Multiscale multi-physics materials simulation of chemo-mechanical crystal plasticity with DAMASK

The lecture presents a unified multi-physics chemo-mechanical crystal plasticity theory and modeling package and applications to engineering alloys subjected to thermal and mechanical loads. The solution of continuum mechanical boundary value problems requires constitutive laws that are based on material physics and that connect deformation and stress at each material point. This task has been implemented in the free software package DAMASK on the basis of the crystal plasticity method using a variety of constitutive laws and homogenization approaches. It is shown that a purely mechanics-based approach is no longer sufficient to study current advanced metallic materials. In these materials the elasto-plastic deformation via shear carriers such as dislocations, TRIP and TWIP effects is strongly coupled to phase transformation, dissipative sample heating, and damage evolution. Therefore, our theory has recently been extended to treat such chemo-mechanical multi-physics and multi-field phenomena.
