Grain-boundary-limited charge transport remains a key bottleneck in polycrystalline thermoelectric materials, where reduced carrier mobility degrades electrical conductivity and suppresses the power factor. Here we present a semi-empirical…
Twist grain boundary (TGB) phases represent liquid crystalline systems with a regular array of defects. In our research, we studied a compound with a stable TGBC phase and established its structure by various experimental techniques. We…
Abnormal grain growth in the presence of second phase particles is investigated with the help of a two-dimensional Monte Carlo simulation. An aggregate of equiaxed grains is considered with constant grain boundary energy and mobility. The…
The ability to use external magnetic fields to influence the microstructure in polycrystalline materials has potential applications in microstructural engineering. To explore this potential and to understand the complex interactions between…
Controlling the morphology of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) plays a key role in their applications. Although chemical vapor deposition can achieve wafer-scale growth of 2D TMDs, a comprehensive theoretical…
We study the interfacial thermal conductance of grain boundaries (GBs) between monolayer graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) sheets using a combined atomistic approach. First, realistic samples containing graphene/h-BN GBs with…
Grain boundaries (GBs) in polycrystalline materials are powerful sinks for irradiation defects. While standard theories assume that the sink efficiency of a grain boundary is defined solely by its character before irradiation, recent…
Abnormal grain growth (AGG) influences the properties of polycrystalline materials; however, the underlying mechanisms, particularly the role of solute segregation at the grain boundary (GB), are difficult to quantify precisely. This study…
This paper investigates the statistical behavior of two-dimensional grain microstructures during grain growth under anisotropic grain boundary characters. We employ the threshold-dynamics method, which allows for unparalleled computational…
The present work investigates the role of grain boundary (GB) on the sources of size effects. Up to now, several studies have been conducted to address the role of GBs in size effects from the atomistic point of view. However, a study which…
We present a novel phase-field approach for investigating solute segregation in a moving grain boundary. In our model, the correct choice of various parameters can control the solute-grain boundary interaction potential, resulting in…
We study the surface shape of two-dimensional piles using experiments and a continuum theory for surface flows of granular materials (the BCRE equations). We first obtain an analytical solution to the BCRE equations with a simple…
We expand on a recent determination of the first global energy spectrum of the ocean's surface geostrophic circulation (Storer et al., 2022) using a coarse-graining (CG) method. We compare spectra from CG to those from spherical harmonics…
Dynamic shear banding under adiabatic conditions in a mesoscale polycrystalline aggregate is studied using a model of mesoscale dislocation mechanics and experiments. The model involves a length scale related to hardening induced by…
The front-capturing Level-Set (LS) method is widely employed in academia and industry to model grain boundary (GB) migration during the microstructure evolution of polycrystalline materials under thermo-mechanical treatments. During…
We present a new model of surface transport in premelted films that is applicable to a wide range of materials close to their melting point. We illustrate its use by applying it to the evolution of a grain boundary groove in a high vapour…
We explore the statistical properties of grain boundaries in the vortex polycrystalline phase of type II superconductors. Treating grain boundaries as arrays of dislocations interacting through linear elasticity, we show that…
Growth of gallium nitride on GaN(0001) surface is modeled by Monte Carlo method. Simulated growth is conducted in N-rich conditions, hence it is controlled by Ga atoms surface diffusion. It is shown that dominating four-body interactions of…
This contribution reports on numerical simulations of 2D granular flows on erodible beds. The broad aim is to investigate whether simple flows of model granular matter exhibits spontaneous oscillatory motion in generic flow conditions, and…
Grain boundaries (GBs) are ubiquitous in large-scale graphene samples, playing a crucial role in their overall performance. Due to their complexity, they are usually investigated as model structures, under the assumption of a fully relaxed…
