Combined gold and silicon nano-system has spurred tremendous interest in the scientific community due to its application in different metal-semiconductor electronic devices and solar driven water splitting cells. Silicon, fabricated on gold…

We report the magnetic properties of mechanically milled Co$_{0.2}$Zn$_{0.8}$Fe$_2$O$_4$ spinel oxide. After 24 hours milling of the bulk sample, the XRD spectra show nanostructure with average particle size $\approx$ 20 nm. The as milled…

In this research, the influence of the N+ ion implantation process on the microstructure of a biodegradable Zn-0.8Mg-0.2Sr alloy was investigated using various experimental techniques. Microscopic analysis revealed that a fluence of…

What determines precipitate morphologies in co-precipitating alloy systems? We focus on alloys of two precipitating phases, with precipitates of the fast-precipitating phase acting as heterogeneous nucleation sites for a second phase…

Ferropericlase (Mg,Fe)O is a major lower mantle mineral, and studying its properties is a fundamental step toward understanding the Earth's interior. Here, we performed a first-principles investigation on the properties of iron as an…

In situ straining experiments were performed in a TEM on an equimolar CoCrFeMnNi (Cantor) high entropy alloy at room and cryogenic temperature. Perfect and partial dislocation activity were recorded in both cases. Twinning directly follows…

Strain-controlled fatigue of Mg-1Mn-0.5Nd (wt.\%) alloy were studied by experiment and simulation. The microstructure was made up of a dispersion of strongly texture grains (13\%) embedded in a matrix of grains with a random texture. The…

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…

In piezoelectric ceramics the changes in the phase stabilities versus stress and temperature in the vicinity of the phase boundary play a central role. The present study was dedicated to the classical piezoelectric, lead-zirconate-titanate…

Molecular dynamics (MD) is employed to investigate the plastic deformation mechanisms of single crystalline yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia (YSTZ) nanopillars under uniaxial compression. Simulation results show that the nanoscale…

Order strengthening in nickel-based superalloys is associated with the extra stress required for dislocations to bypass the $\gamma'$ precipitates distributed in the $\gamma$ matrix. A rich variety of bypass mechanism has been identified,…

Nearly all ultrawide-bandgap oxides are affected by hole localization that limits $p$-type conductivity and thus potential applications for these materials. Highly localized holes, also known as hole polarons, trap in the vicinity of…

The creep behaviour and microstructural evolution of a Sn-3Ag-0.5Cu wt.% sample with a columnar microstructure have been investigated through in-situ creep testing under constant stress of 30 MPa at 298 K. This is important, as 298 K is…

The yielding transition, structural relaxation, and mechanical properties of metallic glasses subjected to repeated loading are examined using molecular dynamics simulations. We consider a poorly-annealed Cu-Zr amorphous alloy periodically…

Based on the atomistic studies presented in Part I we develop analytical yield criteria for single crystals that capture the effect of shear stresses other than the Schmid stress (non-glide stresses) on the shear stress needed for…

Zirconium alloys are used as nuclear fuel cladding material due to their mechanical and corrosion resistant properties together with their favorable cross-section for neutron scattering. At running conditions, however, there will be an…

Strengthening in age-hardenable alloys is mainly achieved through nano-scale precipitates whose formation paths from the atomic-scale, solute-enriched entities are rarely analyzed and understood in a directly-verifiable way. Here, we…

Basal slip acts as a secondary deformation mode in hexagonal close-packed titanium and becomes one of the primary mechanisms in titanium alloyed with simple metals. As these solute elements also lead to a pronounced reduction of the energy…

Microstructural features and mechanical properties of an Al-Mg-Si alloy processed by high-pressure torsion have been investigated using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, three-dimensional atom probe, tensile tests and…

A muon-spin rotation/relaxation ($\mu$SR) study of the trilayer Ruddlesden--Popper nickelate Pr$_4$Ni$_3$O$_{10}$ was performed at ambient pressure and under hydrostatic pressure up to 2.2 GPa. Three magnetic transitions were identified at…
