Substructure Dynamics in Crystalline Materials: New Insight from In Situ Experiments, Detailed EBSD Analysis of Experimental and Natural Samples and Numerical Modelling

The understanding of the dynamics of substructures during deformation and annealing is fundamental in our ability to predict microstructural and physical properties such as rheological behaviour of crystalline materials. Here, we present an overview of new insights into substructure dynamics through a combination of in-situ heating experiments, detailed Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) analysis and numerical modelling.
