Title - Deformation of Ultra-Fine Grained Polycrystals
The density of geometrically necessary dislocations (GND) obtained from the lattice curvature was studied in commercially pure copper up to extreme large strains (von Mises strain of 63). Its evolution shows an increase to a maximum at a strain of about 2,
then decreases until reaching the stationary limiting stage of grain refinement at a von Mises strain of about 14. At the same time, the total dislocation density is also decreasing. It is shown that the variation in the GND density correlates with the difference
between the correlated (first neighbor grains) and the non-correlated (random neighbor) misorientation angle distributions. The low quantity of GND at extreme large strains is a consequence of the near Taylor-type homogeneous behavior of the polycrystalline
ultrafine-grained structure.
