4.1. Fundamental Assumptions
- (1)
- The intragranular plastic distortion follows the crystal plasticity theory. No more than five independent slip factors (, )~(, ) are activated to undertake the intragranular plastic distortion, which are selected from those potential slip factors of specific lattice at a given temperature with the highest five resolved shear stresses ~ under the mesoscopic stress applied in RVE. The plastic strain is small enough to ensure that the additive decomposition is applicable to the distortion tensor and the activated slip factors (, ) can be regarded as approximately fixed during the deformation.
- (2)
- The RVE containing multiple grains can be regarded as homogeneous and isotropic, while its mesoscopic plastic strain and mesoscopic stress follow the classical J2 finite strain plasticity theory: ∥, which requires that three principal directions of deviatoric stress tensor and the ratio among three principal stresses of stress tensor are fixed during the whole deformation history.
- (3)
- The residual material distortion at the GC made up of microscopic plastic distortion and residual lattice rotation is equal to the mesoscopic plastic distortion of RVE, which is the same as that in Taylor’s polycrystalline model.
- (4)
- Each equaxial grain can be simplified as a sphere with the same diameter of , while the distance between its GC and the 2D-EBSD observational plane is H. For each spherical grain cut by the 2D-EBSD observational plane, the ratio is a random variable ranging from 0 to 1.
- (5)
- The residual lattice rotation near the GB is close to the mesoscopic material rotation of RVE due to the restraint from the fixed orientation relationship between the two sides of GB, as explained by Figure 9. The lattice rotation inside each grain is induced by two parts: one is induced by the overall grain rotation synchronized with the mesoscopic material rotation, and another is induced by the grain distortion accompanied with dislocations slip. Therein, the lattice rotation induced by the grain distortion must be zero near the GB; otherwise, the fixed orientation relationship between the two sides of GB will be broken (e.g., the GB misorientation angle will be changed). Taking this into account, the residual lattice rotation at the GB should be the same as the mesoscopic material rotation, since the other part must be equal to zero. A deeper physical reason is that the interior dislocations cannot be absorbed or released by those GBs at the room temperature.
- (6)
- The intragranular residual lattice rotation decreases from GC to GB along the grain radius r linearly and isotropically in spherical grains: and .

5. Conclusions
- (1)
- The average and values in the deformed gauge section measured on 2D-EBSD observational planes with different angles to loading axis are almost the same, which reveals the isotropic evolution law of and during the deformation.
- (2)
- Six fundamental assumptions including several necessary simplifications, such as spherical grain hypothesis and minimum activated slip factors number hypothesis, were made in this research to help us establish the modified 3D polycrystalline plasticity model based on our previous 2D model.
- (3)
- The relative lattice rotation at the GC and the intragranular misorientation distribution were calculated in different cases based on the equations given by the 3D polycrystalline plasticity model. The linear relationship turned out to exist between the relative lattice rotation angle at the GC and the maximum principal plastic strain of RVE, where the coefficient C was influenced by both the Euler angles of any individual grain and the ratio k between another two principal plastic strains of RVE.
- (4)
- The and were theoretically derived from the intragranular misorientation distribution according to their definitions: and . For polycrystalline metals with uniform equiaxial grains, and were turned out to be isotropic factors independent of 2D-EBSD observational plane selection. Therefore, both and follow the isotropic linear evolution law with the maximum principal plastic strain and are meanwhile influenced by the ratio k between another two principal plastic strains of RVE.
- (5)
- Two laws given by this model were supported by experimental results: the linear evolution law of and has already been widely reported by previous studies, and the isotropic evolution law was verified by experimental result in this research.
