Abstract
- Polycrystalline microcomponents made of Stabilor®G, a dental alloy mainly consisting of gold, are examined in terms of their elastic properties. Finite element calculations of uniaxial tensile tests are carried out with ABAQUS so as to identify the characteristic parameters of the distribution of Young's modulus. It is shown that the statistics of mechanical properties observed experimentally can be estimated by using the finite element method. The findings are generalized to microcomponents consisting of crystals with a cubic symmetry.
