Atomistic Simulation of Grain Boundaries of the Twin Limited Structure in Ni3Al
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2011
Abstract
Embedded atom method molecular dynamics simulations of low Σ grain boundaries in Ni3Al are presented. The results show that the grain boundary plane has a larger effect on grain boundary energy than the Σ value, rigid body translations and stoichiometry. Assessment of the energies of Σ3n (n ≥ 1) grain boundaries in Ni3Al for various grain boundary planes indicates that only the Σ3 grain boundary is energetically preferred. The implications of this result for the development of the twin limited structure based on energetic considerations are discussed.
