| Abstract Scope |
In recent years, disconnections and shear coupling have been the focus of explanations for grain boundary (GB) migration behaviors. However, many of these studies have focused on high symmetry GBs, which may not be representative of the general boundaries found in a GB network. This study uses novel simulation methods on a more general class of GBs with low symmetry to examine the mechanisms underlying the motion of these GBs. The boundaries will be subjected to an energy conserving orientational (ECO) driving force as well as a shear driving force, and the responses and boundary motion will be contrasted. |
