This challenge is fundamentally tied to the intricate microstructural defects that emerge during the processing. Systematic microstructure-based modelling can offer solutions to address this bottleneck. In this work, we utilize a crystal plasticity model, developed for gamma''-strengthened Ni-base alloys and calibrated with single crystal tensile and creep tests of Inconel 718. By systematically refining the representative volume element complexity---from equiaxed to elongated grain morphologies, and from unimodal to bimodal orientation and grain size distributions---we demonstrate how each layer of structural realism contributes to the model’s predictive capacity. Creep tests of laser-based powder bed fusion (PBF-LB/M) manufactured samples in three orientations (with the tensile axis parallel, perpendicular, and 45° tilted relative to the building direction) were performed at 650° C, accompanied by electron backscatter secondary diffraction measurements. The results of our simulations reveal that the bimodal grain morphology and crystallographical texture significantly influence the observed creep anisotropy. We show that the elongated grain structure combined with grain boundary sliding plays a major role in the creep response, specifically in tilted specimens.

In addition to the conventional material properties e.g. elastic constants, the model requires the parameters of the initial microstructure as an input. Thus, the γ’-precipitate size and the channel width of the γ-matrix were obtained from SEM micrographs. The model uses the slip system theory and describes the movement, multiplication and annihilation of dislocations in the channels. Furthermore, the cutting of precipitates is another mechanism contributing to the plastic flow. The evolution of the morphology due to rafting and its effects on the deformation have been implemented according to. The kinematic hardening is introduced as a stress tensor to realistically represent the strain hardening of arbitrary oriented single crystals. The mechanical behaviour of single crystal specimens has been experimentally investigated in tension tests at different strain rates and in creep tests under various loads. The constitutive model has been calibrated based on the experimental data for temperatures of 950°C and 850°C and the [001] and [111] crystallographic orientations. Finally, a micromechanical model was created to simulate the creep response of additive manufactured polycrystalline structures. An EBSD image is taken to obtain the grain geometry and their respective orientation. The grain boundaries are discretised using cohesive elements, whereas the single crystal model was applied to each grain in the representative volume. The polycrystal model is generated using Dream3D, NetGen and other software previously developed at the BAM.
