Numerical computation of stress induced microstructure

摘要

The mesh transformation method is applied on a two-dimensional elastic crystal model to study the formation of laminated microstructure in austenite-martensite phase transition when certain external loads are applied. Numerical experiments show that simple laminated microstructures with various volume fractions and twin width can be obtained by varying the loads. Numerical experiments also show that second order laminated microstructure with branched needle-like laminates can also be obtained by certain loads.
