## Abstract This paper develops a microstructural morphology‐based domain partitioning method (MDP) as a comprehensive pre‐processor for multi‐scale simulation of heterogeneous multi‐phase materials. The MDP method systematically creates a multi‐scale image simulation–characterization methodology t

✦ Synopsis
A phase field modelling to clarify the multi-scale deformation mechanism of polycrystalline metals was undertaken. Modified coupling equations between the phase and stress/strain using a multiphase field model were introduced, and solved numerically under typical test-case conditions. The grain growth process was simulated first, and the microscopic stress distribution was calculated. The microstructural morphology was drastically affected by the stress dependency. The relationship between macroscopic loading and microstructure was then verified by a tensile test. Microstructural rearrangement was induced by macroscopic deformation, and we conclude that the present model is effective for further investigation into the multi-scale deformation mechanics.

We describe an algorithm for the numerical solution of a phase-field model (PFM) of microstructure evolution in polycrystalline materials. The PFM system of equations includes a local order parameter, a quaternion representation of local orientation and a species composition parameter. The algorithm
