Title: Computer simulation of pencil glide in bcc metals

Abstract

An existing computer code for simulation of texture development in polycrystals has been modified to model ''pencil glide'' as observed in some bcc metals. Pencil glide can be thought of as a limiting case where the slip direction is restricted to (111) directions but the slip plane is arbitrary. The existing code simulates ''restricted glide'', i.e., (111)(110) slip systems, by using the Bishop-Hill method to find the ative vertex of the single crystal yield surface for each grain. It then corrects this trial solution by using a nonlinear viscous law based on the total (111)-resolved stress component. Only a small increase in computation time required is required compared to restricted glide. The results of the pencil glide modification of the code are that the texture development in tension is essentially the same as for restricted glide but that significant differences appear in plane strain compression (rolling). The Taylor Factor in tension for a random polycrystal is found to be 2.74. 20 refs., 5 figs., 1 tab.
