Contrary to conventional crystal plasticity, which only accounts for plastic flow and hardening induced by statistically stored dislocations (SSDs), MFDM-EVP-FFT also describes the evolution of polarized geometrically necessary dislocation (GND) density and its effect on both plastic flow and hardening. Numerical results for a Fe\u2013TiB<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>MMC made of a ferrite matrix (\u03b1-Fe) and elastic ceramic particles (TiB<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>) are presented. Full-field simulations are performed using synthetic periodic unit cells representative of the MMC, with single-crystalline and polycrystalline matrix, for different particle interspacing distances. A strong dependence of the predicted equivalent stress, cumulated plastic strain and GND density fields with particle interspacing distance is observed, in contrast with conventional crystal plasticity. Correlations between these mechanical fields and microstructural features, and their influence on local and global mechanical behavior are examined for the different MMC microstructures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1186\/s40323-020-0141-z","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,19]],"date-time":"2020-02-19T13:03:25Z","timestamp":1582117405000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Particle interspacing effects on the mechanical behavior of a Fe\u2013TiB2 metal matrix composite using FFT-based mesoscopic field dislocation mechanics"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"J.","family":"Gen\u00e9e","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S.","family":"Berbenni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"N.","family":"Gey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"R.
