Abstract

The effect of grain boundary retardation by annealing twins in pure copper has been experimentally and theoretically investigated. A model that describes the influence of annealing twins on the migration of grain boundaries in pure metals has been proposed. The retarding force from the twins has been demonstrated to be analogous to the Zener retarding force created by incoherent fine particles. An equation has been derived to calculate the retarding force induced by annealing twins. The force has been demonstrated to be inversely proportional to the size of the twins and directly proportional to their volume fraction. The simulation results have been compared with the experimental results. A satisfactory correlation between the theoretical and experimental results has been achieved.
