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 ...
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 ...
Age hardening induced by the formation of (semi)-coherent precipitate phases is crucial for the processing and final properties of the widely used Al-6000 alloys despite the early stages of precipitation are still far from being fully understood. This cruc ...
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 ...
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 ...
Mg-3wt.%RE alloys show substantially enhanced < c + a > activity as compared to pure Mg or other Mg-Al, Mg-Zn alloys of similar grain sizes. Activation of < c + a > slip has been postulated to be associated with the reduction of the basal Li stacking fault ...
Molecular statics and molecular dynamics simulations are presented for the structure and glide motion of a/2(111) dislocations in a randomly-distributed model-BCC Co16.67Fe36.67Ni16.67Ti30 alloy. Core structure variations along an individual dislocation li ...
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 ...
Cross-slip is a fundamental process of screw dislocation motion and plays an important role in the evolution of work hardening and dislocation structuring in metals. Cross-slip has been widely studied in pure FCC metals but rarely in FCC solid solutions. H ...
A theory to predict the initial flow stress of an arbitrary N-component fcc random alloy is extended to predict the additional strengthening when a dilute concentration of a substitutional element is introduced. Assuming properties for the N-component allo ...
