Abstract
A Monte Carlo (MC) procedure was applied to study static recrystallization processes. The initial microstructure, stored energy and orientation within each grain were taken from EBSD measurements. Site orientations used in the model may change continuously in Euler space. Several types of site saturated nucleation were implemented in the model. A standard MC algorithm was used and tested in several ways. The grain size distribution and final recrystallization texture obtained from the model were compared with experimental ones. The agreement between both sets of data is satisfactory. As some minor experimental effects are not observed in the model, some improvements are finally proposed.
