Abstract:

Material scientists are interested in the variability of stress conditions as compressive forces are applied throughout a volume. Sophisticated computer codes are used to simulate von Mises stress fields, and it is often observed that the internal grain boundary structure is important. We describe the non-stationary stress field within a realized cube of tantalum (having tens of grains and >570,000 computational elements) with a model featuring integrals of GMRFs on second- and third-order grain boundaries.
