Abstract

The "Phase-Field Model of Dislocations" (PFMD) was used to simulate shearing of gamma-prime precipitate arrays in single crystal turbine blade superalloys. The focus of the work has been on the cutting of the L12 ordered precipitates by a<112>{111} dislocation ribbons during Primary Creep. The Phase Field Model presented incorporates specially developed Generalised Stacking Fault Energy (γ-surface) data obtained from atomistic simulations. The topography of this surface determines the shearing mechanisms observed in the model. The merit of the new γ-surface, is that it accounts for the formation of extrinsic stacking faults, making the model more relevant to creep deformation of superalloys at elevated temperatures.
