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…
The core structure of dislocations is critical to their mobility, cross slip, and other plastic behaviors. Atomistic simulation of the core structure is limited by the size of first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculation and…
The microstructure of the Ti-Al binary system is an area of great interest as it affects material properties and plasticity. Phase transformations induce microstructural changes; therefore, accurately modeling the phase transformations of…

Screw dislocations in bcc metals display non-planar cores at zero temperature which result in high lattice friction and thermally activated strain rate behavior. In bcc W, electronic structure molecular statics calculations reveal a…
Material characterization in nano-mechanical tests requires precise interatomic potentials for the computation of atomic energies and forces with near-quantum accuracy. For such purposes, we develop a robust neural-network interatomic…
Ab initio simulations of dislocations are essential to build quantitative models of material strength, but the required system sizes are often at or beyond the limit of existing methods. Many important structures are thus missing in the…

Understanding the physical origin of deformation mechanisms in random alloys requires an understanding of their average behavior and, equally important, the role of local fluctuations around the average. Material properties of random alloys…
A well-known drawback of state-of-the-art machine-learning interatomic potentials is their poor ability to extrapolate beyond the training domain. For small-scale problems with tens to hundreds of atoms this can be solved by using active…
