Figure 1From: Designing nanomaterials with desired mechanical properties by constraining the evolution of their grain shapes Evolution as a function of mean grain size. Evolution as a function of mean grain size of (a) 2-D grain shape function, (b) 3-DArea form function, (c) 3-DPerimeter form function, (d) 2-D percent deviation from spherical shape, (e) 3-DArea percent deviation from spherical shape and (f) 3-DPerimeter percent deviation from spherical shape, corresponding to different mechanisms of grain growth (i.e. corresponding to TOTAL process, GBM mechanism and GRC mechanism).Back to article page
