Only whole numbers are given in the Table. The standard contains 30 numbers
•
shape factor and index of asymmetry of the grain structure
•
grain number according to GOST 5639 and АSТМ Е112
The main advantage of the new method is the possibility of
assessment of grain anisotropy in the examined structures using
the variation coefficient of grain distribution in the product volume
generally used in the assessment of grain structure unhomogeneity.
All above-mentioned parameters are determined in commonly used
units to ensure higher accuracy of design strength calculation of
new materials as there is no need in conversion of conventional
numbers into commonly used units.
The new method was taken as a basis for a proposed standard.
The new standard features a condition that each number is a
monodisperse system of spheres (equiaxed grains).
In the proposed standard, value of the grain diameter within the
monodisperse system of spheres in which grain anisotropy is absent
and not the quantity of grains in a form of cubes in 1 mm
2
as in
GOST 5639-88 is taken as the grain number. Then, the number of
equiaxed grains in a unit of volume is determined by the following
equation:
N
V
=
m
pcs/mm

Тhis approach will ensure a clear-cut assessment of material grain
anisotropy by the variation coefficient of grain distribution by sizes.
If the obtained variation coefficient in the examined structure is
0.28 in a plane or -0.36 in a line, it will be the evidence of structure
homogeneity in a volume. And the more this value differs from
the above values, the higher anisotropy is in the volume of the
examined structure.
The new standard features:
1. The standard series is set for 3D structure objects
2. Spatial spherical model of structural components
