The Issue of Grain Size Distribution Using Mean Field Models for Dynamic and Post-Dynamic Recrystallization

Article Preview

Abstract:

A mean field model for discontinuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) has been developed and chained with a post-dynamic recrystallization (PDRX) model to predict transient and steady-state flow stresses and average grain sizes. Numerical results are compared with experimental data obtained on a 304L stainless steel yielding to a good agreement in terms of average grain size. However an unrealistic grain-size distribution is observed using DDRX, which affects results of the PDRX model. This result is discussed with respect to the fundamental equations of DDRX.
