A simulation strategy based in the finite element model was developed to model the corrosion and mechanical properties of biodegradable Mg scaffolds manufactured by laser power bed fusion after immersion in simulated body fluid. Corrosion…
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…
When the atomic layers in a non-centrosymmetric van der Waals structure slide against each other, the interfacial charge transfer results in a reversal of the structures spontaneous polarization. This phenomenon is known as sliding…
Matallic alloys, such as Al or Cu, or mild steel, display plastic instabilities in a well defined range of temperatures and deformation rates, a phenomenon known as the Portevin-Le Chatelelier (PLC) effect. The stick-slip behavior, or…
Aluminum alloys, the most widely utilized lightweight structural materials, predominantly depend on coherent complex-structured nano-plates to enhance their mechanical properties. Despite several decades of research, the atomic-scale…
The objective of this work is to assess computationally efficient coarse-grained plasticity models against high-fidelity crystal plasticity simulations for magnesium polycrystals over a wide range of textures and grain sizes. A basic…
Upon cooling, glass-forming liquids experience a two-step relaxation associated to the cage rattling and the escape from the cage, and the following decoupling between the \b{eta}- and the {\alpha}-relaxations. The found decoupling…
Annealing Mg-implanted homoepitaxial GaN at temperatures at or above 1400 {\deg}C eliminates the formation of inversion domains and leads to improved dopant activation efficiency. Extended defects in the form of inversion domains contain…
The fundamental understanding of friction of liquids on solid surfaces remains one of the key knowledge gaps in the transport of fluids. While the standard perspective emphasizes the role of wettability and commensurability, recent works…
Recrystallization is a phenomenon in which a plastically deformed polycrystalline microstructure with a high dislocation density transforms into another that has low dislocation density. This evolution is driven by the stored energy in…
The ability of a body-centered cubic metal to deform plastically is limited by the thermally activated glide motion of screw dislocations, which are line defects with a mobility exhibiting complex dependence on temperature, stress, and…
Based on ab initio calculations and metadynamics simulations, we predict that 2H-MoS$_2$, a layered insulator, will metallize under pressures in excess of 20-30 GPa. In the same pressure range, simulations and enthalpy optimization predict…
The interplay between strong Coulomb interactions and randomness has been a long-standing problem in condensed matter physics. According to the scaling theory of localization, in two-dimensional systems of noninteracting or weakly…
The precipitation microstructure of the \gamma' (AlAg2) intermetallic phase has been examined in aluminium-silver-copper alloys. The microstructure developed in an Al-0.90at.%Ag-0.90at.%Cu alloy was significantly different from that…
A phase-field model is developed to simulate the corrosion of Mg alloys in body fluids. The model incorporates both Mg dissolution and the transport of Mg ions in solution, naturally predicting the transition from activation-controlled to…
The influence of solute atoms (Al and Zn) on the deformation mechanisms and the critical resolved shear stress for basal slip in Mg alloys at 298 K and 373 K was ascertained by micropillar compression tests in combination with…
Much effort has been made to modify the properties of transition metal dichalcogenide layers via their environment as a route to new functionalization. However, it remains a challenge to induce large electronic changes without chemically…
If quenched fast enough, a liquid is able to avoid crystallization and will remain in a metastable supercooled state down to the glass transition, with an important increase in viscosity upon further cooling. There are important differences…
The nature of freezing and melting transitions for a system of model colloids interacting by a DLVO potential in a spatially periodic external potential is studied using extensive Monte Carlo simulations. Detailed finite size scaling…
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…
