A dislocation density based crystal plasticity method is applied with the eigen-strain-based homogenization to investigate the thermo-mechanical responses in titanium alloys.The objective of our study is to devise a computational model that could efficiently track and predict the crack initiation at both micro- and structural-scale.First,the proposed model is compared with the classical crystal plasticity finite element method,which shows its improvement of efficiency while retaining the accuracy in describing the response at micro-scale.Second,the parameters are obtained within the physical range and the error between simulation and experiment is treated as the optimization objective for the calibration.Finally,a structural-scale simulation shows that the proposed model can pinpoint the potential crack initiation sites throughout the structure and at grain level accuracy.
