Coupling between experimental measurements and polycristal finte element calculations for micromechanical study of metallic materials

Résumé

This paper presents a methodology for multiscale coupling between the morphology and texture of a microstructure as has been characterised experimentally, and the results of mechanical strain field analysis. This methodology is based on a coupling between experimental characterisation of the microstructure, in-situ and/or ex-situ mechanical tests, local strain field measurements performed at the grain scale, and finite element simulations. First, with orientation imaging microscopy, a map of the microstructure is generated that can be meshed. Then, finite element calculations are carried out on this mesh, using a constitutive law which takes into account the crystallographic orientation of each grain, as has been determined by the orientation imaging itself. These numerical results are then compared to the experimental strain field as obtained by digital image correlation at the scale of the grains. After a review of the different aspects of the coupling, the paper characterises and analyses possible sources of error of the measurements, as well as the differences in the simulation results with respect to mesh refinement and boundary conditions. Then, a definition of a cost function is proposed in order to optimise the parameters of the crystallographic constitutive law. Finally, this method is applied to the studies of zirconium and titanium aluminide alloys in order to improve the understanding of their mechanical behaviour in relation with their microstructures, which is a key requirement for their use in the nuclear and aeronautic industries, respectively.
