The mechanical strength of metals depends on their resistance against various microscopic
deformation processes. In ductile metals, the most important process is shearing of the crystal
lattice by dislocations. One of the fundamental aspects of dislocation ...
Capturing plasticity at realistic dislocation densities with high configurational complexity requires a continuum-level discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) description. However, many features controlling dislocation motion are inherently atomistic, such as ...

Hydrogen atoms have a wide variety of effects on the mechanical performance of metals, and the underlying mechanisms associated with effects on plastic flow and embrittlement remain to be discovered or validated. Here, the reduction in the plastic flow str ...
Strengthening, i.e. increased stress required to move a dislocation, in dilute or complex alloys arises from the totality of the interaction energies between the solutes and an individual dislocation. Prevailing theories for strengthening in bcc alloys con ...

The plastic flow behavior of bcc transition metals up to moderate temperatures is dominated by the thermally activated glide of screw dislocations, which in turn is determined by the atomic-scale screw dislocation core structure and the associated kink-pai ...

The detrimental effects of the H on the mechanical properties of the metals are known for more than a century. One of the most important degradation mechanisms is H embrittlement (HE). In this thesis, we examined a few famous proposed mechanisms in the fie ...

In this work, molecular statics and molecular dynamics simulations of a/2 < 110 > dislocation behavior for a model FCC Co30Fe16.67Ni36.67Ti16.67 alloy are discussed. It is shown that the single FCC phase is elastically stable in this alloy. Local stacking ...

The performance of crystalline materials varies depending on the considered scale. To understand the size dependence of materials properties, the interaction and evolution of defects are essential. As such, the role played by dislocations is crucial for mo ...
The present work developed a new variational line tension model (LTM) that accounts for contributions from the local line energy, long-range interaction among dislocation segments, and interplay between dissociated partials. This new LTM has been shown to ...
