EBSD study of variant reorientation, texture, and twin formation in a martensitic NiTi alloy deformed in compression

Roland Logé, Cyril Cayron, Mathijs Pieter van der Meer, Junfeng Xiao

Martensitic crystallography plays a vital role in the texture evolution and mechanical properties in Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloys when subjected to deformation. However, their microstructural changes during deformation are not well known and ...

Complements to Mugge and Friedel's Theory of Twinning

Cyril Cayron

The crystallography of twinning is based on the concepts of simple shear and obliquity introduced by Mugge, Mallard and Friedel at the turn of the last century, with tensor mathematics later developed by Bilby, Bevis and Crocker in the 1960s. We propose a ...

Diffraction artefacts from twins and stacking faults, and the mirage of hexagonal, polytypes or other superstructures

Cyril Cayron

Recently, a hexagonal phase has been reported in high carbon steels in several studies. Here, we show that the electron microscopy results used in these studies were erroneously interpreted. The extra-spots in the diffraction patterns and the odd contrasts ...

Automated Platform for Long-Term Culture and High-Content Phenotyping of Single C. elegans Worms

Johan Auwerx, Martinus Gijs, Matteo Cornaglia, Laurent Mouchiroud, Rongrong Xiang, Elena Katsyuba, Hüseyin Baris Atakan

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a suitable model organism in drug screening. Traditionally worms are grown on agar plates, posing many challenges for long-term culture and phenotyping of animals under identical conditions. Microfluidics allows for ' ...

The mechanics of crack-tip dislocation emission and twinning

Predrag Andric

Dislocation emission from a crack tip is a necessary mechanism for crack tip blunting and toughening. A material is intrinsically ductile under Mode I loading when the critical stress intensity

K_{Ie}

for dislocation emission is lower than the critical s ...

A one-step mechanism for new twinning modes in magnesium and titanium alloys modelled by the obliquity correction of a (58 degrees, a+2b) prototype stretch twin

Cyril Cayron

The {11-22} and {11-26} twinning modes were recently discovered by Ostapovets et al. [Philos. Mag. (2017), 97, 1088-1101] and interpreted as {10-12}-{10-12} double twins formed by the simultaneous action of two twinning shears. Another interpretation is pr ...

Fighting preterm birth with novel surgical tools and biomaterials engineering

Yannick Robert Devaud

With advances in fetal diagnosis and therapy, fetoscopy has become a good option to treat a series of life threatening diseases like twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome or severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The efficacy of fetoscopy for those types of d ...

Hard-sphere displacive model of extension twinning in magnesium

Cyril Cayron

A crystallographic displacive model is proposed for the extension twins in magnesium. The atomic displacements are established, and the homogeneous lattice distortion is analytically expressed as a continuous angular-distortive matrix that becomes a shear ...

Embrittlement induced by the synergistic effects of radiation damage and helium in structural steels

Kun Wang

Ferritic/martensitic steels are candidate materials for fusion reactor structural components, liquid metal containers of spallation neutron sources, and accelerator driven systems, with good radiation resistance and thermo-mechanical properties. However, e ...

A New Mechanism for Twin Growth in Mg Alloys

William Curtin, Aitor Luque Gomez, Maryam Ghazisaeidi

Twinning is an important deformation mode in lightweight Mg alloys, but the mechanisms of nucleation and growth of twins and their interactions with solutes remain largely unresolved. Here, a new model for thermally-activated, stress-driven growth of twin ...
