Using Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) an ultrafine grained microstructure can be achieved. It has been demonstrated that FEM calculations based on a dislocation density related constitutive model are a suitable method to describe the structure refinement as well as the evolution of mechanical properties and overall texture [1,2]. So far, the evolution of the average misorientation between neigbouring dislocation cells was not included in this model description. A simple extension based on experimental evidences introduced in the FEM code allows to trace the evolution of the average misorientation angle. Results of modeling will be compared with experimental data.
