A novel Monte Carlo procedure is applied to the study of the kinetics of grain growth in two dimensions. The model employed maps the microstructure onto a discrete lattice. Each lattice site is assigned a number. between 1 and Q. which indicates the local crystallographic orientation. The initial di

β¦ Synopsis
The process of stagnation in grain growth has been studied by means of computer modeling of the process. Our calculations indicate that stagnation only occurs for large values of the Zener drag, for small values of the drag we find indications for a direct transition to abnormal growth.

Texture alterations and their effect on the kinetics of grain \_erowth were investigated by computer simulation. The initial system was described by the distribution of grain sizes and grain misorientations. The behaviour of grain systems with high and low spread of preferred orientation was investi
The effect of Zener drag on the grain growth process has been studied within the framework of the Wagner-Zlyosov-Hillert model. We find. as expected, that stagnation takes place, and we have studied how the limiting radius varies with Zener drag. We also demonstrate that previous models for the kine
