Abstract
The plastic deformation behavior of dual-phase (DP) steel is strongly affected by its underlying three-dimensional (3D) microstructural factors such as spatial distribution and morphology of ferrite and martensite phases. In this paper, we present a coupled simulation method by the multi-phase-field (MPF) model and the crystal plasticity fast Fourier transformation (CPFFT) model to investigate the 3D microstructure-dependent plastic deformation behavior of DP steel. The MPF model is employed to generate a 3D digital image of DP microstructure, which is utilized to create a 3D representative volume element (RVE). Furthermore, the CPFFT simulation of tensile deformation of DP steel is performed using the 3D RVE. Through the simulations, we demonstrate the stress and strain partitioning behaviors in DP steel depending on the 3D morphology of DP microstructure can be investigated consistently.
