Abstract

A two-dimensional model for diffusional creep (Coble creep) and diffusionaccommodated grain boundary sliding in polycrystals has been developed. The results obtained for small symmetrical clusters of grains reproduce Spingam and Nix's work [Acta Metall. 2M, 1389 (1978)]. For clusters of irregularly shaped grains the material deposition and removal rates, the fluxes along the grain boundaries, the grain boundary tractions as well as the grain boundary sliding rates are irregular and can all be calculated.
