loading was computed to be 6.083 GPa, and in both principal directions transverse
to the shock direction the value of stress was 5.402 GPa. The computed stress-time
profile for this loading history at the center of the sample is given in Fig. 5.
5 Local-Scale Modeling
Using the results of the macroscale simulations of the plate impact experiment, we
now seek to probe the micromechanics of deformation within a series of polycrystal
calculations. The loading profiles given in Fig. 5 will be the applied stress boundary
conditions for the polycrystal models discussed later and represent the soft-scale
coupling procedure advocated herein. To enable this, we first discuss a single crystal
model for tantalum that has been developed to also represent the non-Schmid effects
in that material.
5.1 Single Crystal Model
The single crystal model used in this work is one, which has been developed over a
number of years and is cast in a large deformation framework. The formulation
outlined here is derived from prior work by Asaro and Rice [5], Acharya and
Beaudoin [6], Kothari and Anand [38], Busso [13], Busso and McClintock [14],
Kocks [37], Kalidindi et al. [34], Bronkhorst et al. [9], Anand [4], Bronkhorst et al.
[12], Gurtin [27], Gurtin et al. [28], and Cho et al. [16] (Fig. 6).
