Abstract
A computer model has been proposed to describe the development of text ure and microstructure in nanocrystalline electrodeposits of Ni-20%Fe. The main driving force for this process is the minimization of free e nergy of the system. are results obtained from the simulation show tha t the texture and microstructure are strongly influenced by the crysta llographically anisotropic surface energy and nucleation rate.
