Abstract
An inverse optimization strategy based on crystal plasticity finite element simulations of polycrystals was used to obtain the critical resolved shear stresses of two Mg-1%Mn alloys containing neodymium from macroscopic experimental data. It was found that, with respect to pure Mg, the presence of Nd increases the CRSSbasal, CRSStwinning, and the CRSSbasal/CRSStwinning ratio and decreases the CRSSnon-basal/CRSStwinning ratio. Additions of neodymium as high as 1 wt% result in similar CRSSs values for all deformation modes and, thus, in an isotropic yielding behavior.
