The continuous miniaturization of modern electromechanical systems calls for a comprehensive understanding of the mechanical properties of metallic materials specific to micrometer and sub-micrometer scales. At these scales, the nature of…
The tensile creep performance of a polycrystalline Co/Ni-base superalloy with a multimodal gamma prime distribution has been examined at 800C and 300MPa. The rupture life of the alloy is comparable to that of RR1000 tested under similar…
In this paper, we study the effects of $\theta ^\prime$-Al$_2$Cu plate-like precipitates on the plasticity of Al-Cu micro-pillars, with a sample size allowing the precipitates to cross the entire micro-pillar. {100}-slip traces are…
The effect of pre-ageing deformation on the size and distribution of beta-prime precipitates and subsequently on the resulting strength and ductility have been measured in a Mg-3.0at.%Zn-0.5at.%Y alloy. The alloy was extruded and then…
The formation of interface dipoles in self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of --CH$_3$ and --CF$_3$ terminated short-chain alkanethiolates on Ag(111) is studied by means of density functional theory calculations. The interface dipoles are…
We consider the stability of precipitates formed at grain boundaries (GBs) by radiation-induced segregation in dilute alloys subjected to irradiation. The effects of grain size and misorientation of symmetric-tilt GBs are quantified using…
The early stage of the chromium precipitation in copper was analyzed at the atomic scale by Atom Probe Tomography (APT). Quantitative data about the precipitate size, 3D shape, density, composition and volume fraction were obtained in a…
Atomistic simulations were carried out to analyze the interaction between $< a>$ basal dislocations and precipitates in Mg-Al alloys and the associated strengthening mechanisms.
Electrical resistivity evolution during precipitation in Al-Sc alloys is modeled using cluster dynamics. This mesoscopic modeling has already been shown to correctly predict the time evolution of the precipitate size distribution. In this…
Isothermal ageing of plastically deformed Mg-Zn-Y alloys resulted in precipitation along {10-12} twin boundaries. The bulky precipitates formed had structures similar to those recently reported for the rod-like \beta' precipitates, but…
Rapid solidification leads to unique microstructural features, where a less studied topic is the formation of various crystalline defects, including high dislocation densities, as well as gradients and splitting of the crystalline…
A new family of high-strength Al-alloys has recently been developed, tailored for the powder bed fusion-laser beam process. In these alloys, Mn, Cr and Zr are incorporated in solid solution at amounts up to three times that of equilibrium…
Coherent misfitting precipitates in elastically stressed media such as $\gamma \prime$ particles in nickel-based super-alloys show various splitting patterns such as doublets, quartets, or octets due to their misfit strain energy. While it…
Coherent topologically close-packed nanoplates in magnesium alloys can effectively improve strength and creep resistance.However, the formation mechanisms of several metastable TCP nanoplates remain unclear, and the traditional…
Fracture in aluminum alloys with precipitates involves at least two mechanisms, namely, ductile fracture of the aluminum-rich matrix and brittle fracture of the precipitates. In this work, a coupled crystal plasticity-phase field model for…
We report on a quantitative investigation into the effect of size and distribution of rod-shaped \beta' precipitates on strength and ductility of a Mg-Zn alloy. Despite precipitation strengthening being crucial for the practical application…
The mass assembly in star forming regions arises from the hierarchical structure in molecular clouds in tandem with fragmentation at different scales. In this paper, we present a study of the fragmentation of massive clumps covering a range…
During plastic deformation, metals change shape while continuously becoming stronger. The microscopic origin of these processes lies in the proliferation and movement of line defects, dislocations, and the subsequent self-organisation and…
We apply a combinatorial approach to study the influence of Mg concentration on the precipitation kinetics in an Al-Cu-Li alloy using a diffusion couple made by linear friction welding. The precipitation kinetics is monitored in the…
The composition and site occupancy of Mg within ordered {\delta} precipitates in a model Al Mg Li alloy have been characterized by atom probe microscopy and first-principles simulations. The concentration in the precipitates is found to be…
