Multiscale Modeling of Solute Bulk Diffusion at Dislocation Cores
SINOPSIS
A sequential multiscale modeling methodology is developed to study the diffusion of solute atoms in the vicinity of a dislocation core and the kinetics of the ensuing clustering process. The problem is set up in the continuum sense, taking into account the coupling between diffusion and deformation. Specifically, gradients of both strain and concentration drive diffusion, and the elastic constants are considered functions of the local solute concentration. These coupling parameters are calibrated from atomistic models. The problem is solved using a finite element formulation. Mg clustering at an edge dislocation in Al-5%Mg is studied, which is relevant for static and dynamic strain aging. The model is used to test the validity of the Cottrell-Bilby-Louat expression, broadly used to describe the kinetics of solute clustering at dislocation cores. It is concluded that the formula does not predict the variation in time of the concentration at every point within the cluster, the purpose for which it is customarily used. However, it properly describes the evolution of a global measure of the cluster size.
