Hydrogen embrittlement can result in a sudden failure in metallic materials, which is particularly harmful in industrially relevant alloys, such as steels. A more comprehensive understanding of hydrogen interactions with microstructural…
Hydrogen uptake into body-centered cubic (bcc) iron as a root cause for subsequent hydrogen embrittlement, is initiated at the surface. In this paper, we quantify how readily H diffuses from the surface into the bulk. We consider a set of…
First-principles density-functional theory has been used to investigate equilibrium geometries, total energies, and diffusion barriers for H as an interstitial impurity absorbed in $\alpha$-Fe. Internal strains/stresses upon hydrogen…
Modeling hydrogen diffusion and its absorption in traps is a fundamental first step towards the understanding and prediction of hydrogen embrittlement. In this study, a multiscale approach which includes DFT simulations, OkMC, and…
Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) poses a significant challenge in the mechanical integrity of iron and its alloys. This study explores the influence of hydrogen atoms on two distinct grain boundaries (GBs), $\Sigma37$ and $\Sigma3$, in…
First-principles atomistic molecular dynamics simulation in the micro-canonical and canonical ensembles has been used to study the diffusion of interstitial hydrogen in $\alpha$-iron. Hydrogen to Iron ratios between $\theta=1/16 and 1/2…
The electrochemical permeation test is one of the most used methods for characterising hydrogen diffusion in metals. The flux of hydrogen atoms registered in the oxidation cell might be fitted to obtain apparent diffusivities. The magnitude…
Hydrogen embrittlement in metals is strongly governed by hydrogen diffusion and trapping, yet predicting these effects in polycrystalline systems remains challenging. This work introduces a multiscale modeling framework that links atomistic…
In this study, the influence of pure dislocation and hydrogen-dislocation interactions on anelastic response or internal friction relaxation peaks in bcc-iron was investigated. These relaxations are primarily governed by thermally activated…
We present calculations of free energy barriers and diffusivities as functions of temperature for the diffusion of hydrogen in bcc-Fe. This is a fully quantum mechanical approach since the total energy landscape is computed using a new self…
We investigate hydrogen (H) and mono and divacancy-hydrogen complexes (VH$_x$ and V$_2$H$_x$) diffusion in body-centered-cubic (BCC) iron using the kinetic Activation-Relaxation Technique (k-ART), an off-lattice kinetic Monte Carlo approach…
Understanding hydrogen diffusion is critical for improving the reliability and performance of oxide thin-film transistors (TFTs), where hydrogen plays a key role in carrier modulation and bias instability. In this work, we investigate…
In this work, we present an off-lattice Monte Carlo model of accretion and migration of hydrogen atoms on a rough surface of carbon dust grain. The migration of physisorbed atoms by means of thermal diffusion and quantum tunnelling through…
Steel is a key structural material because of its considerable strength and ductility. However, when exposed to hydrogen, it is prone to embrittlement. Mechanistic understanding of the origin of hydrogen embrittlement is hampered by the…
Monte Carlo simulation was carried out to understand the influence of morphological inhomogeneity on carrier diffusion in organic thin films. The morphological inhomogeneity was considered in the simulation by incorporating the regions of…
We investigate the thermodynamics and kinetics of a hydrogen interstitial in magnetic {\alpha}-iron, taking account of the quantum fluctuations of the proton as well as the anharmonicities of lattice vibrations and hydrogen hopping. We show…
Hydrogen diffusion in metals and alloys plays an important role in the discovery of new materials for fuel cell and energy storage technology. While analytic models use hand-selected features that have clear physical ties to hydrogen…
We investigate the effect of hydrogen on the mobility of a screw dislocation in body-centered cubic (bcc) iron using first-principles calculations, and show that an increase of screw dislocation velocity is expected for a limited…
Grand Canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations are performed to study hydrogen physisorption in different nano carbon porous materials made up of different substructures including carbon nanotubes (CNT), graphene sheets and C60. Hydrogen…
Hydrogen-vacancy interactions play an important role in governing hydrogen transport and embrittlement in body-centered cubic (BCC) metals. In this study, a multiscale approach combining density functional theory (DFT) and kinetic Monte…
