abstract = {There is an ever-increasing demand for structural metals
with higher strength. Metals can be strengthened by reducing
grain size in their microstructure, but ductility is also
concomitantly reduced. High strength and ductility are a
desirable combination of properties for most structural
engineering materials. By arranging fine grains in a
continuous network that surrounds islands of coarse grains,
in a so-called harmonic structure, it is possible to
increase the strength without reducing ductility. Such a
synergetic effect has been attributed to an accelerated
work-hardening rate in harmonic structures.This thesis aims
at deepening the understanding of the synergetic effects,
which can help the optimization of harmonic structures in
the future. The distributions of stress and strain were
measured during tensile testing as they are deemed important
for understanding the interplay between coarse and fine
grain fractions. Stress distribution among the grain
fractions were measured at unprecedented detail in harmonic
structures materials through synchrotron X-ray powder
diffraction and individual grains through high resolution
reciprocal space mapping. To achieve individual
investigation of grain fractions, a new algorithm was
elaborated in this work for the separation and analysis of
diffraction data in a single- phase material with two
fractions of grain sizes. The distribution of strain was
measured with digital image correlation in optical
microscopy.The main achievements in this work reveal that
the constriction of coarse grains by fine grains in harmonic
structures increases the yield strength of coarse grains
compared to homogenous counterparts. At elastic-plastic
transition, stress partitions between the grain fractions
and back stresses develop in coarse grains along with
forward stresses in fine grains. With further macroscopic
strain, the local strains also clearly partition between the
grain fractions. The stress-strain behaviour of the grain
fractions is similar to the homogenous counterparts when the
local and macroscopic strains are similar. The high
work-hardening rate of the harmonic structure is the
superposition of fine grains with inherited high
work-hardening rate and coarse grains with low
work-hardening rate. Beyond elastic-plastic transition, the
acceleration of work-hardening rate in the coarse-grained
fraction is found, which coincides with the strain
partitioning. The evolution of strain distributions shortly
before macroscopic fracture indicates that the
microstructure might suppress strain localization. However,
full understanding of fracture mechanisms requires further
investigation.},
