Abstract

The ability of grain boundaries (GB) to move has been found to be strongly dependent on crystallography, i.e. misorientation of the adjacent grains and orientation (inclination) of the GB in a crystal. Boundary mobility is rate-controlling in recrystallization and grain growth and thus, affects microstructure evolution and texture formation. This paper deals with recent advances in our understanding of misorientation and inclination dependence of grain boundary migration.
