The mechanisms of dislocation/precipitate interaction were studied by means of discrete dislocation dynamics within a multiscale approach. Simulations were carried out using the discrete continuous method in combination with a fast Fourier…
The critical resolved shear stress of an Al 4 wt. \% Cu alloy containing a homogeneous distribution of $\theta''$ precipitates was determined by means of dislocation dynamics simulations. The size distribution, shape, orientation and volume…
A multidisciplinary approach is presented to analyse the precipitation process in a model Al-Cu alloy. Although this topic has been extensively studied in the past, most of the investigations are focussed either on transmission electron…
The interaction between edge dislocations and Guinier-Preston zones in an Al-Cu alloy was analyzed by means of atomistic simulations. The different thermodynamic functions that determine the features of these obstacles for the dislocation…
A multiscale approach based on the phase-field model is developed to simulate homogeneous and heterogeneous formation of {\theta}' precipitates during high temperature ageing in Al-Cu alloys. The model parameters that determine the…
The influence of different types of precipitates (either Guinier-Preston zones, $\theta''$ or $\theta'$) on the critical resolved shear stress and strain hardening was determined by means of micropillar compression tests in an Al - 4 wt. \%…
We examine precipitate-induced dynamic strain aging in precipitation-hardened Al-Cu alloys by combining atomistic simulations, kinetic Monte Carlo, and analytical rate theory. Atomistic simulations were used to characterize (1) the…
The mechanical properties of Mg-Al alloys are greatly influenced by the complex intermetallic phase Mg$_{17}$Al$_{12}$, which is the most dominant precipitate found in this alloy system. The interaction of basal edge and 30$^\text{o}$…
The mechanisms of dislocation/precipitate interaction as well as the critical resolved shear stress were determined as a function of temperature in a Mg-4 wt. % Zn alloy by means of micropillar compression tests. It was found that the…
Atomistic simulations were carried out to analyze the interaction between $< a>$ basal dislocations and precipitates in Mg-Al alloys and the associated strengthening mechanisms.
The interaction between edge basal dislocations and $\beta$-Mg$_{17}$Al$_{12}$ precipitates was studied using atomistic simulations. A strategy was developed to insert a lozenge-shaped Mg$_{17}$Al$_{12}$ precipitate with Burgers orientation…
The interaction between Mg edge basal dislocations and rod-shaped $\beta_1'$-MgZn$_2$ precipitates was studied by atomistic simulations using a new interatomic potential. The atomistic model was carefully built taking into account the…
The stress-driven motion of dislocations in crystalline solids, and thus the ensuing plastic deformation process, is greatly influenced by the presence or absence of various point-like defects such as precipitates or solute atoms. These…
A generalized line tension model has been developed to estimate the critical resolved shear stress in precipitation hardened alloys. The model is based in previous line tension models for regular arrays of either impenetrable or shearable…
Precipitation strengthening is one of the most effective methods to design alloys with the desired combination of strength and ductility. The main mechanism of strengthening is generally known to be the interaction between dislocations and…
The present research is the first attempt to systematically quantify the dislocation-precipitate interaction in terms of applied shear stress, precipitate resistance, and the required time to reach the critical state of…
Precipitation during high temperature aging of Al-Cu alloys is analyzed by means of the integration of classical nucleation theory and phase-field simulations into a multiscale modelling approach based on well-established thermodynamics…
The two-dimensional dislocation dynamics approach has been recently used for analyzing plastic deformation in metals and alloys at elevated temperatures. The two-dimensional approach, however, only accounts for the dislocation climbing…
The interaction between dislocations and precipitates plays an important role in the mechanical behavior of alloys. To provide more insight into the physics of this interaction, this research analyzes short-range interactions of an edge…
\theta' (Al2Cu) precipitates in Al-Cu-Ag alloys were examined using high angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM). The precipitates nucleated on dislocation loops on which assemblies of {\gamma}'…
