Nanocrystalline metals have been an area of great interest in recent years due to their enhanced characteristics. One of the most striking is implied by the Hall-Petch relation: with decreasing grain size the material becomes stronger. This promise is fulf ...
Procedures for synthesizing and meshing digital polycrystalline microstructures are demonstrated. The meshing operation relies on a metric field, yielding a nonuniform mesh size and a nonuniform mesh aspect ratio. Isotropic meshing is done in the grains in ...
The effect of the bulk microstructure (grain size distribution, grain boundary composition on the oxygen transport properties of La0.5Sr0.5FeO3membranes was investigated. For this purpose, samples with different microstruct ...
The motivation of this work derives from the need of the cutting tool industry to improve its products in order to support harder and harder working conditions, namely increasing cutting speeds and working on stronger modern materials. The lifetime of the ...
Despite many years of intensive research there still remain many unresolved questions in powder and ceramic technology. A majority of these issues are linked to interfacial phenomena of atomic scale origin, which makes their experimental investigation very ...
Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) has been successfully applied in the sintering of nanocrystalline BaTiO3 and γ-Al2O3 in order to reach fully dense nanostructured ceramics at moderate pressure and temperature. BaTiO3 compacts with densities exceeding 97% and g ...
A combined experimental/simulation approach has been used to characterize the underlying deformation mechanisms associated with stress-assisted grain growth in nanocrystalline Al. Strain rate sensitivity experiments on freestanding submicron thin films und ...
Simulations of nanocrystalline materials reveal that the pressure gradient present within the structure can play a key role in the movement of self-interstitial atoms (SIA's) to surrounding grain boundaries and therefore in the resulting defect structure f ...
The prediction of material microstructure is of great interest to the material designers since the property and performance of materials depend strongly on their microstructures. In this work, a Monte Carlo approach is used to investigate the normal grain ...
The exact mechanism of creep resistance enhancement due to yttrium (Y) doping in a-alumina is still subject to speculation, although it is known that dopants segregate strongly to grain boundaries. The current work applies atomistic simulation techniques t ...
