Electronic structure calculations are used to examine the magnetic properties of Fe$_2$P-based alloys and the mechanisms through which the Curie temperature and magnetocrystalline anisotropy can be optimized for specific applications. It is…
We describe a self consistent magnetic tight-binding theory based in an expansion of the Hohenberg-Kohn density functional to second order, about a non spin polarised reference density. We show how a first order expansion about a density…
In the present work, the ideal shear strength ({\tau}_is) of dilute Ni34XZ ternary alloys (X or Z = Al, Co, Cr, Fe, Mn, Mo, Nb, Si, Ti) are predicted by first-principles calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) in terms of pure…
By mimicking the geometrical relation of nano-twin crystals, we propose novel architected twin mechanical metamaterials (TMMs), which can impede local shearing band formation under external loading, thus avoiding global catastrophic…
Interfaces play a substantial role for the functional properties of structured magnetic materials and magnetic multilayers. Modeling the functional behavior of magnetic materials requires the treatment of the relevant phenomena at the…
The mechanical and thermal performance of high-entropy ceramics are critical to their use in extreme conditions. However, the vast composition space of high-entropy ceramic significantly hinders their development with desired mechanical and…
Eutectic high entropy alloys (EHEAs) are emerging as an exciting new class of structural alloys as they have shown very promising mechanical properties. However, how to design these alloys has been a challenge. In this work, a simple…
Defying the conventional wisdom regarding first--order transitions, {\it solid--solid displacive transformations} are often accompanied by pronounced pretransitional phenomena. Generally, these phenomena are indicative of some mesoscopic…
Dual-phase $\gamma$-TiAl and $\alpha_2$-Ti$_{3}$Al alloys exhibit high strength and creep resistance at high temperatures. However, they suffer from low tensile ductility and fracture toughness at room temperature. Experimental studies show…
Quantum conductance calculations on the mechanically deformed monolayers of MoS$_2$ and WS$_2$ were performed using the non-equlibrium Green's functions method combined with the Landauer-B\"{u}ttiker approach for ballistic transport…
We present a real-space formulation and implementation of Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory suited to twisted geometries, and apply it to the study of torsional deformations of X (X = C, Si, Ge, Sn) nanotubes. Our formulation is based on…
We employ physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) to infer properties of biological materials using synthetic data. In particular, we successfully apply PINNs on inferring the thrombus permeability and visco-elastic modulus from thrombus…
The alloying effect on the lattice parameters, isostructural mixing enthalpies and ductility of the ternary nitride systems Cr1-xTMxN (TM=Sc, Y; Ti, Zr, Hf; V, Nb, Ta; Mo, W) in the cubic B1 structure has been investigated using…
Ni-Mn-based Heusler alloys, in particular all-d-metal Ni(-Co)-Mn-Ti, are highly promising materials for energy-efficient solid-state refrigeration as large multicaloric effects can be achieved across their magnetostructural martensitic…
The impact of magnetism on predicted atomic short-range order in three medium- and high-entropy alloys is studied using a first-principles, all-electron, Landau-type linear response theory, coupled with lattice-based atomistic modelling. We…
The two-phase composite approach of Estrin et al. (1998) describes an evolving dislocation cell structure. Mckenzie et al. (2007) enhanced the model to capture the effects of hydrostatic pressure and temperature during severe plastic…
The structure and static magnetic properties - saturation magnetization, perpendicular anisotropy, spectroscopic g-factor, and orbital magnetization - of thin-film 3d transition metal alloys are determined over the full range of alloy…
High-entropy alloys are solid solutions of multiple principal elements, capable of reaching composition and feature regimes inaccessible for dilute materials. Discovering those with valuable properties, however, relies on serendipity, as…
Dislocation slip and deformation twin are widely regarded as two important mechanisms of active competition in the process of plastic deformation. Calculating and comparing the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) of two deformation modes…
In this paper, we present a thorough stress analysis of the Cu-Zr metallic-glass composite with embedded B2 particles subject to a martensitic transformation. Within the framework of the Eshelby theory, we are able to explain, in a…
