The change in crystal orientation at a point within the material canoccur as a result of both plastic deformation and migration of grain boundaries. To addressthis issue, researchers have previously combined the Kobayashi-Warren-Carter (KWC)orientation phase field with crystal plasticity [1]. It was later recognized that the micropolartheory provides a more suitable framework for this problem, leading to the coupling of theKWC orientation phase field with Cosserat crystal plasticity [2]. However, the KWCformulation includes a singular diffusion equation and is limited to grain boundary energiesof the Read-Shockley type. In recent developments, an alternative model for the orientationphase field has been proposed, which allows for anisotropic grain boundary energies [3]. Inthis study, we extend this model by coupling it with Cosserat crystal plasticity and compareits predictive capabilities and numerical performance to the KWC-Cosserat crystal plasticitycoupling within a two-dimensional finite element framework.
