The intrinsic lattice resistance to dislocation motion, or Peierls stress, depends on the core structure of the dislocation and is one essential feature controlling plastic anisotropy in materials such as HCP Zn, Mg, and Ti. Here, we implement an anisotrop ...
Body-centered cubic metals are of high technological interest: for example tungsten as potential plasma facing component in future fusion reactors, molybdenum employed in aircraft parts, niobium as superconducting magnets, etc. The characteristics of their ...
Single crystal deformation unveiling the characteristics of crystal glide and the role of defect propagation herein has been a matter of intense research more than 60 years ago. A manifold of different mechanical testing methods and crystal qualities were ...
Three newly identified cross-slip mechanisms from atomistic simulations of fcc crystals, namely surface, bulk and intersection cross-slip types, were hierarchically informed into discrete dislocation dynamics simulations. The influence of each cross-slip t ...
Degradation of mechanical properties due to nanometric irradiation induced defects is one of the challenging issues in designing ferritic materials for future nuclear fusion reactors. Various types of defects, namely dislocation loops, voids, He bubbles an ...
A new dislocation-based model for low cycle fatigue in fcc metals at a length scale smaller than the feature size of the dislocation structures is presented. It uses the crystal plasticity finite element method and dislocation densities as internal variabl ...
Polycrystalline materials with crystallite diameters below hundred nanometer exhibit extraordinary strength which goes along with a decrease in ductility. In order to tailor tough materials, which combine strength and ductility, the underlying deformation ...
Evidence of composition fluctuations around threading dislocations at scales ranging from atomic distances to tens of nanometers is provided by z-contrast imaging, strain measurement, and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy in AlxIn1-x N/GaN heterostructu ...
A mechanism for (1 0 (1) over bar 2) twin nucleation in Mg is studied in which edge < c > and mixed < c + a > lattice dislocations dissociate into a stable twin, having at least the minimum 6-layer thickness formed by three glissile twinning dislocations, ...
Multiscale modeling, including molecular dynamics (MD) and discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) methods, appears as a significant tool for the description of plasticity and mechanical properties of materials. This research concerns the influence of irradiatio ...
