Solid Mechanics Master Thesis Project at Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery Gas Turbine development department in Finspång, Sweden

Title: "Preliminary life evaluations on polycrystalline alloys using simulations on FE-models in which each grain is an anisotropic single crystal and the grains are randomly distributed"

The first target:
• To understand how the correlation between global and local (on the grain level) strains are affected by e.g. the grain size.
• Other investigations of interest are also enabled by such FE-modelling and might be a part of the project, depending on how things proceed.

The inspiration comes from a presentation at the recent LCF8-conference in Dresden. The stress concentrations associated with grain boundaries may be more severe than those from drilled holes, which explains why cracks do not always start at such holes during cyclic testing.

The task:

To run Monte Carlo-simulations using a large number of randomly generated polycrystals to study how the strain is distributed. We should try to quantify:
• The probability of getting strain over a pre-set (high) strain value in a specific volume and
• The probability of being above a preset (not as high) strain in a specified volume fraction

The FE-models are to be generated with the code Neper.

Eventually, we hope to be able to estimate the probability that an unfavorable grain boundary is combined with a global strain concentration in a component. This could form the basis for a probabilistic crack initiation model. Such a model could take the measured grain size distribution from a cast component as input (i.e. while the local grain orientation is random, the global distribution of grain size is 'deterministically governed' by the component geometry and the fixed casting parameters). This would be a physically motivated notch effect model.
