions between the dislocations and the grain boundaries play crucial role in the plastic deformation of metallic materials. However the representation of complex grain boundary-dislocation slip interaction mechanisms such as dislocation transmission, emission and dissociation of dislocations within the grain boundary is generally missing in plasticity models. It is obviously computationally not efficient to incorporate these dislocation mechanisms at nano–micro levels into the plasticity models, yet it is essential to include the coarse–grained representation due to their strong influence on the hardening of the materials. This issue has been a challenge and a complete understanding of this phenomenon and its macroscopic effects is still not at reach and the necessary input for computational models is still subject of ongoing discussions. This paper focuses on the continuum scale modeling of dislocation–grain boundary interactions and enriches a particular strain gradient crystal plasticity formulation (convex counter–part of [1] and [2] by incorporating explicitly the effect of grain boundaries on the plastic slip evolution. Within the framework of continuum thermodynamics, a consistent extension of the model is presented and a potential type non–dissipative grain boundary description in terms of grain boundary Burgers tensor (see e.g. [3]) is proposed. The 2D work in [4] has been extended to 3D through a fully coupled finite element solution algorithm which considers both the displacement and plastic slips as primary variables. For the treatment of grain boundaries an interface element is formulated. The proposed formulation is capable of capturing the effect of misorientation of neighboring grains and the orientation of the grain boundaries on slip evolution in a natural way, as demonstrated by bi–crystal specimen examples.

Strain gradient crystal plasticity: Intergranular microstructure formation
Özdemir, İzzet; Yalçınkaya, Tuncay (Springer International Publishing, 2016-01-01)
This chapter addresses the formation and evolution of inhomogeneous plastic deformation field between grains in polycrystalline metals by focusing on continuum scale modeling of dislocation-grain boundary interactions within a strain gradient crystal plasticity (SGCP) framework. Thermodynamically consistent extension of a particular strain gradient plasticity model, addressed previously (see also, e.g., Yalcinkaya et al, J Mech Phys Solids 59:1-17, 2011), is presented which incorporates the effect of grain ...
Plastic slip patterns through rate-independent and rate-dependent plasticity
Lancioni, Giovanni; Yalçınkaya, Tuncay (2014-05-09)
Plastic deformation induces various types of dislocation microstructures at different length scales, which eventually results in a heterogeneous deformation field in metallic materials. Development of such structures manifests themselves as macroscopic hardening/softening response and plastic anisotropy during strain path changes, which is often observed during forming processes. In this paper we present two different non-local plasticity models based on non-convex potentials to simulate the intrinsic rate-...
MULTI-SCALE CHARACTERIZATION OF DEFORMATION IN ALUMINUM
Güler, Baran; Efe, Mert (2018-06-22)
Materials with deformation behavior sensitive to their microstructure may need deformation analysis at multiple scales to establish the relationship between the microstructure and response to deformation processing. In this work, we use in-plane biaxial test (cruciform) to measure the macro- and microstructure-scale mechanical behavior of a 6061-T6 aluminum alloy at various strain paths. We report flow curves, forming and fracture limits as examples to the macromechanical behavior. As an alternative to the ...
Micromechanical Modelling of Size Effects in Microforming
Yalçınkaya, Tuncay; SIMONOVSKI, IGOR; ÖZDEMİR, İZZET (2017-09-01)
This paper deals with the micromechanical modelling of the size dependent mechanical response of polycrystalline metallic materials at micron scale through a strain gradient crystal plasticity framework. The model is implemented into a Finite Element software as a coupled implicit user element subroutine where the plastic slip and displacement fields are taken as global variables. Uniaxial tensile tests are conducted for microstructures having different number of grains with random orientations in plane str...
Three Dimensional Grain Boundary Modeling in Polycrystalline Plasticity
Yalçınkaya, Tuncay; Firat, Ali Osman (2018-04-25)
At grain scale, polycrystalline materials develop heterogeneous plastic deformation fields, localizations and stress concentrations due to variation of grain orientations, geometries and defects. Development of inter-granular stresses due to misorientation are crucial for a range of grain boundary (GB) related failure mechanisms, such as stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and fatigue cracking. Local crystal plasticity finite element modelling of polycrystalline metals at micron scale results in stress jumps at...
