Microplasticity in Polycrystals: A Thermomechanical Experimental Perspective
Résumé
In this paper, thermomechanical couplings at the grain scale in metallic polycrystals are studied during the deformation process through an original experimental setup and improved calibration tools and full-field treatments. In order to perform intragranular thermomechanical analysis in a metallic polycrystal at the grain scale, a crystallography-based technique for the projection of the temperature and displacement fields on a polynomial basis is proposed. It enables intragranular coupled analysis of strain and temperature full-field data. Macroscopic, mesoscopic and granular analysis are then conducted and it is shown that the determination of a macroscopic yield stress as well as a critical resolved shear stress in grains is possible. Early local microplastic activity is therefore thermomechanically confirmed.
