A zoom on a grain boundary in the 32 grain microstructure, c.f. Figs. 5 and 10 (the subgrain boundary appears in the lower right quadrant of the microstructure in those figures). Top line shows the phase-field \(\phi \) and bottom line the dislocation density \(\rho \). The images on the left are immediately after the deformation is applied and the images on the right are after 1 h of constant deformation. The maximum display value for the dislocation density has not been capped in these images, unlike in previous figures
