Abstract

A Multi-scale model coupling discrete dislocation dynamics with continuum plasticity and finite element analysis is used to study the self-stress field of geometrically necessary (dislocation) boundaries (GNBs). The results for a single GNB are presented here. The internal structure of the GNB is obtained from the Frank's formula using experimentally measured misorientation angle/axis pair as the input. Several different types of model boundary conditions (using FEA) are analyzed together with the effect of different parameters like the domain length and mesh sensitivity. It is shown that choosing the right boundary conditions for the FEA strongly affects the predicted internal stress fields of these dislocation boundaries, particularly the long-range effect.
