download PDFAbstract. Full field simulations have proven to be an efficient tool for grain size prediction in industrial processes, with wider ranges of validity and more comprehensive results than other approaches. DIGIMU® is a level-set based solution able to simulate grain growth, Smith-Zener pinning, discontinuous dynamic, post-dynamic, and static recrystallization, and very recently Continuous Dynamic Recrystallization (CDRX). The goal of this work is to explore the capabilities of DIGIMU® to CDRX with evolving second phase particles. First, a new formalism has been implemented to describe particles boundaries with a level-set function. It is then possible to apply growth or dissolution velocities to the boundaries, and to make new particles appear. Secondly, the orientation has been defined in each grain, and the grain boundary energy can then be computed from the intergranular disorientation with Read-Shockley model. A boundary migration solver which considers heterogeneous grain boundary energy is used, which enables the simulation of structure and substructure evolutions. The Gourdet-Montheillet CDRX model is adapted from a mean field to a full field framework, and the corresponding parameters for Zircaloy-4 are identified. Thanks to all those developments, DIGIMU® can simulate full field CDRX in high stacking fault energy materials, coupled with precipitates evolution. Several examples will be presented, some of them compared to experimental results.
