High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are promising materials for high-temperature structural applications such as nuclear reactors due to their outstanding mechanical properties and thermal stability. Instead of the trial-and-error method, it is…
Developing ductile refractory BCC alloys has remained a challenge. The intrinsic ductility (D) of an alloy is the ratio of surface energy ($\gamma_s$) and unstable stacking fault energy ($\gamma_{usfe}$). Lowering the valence electron…
High entropy alloys (HEAs) have attracted substantial interest in recent years. Thus far, most investigations have focused on their applications as structural materials rather than functional materials. In this paper, we show that…
High-entropy alloys (HEAs), which have been intensely studied due to their excellent mechanical properties, generally refer to alloys with multiple equimolar or nearly equimolar elements. According to this definition, Si-Ge-Sn alloys with…
High entropy alloys (HEAs) represent a novel frontier in metallurgical advancements, offering exceptional mechanical properties owing to their unique multicomponent nature. This study explores a novel strategy utilising commodity powders -…
Plasticity in body centered cubic (bcc) refractory metals are largely due to the stress tensor induced either by solute or thermal activation. The mechanism of the solute atom(s) residence causes instability in such metals. Earlier research…
Ti exhibits complex plastic deformation controlled by active dislocation and twinning systems. Understandings on dislocation cores and twin interfaces are currently not complete or quantitative, despite extensive experimental and simulation…
