Solute-strengthening in metal alloys with short-range order

William Curtin, Shankha Nag

Recent surging interest in strengthening of High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) with possible chemical ordering motivates the development of new theory. Here, an existing theory for random alloys that accounts for solute-dislocation and solute–solute interactions i ...

Experimental and ab initio derivation of interface stress in nanomultilayered coatings: Application to immiscible Cu/W system with variable in-plane stress

Pandula Manura Liyanage, Claudia Cancellieri, Giacomo Lorenzin

Interface stress is a fundamental descriptor for interphase boundaries and is defined in strict relation to the interface energy. In nanomultilayers with their intrinsically high interface density, the functional properties are dictated by the interface st ...

The influence of lattice misfit on screw and edge dislocation-controlled solid solution strengthening in Mo-Ti alloys

William Curtin, Carolina Baruffi, You Rao

Mo-Ti alloys form solid solutions over a wide range of compositions, with lattice misfit parameters increasing significantly with titanium content. This indicates a strong increase in the critical stress for edge dislocation motion. Here, we probe the tran ...

Influence of Fiber Orientation on the Elastic Limit Tensile Stress of UHPFRC

Eugen Brühwiler, Emmanuel Denarié, Jian Zhan

The elastic limit tensile stress of UHPFRC is governed by contributions of the cementitious matrix and the fibrous skeleton. This paper finds that fiber orientation has significant influence on the matrix tensile strength of UHPFRC, while this is not consi ...
