Grain boundaries can block slip-band propagation and generate intense local stress and strain fields that influence subsequent deformation and damage initiation in polycrystalline metals. Conventional geometric criteria, such as Schmid…
An artificial neural network is used to evaluate the effectiveness of six metrics and their combinations to assess whether slip transfers across grain boundaries in coarse-grained oligocrystalline Al foils…
Dislocation velocities and mobilities are studied by Molecular Dynamics simulations for edge and screw dislocations in pure aluminum and nickel, and edge dislocations in Al-2.5%Mg and Al-5.0%Mg random substitutional alloys using EAM…
The kinetics of dislocations is studied with computer simulation at loadings of different intensity. It is established that the dislocations have a few different structural states. The dislocations "with the micropore" play important role…
A continuum theory based on thermodynamics has been developed for modeling diffusional creep of polycrystalline solids. It consists of a coupled problem of vacancy diffusion and mechanics where the vacancy generation/absorption at grain…
Grain boundary roughness can affect electronic and mechanical properties of two-dimensional materials. This roughness depends crucially on the growth process by which the two-dimensional material is formed. To investigate the key mechanisms…
We present a dislocation density-based strain hardening model for single crystal copper through a systematic coarse-graining analysis of more than 200 discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) simulations of plastic deformation under uniaxial…
Predicting the behaviour of complex systems is one of the main goals of science. An important example is plastic deformation of micron-scale crystals, a process mediated by collective dynamics of dislocations, manifested as broadly…
Crack initiation and propagation under high-cycle fatigue conditions have been investigated for a polycrystalline Ni-based superalloy by in-situ synchrotron assisted diffraction and phase contrast tomography. The cracks nucleated along the…
We perform atomistic Monte Carlo simulations of bending a Lennard-Jones single crystal in two dimensions. Dislocations nucleate only at the free surface as there are no sources in the interior of the sample. When dislocations reach…
Dislocations in ceramics have recently gained renewed research interest, in contrast to the traditional belief that ceramics are inherently brittle. Understanding dislocation mechanics in representative oxides is beneficial for effective…
A correlation is established between the macro-scale friction regimes of metals and a transition between two dominant atomistic mechanisms of deformation. Metals tend to exhibit bi-stable friction behavior -- low and converging or high and…
We investigate the depinning transition occurring in dislocation assemblies. In particular, we consider the cases of regularly spaced pileups and low angle grain boundaries interacting with a disordered stress landscape provided by solute…
The deformation and crack initiation mechanisms were analyzed in a textured AZ31B-O Mg alloy subjected to fully-reversed, strain-controlled cyclic deformation along the rolling direction after 50 cycles (approximately 33% of the fatigue…
Dislocations, line defects in crystalline materials, play an essential role in the mechanical[1,2], electrical[3], optical[4], thermal[5], and phase transition[6] properties of these materials. Dislocation motion, an important mechanism…
Grain boundary (GB) migration is a pivotal process that significantly impacts the development of microstructures, thereby influencing the practical performance of polycrystalline materials. Recent advances in 3D experimental techniques have…
Crystal plasticity of sub-micron finite volumes is characterized by the flow of emergent dislocation defects, giving rise to size effects in mechanical properties and avalanche phenomena. In this chapter, we present a minimal model for…
Alkylsilane self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are often used as model substrates for their ease of preparation and hydrophobic properties. We have observed that these atomically smooth monolayers also provide a slip boundary condition for…
We perform a MonteCarlo simulation in order to study the connection between the morphology and the transport properties of grain boundaries (GBs) in graphene. We explore the configurational space of GBs to generate ensembles of realistic…
To examine the microstructural evolution that occurs during transient creep, we deformed olivine aggregates to different strains that spanned the initial transient deformation. Two sets of samples with different initial grain sizes of 5…
