Abstract

Crack growth in ductile single crystals (DuSCs) is orientation dependent due to the anisotropies of crystal plasticity and elastic tensor. This study develops a phase-field model incorporating both crystal plasticity and crack growth and proposes a general method to decompose the elastic energy into compressive and tensile parts to prevent crack growth under compression in the phase-field description. The phase-field model, in combination with three Euler angles, is employed to simulate orientation-dependent crack growth in DuSCs. The contributions from crystal plasticity and anisotropic elasticity are compared, and the former is found to dominate in the anisotropy of crack growth in copper single crystals. The simulation results demonstrate that crystal orientation strongly affects the heterogeneous distribution of plastic strain and the interaction between plastic strain and crack growth. High-throughput phase-field simulations are performed with exhaustive crystal orientations, and the results are explained based on the anisotropy of the Taylor factor.Graphical abstract
