Previous studies demonstrate that grain-boundary sliding could accelerate creep rate and give rise to large internal stresses that can lead to damage development, e.g. formation of wedge cracks. The present study provides more insight into…
A novel model based on the Peierls framework of dislocations is developed. The new theory can deal with a dislocation spreading at more than one slip planes. As an example, we study dislocation cross-slip and constriction process of two fcc…
The statistical-thermodynamic dislocation theory developed in previous papers is used here in an analysis of yielding transitions and grain-size effects in polycrystalline solids. Calculations are based on the 1995 experimental results of…
Liquid metal embrittlement (LME) is a common feature of systems in which a low melting point liquid metal is in contact with another, higher melting point, polycrystalline metal. While different systems exhibit different LME fracture…
Microscopic models of the interaction between grain boundaries (GBs) and both dislocations and cracks are of importance in understanding the role of microstructure in altering the mechanical properties of a material. A recently developed…
Slip transmission across $\alpha-\beta$ interfaces is of great significance in understanding the strength of $\alpha-\beta$ Ti alloys for aerospace applications. Molecular statics (MS) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were conducted…
Using a recently developed continuum theory of dislocation dynamics, we derive three new predictions about plasticity and grain boundary formation in crystals. (1) There will be a residual stress jump across grain boundaries and…
Metallic materials under high stress often exhibit deformation localization, manifesting as slip banding. Over seven decades ago, Frank and Read introduced the well-known model of dislocation multiplication at a source, explaining slip band…
The presence of interfaces and grain boundaries significantly impacts the mechanical properties of materials, particularly when dealing with micro- or nano-scale samples. Distinct interactions between dislocations and grain boundaries can…
We modify a theory of flow stress introduced in [arXiv:1803.08247[cond-mat.mtrl-sci]], [arXiv:1809.03628[cond-mat.mes-hall]], [arXiv:1908.09338[cond-mat.mtrl-sci]] for a class of polycrystalline materials with equilibrium and…
The effect of grain size on the flow stress of FCC polycrystals is analyzed by means of a multiscale strategy based on computational homogenization of the polycrystal aggregate. The mechanical behavior of each crystal is given by a…
We study the Grain Boundary (GB) migration based on the underlying disconnection structure and mechanism. Disconnections are line defects that lie solely within a GB and are characterized by both a Burgers vector and a step height, as set…
The mechanical behaviour of Mg-Al alloys can be largely improved by the formation of an intermetallic Laves phase skeleton, in particular the creep strength. Recent nanomechanical studies revealed plasticity by dislocation glide in the…
Grain boundaries (GBs) are central defects for describing polycrystalline materials, and playing major role in a wide-range of physical properties of polycrystals. Control over GB kinetics provides effective means to tailor polycrystal…
Atomic crystals with dislocations deform plastically at low stresses via dislocation glide. Whether dislocation glide occurs in macroscopic frictional granular media has remained unknown. The discrete element method is employed to simulate…
Dislocations govern the properties of any crystals. Yet, how dislocation of pentagonheptagon (5|7) in grain boundaries (GBs) affects the mechanical properties of two-dimensional MoS2 crystals remains poorly known. Using atomistic…
Three-dimensional dislocation dynamics simulations are used to study micro-crack interaction with the first micro-structural barrier in face-centred cubic bi-crystals loaded in high cycle fatigue conditions. In the examined configuration,…
The deformation behaviour of the intermetallic Al$_{2}$Cu-phase was investigated using atomistic simulations and micropillar compression, where slip on the unexpected {211} and {022} slip planes was revealed. Additionally, all possible slip…
Previous simulation and experimental studies have shown that some grain boundaries (GBs) can couple to applied shear stresses and be moved by them, producing shear deformation of the lattice traversed by their motion. While this coupling…
A novel semidiscrete Peierls-Nabarro model is introduced which can be used to study dislocation spreading at more than one slip planes, such as dislocation cross-slip and junctions. The strength of the model, when combined with ab initio…
