Strain incompatibility and its influence on grain coarsening during cyclic deformation of ARB copper
Bibliographic record
Abstract
It is well known that the characteristic length scale in ultra-fine grained and nanocrystalline metals has a significant effect on the mechanical behaviour. The inhibited ability to accommodate imposed strain with conventional dislocation mechanism has led to the activation of unconventional deformation mechanisms. For one, grain coarsening at shear bands has been observed to occur within metals with sub-micron grain size upon cyclic deformation. Such grain coarsening is often linked to the observed cyclic softening behaviour. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between strain localisation associated with shear banding and the observed deformation-induced grain coarsening in ultra-fine grained metals. The investigation was carried out using ultra-fine grained, oxygen-free high conductivity copper processed by accumulative roll-bonding. A close relationship between strain localisation and deformation-induced grain coarsening was revealed. As strain localisation is not only found at shear bands, but also at other places whereby heterogeneous microstructure or geometric discontinuity is present, hence the present study bears a general significance. Such strain localisation sites may also include a hard constituent embedded in a relatively ductile matrix, micro-crack tips and artificial notches. The stress concentration at these sites provides a high input of strain energy for grain boundary motion leading to grain coarsening. Furthermore, when the grain size is very small, the stress gradient leading away from the stress concentration sites is also believed to increase the driving force for grain boundary migration within the affected regions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
