Abstract

A hybrid multilevel model for a representative volume has been developed to describe the thermomechanical treatment of materials throughout the manufacturing–operation cycle. The model serves as an efficient tool for the digital design of functional materials and products. It quantitatively evaluates defects and grain structure formed under various thermomechanical treatment modes using statistical distributions of internal variables. These data are subsequently employed to construct polyhedral grain structure and to transfer defect-related information, expressed by using critical shear stresses and crystallographic lattice orientations in operational simulations. The model was calibrated, tested for Inconel 718 alloy, and applied to design alloy blanks during rolling and annealing, as well as to the analysis of low-cycle fatigue during operation.
Keywords: multilevel model; material structure; grain size; recrystallization; thermomechanical treatment; Inconel 718 multilevel model; material structure; grain size; recrystallization; thermomechanical treatment; Inconel 718
