Grain growth fundamentally shapes the microstructure of crystalline materials upon annealing, affecting their overall mechanical and functional properties. Recently, it has been rationalized that grain growth in polycrystals does not result…
A theory of flow stress (FS), reviewing and developing our research,e.g. arxiv:1803.08247;1908.09338, is proposed,including yield strength (YS) of PC materials for quasi-static plastic loading for grain of average size d in range…
The present work investigates the role of grain boundary (GB) on the sources of size effects. Up to now, several studies have been conducted to address the role of GBs in size effects from the atomistic point of view. However, a study which…
A simple analytical model of intergranular normal stresses is proposed for a general elastic polycrystalline material with arbitrary shaped and randomly oriented grains under uniform loading. The model provides algebraic expressions for the…
The size distribution of grains is a fundamental characteristic of polycrystalline solids. In the absence of deformation, the grain-size distribution is controlled by normal grain growth. The canonical model of normal grain growth,…
We studied experimentally the effect of grain size and maximum load on the compaction and subsequent relaxation of a granular column when it is subjected to vertical uniaxial compression. The experiments were performed using two different…
Typically, the plastic yield stress of a sample is determined from a stress-strain curve by defining a yield strain and reading off the stress required to attain it. However, it is not a priori clear that yield strengths of microscale…
Strengthening by grain refinement via the Hall-Petch mechanism and softening by nanograin formation via the inverse Hall-Petch mechanism have been the subject of argument for decades, particularly for ultrafine-grained materials. In this…
We utilized synchrotron-based in-situ diffraction and dominant shear deformation to identify, dissect, and quantify the relevant deformation mechanisms in nanocrystalline $\mathrm{Pd}_{90}\mathrm{Au}_{10}$ in the limiting case of grain…
A bonded particle model is used to explore how variations in the material properties of brittle, isotropic solids affect critical behavior in fragmentation. To control material properties, a new model is proposed which includes breakable…
In this work I have studied the effect of disorder and system size in fiber bundle model with a certain range of stress redistribution. The strength of the bundle as well as the failure abruptness is observed with varying disorder, stress…
We study the role of grain size in the rheological behaviour of calcite aggregates in the semi-brittle regime. We conduct triaxial deformation tests on three rocks, Solnhofen limestone, Carrara marble and Wombeyan marble, with average grain…
The ability of grains to rotate can play a crucial role on the collective behavior of granular media. It has been observed in computer simulations that imposing a torque at the contacts modifies the force chains, making support chains less…
We study a scalar lattice model for inter-grain forces in static, non-cohesive, granular materials, obtaining two primary results. (i) The applied stress as a function of overall strain shows a power law dependence with a nontrivial…
We report the effect of system geometry on the clogging of granular material flowing out of flat-bottomed hoppers with variable aperture size D. For such systems, there exists a critical aperture size Dc at which there is a divergence in…
We determine the non-equilibrium grain size distribution during the crystallization of a solid in $d$ dimensions at fixed thermodynamic conditions, for the random nucleation and growth model, and in absence of grain coalescence. Two…
We show that the yielding transition in granular media displays second-order critical-point scaling behavior. We carry out discrete element simulations in the low inertial number limit for frictionless, purely repulsive spherical grains…
Interactions between fluids and granular materials are prevalent on the Earth's surface. In the case of fluid flow over a sediment bed, the fluid imparts a shear stress to the granular materials. When the applied shear stress is above a…
Rate-effects in sheared disordered solids are studied using molecular dynamics simulations of binary Lennard-Jones glasses in two and three dimensions. In the quasistatic (QS) regime, systems exhibit critical behavior: the magnitudes of…
A dense suspension of the cornstarch flowing on a very inclined wall finally forms some ridge-like patterns of the free surface. The onset of pattern formation is the primary target to elucidate the mechanism. In this work, based on the…
