A flowchart, outlining the procedure to obtain a 3D synthetic polycrystalline microstructure with an embedded inclusion, local mesh refinement, and a debonded region, is shown in Fig. 3. The process can be broadly divided into two steps: (a) creation of a 3D synthetic polycrystalline microstructu...
