Atomic migration from metallic contacts, and subsequent filament formation, is recognised as a prevailing mechanism leading to resistive switching in memristors based on two-dimensional materials (2DMs). This study presents a detailed…
The kinetic Brownian motion on the sphere bundle of a Riemannian manifold $M$ is a stochastic process that models a random perturbation of the geodesic flow. If $M$ is a orientable compact constantly curved surface, we show that in the…
Solute segregation along grain boundaries (GBs) profoundly affects their thermodynamic and kinetic behaviors in polycrystalline materials. Recently, the spectral approach has emerged as a powerful tool to predict GB segregation. However,…
Grain boundary (GB) diffusion in polycrystalline materials is a physical phenomenon of great fundamental interest and practical significance. Although the accelerated ("short circuit") atomic transport along GBs has been known for decades,…
We describe numerical solutions of two non potential models of pattern formation in nonequilibrium systems to address the motion and decay of grain boundaries separating domains of stripe configurations of different orientations. We first…
GB migration plays a central role in microstructural evolution. Many experiments and simulations have been conducted to clarify the relationships between GB velocity and various parameters to tailor GB networks. However, the complexity of…
We study the dynamics and morphology of grain growth with anisotropic energy and mobility of grain boundaries using a generalized phase field model. In contrast to previous studies, both inclination and misorientation of the boundaries are…
High energy x-ray diffraction microscopy was used to image the microstructure of $\alpha$-Fe before and after a 600 $^\circ$C anneal. These data were used to determine the areas, curvatures, energies, and velocities of approximately 40,000…
We have characterized the structure of 176 different single-layer graphene grain boundaries using $>$1000 experimental HRTEM images using a semi-automated structure processing routine. We introduce a new algorithm for generating grain…
We study four double-gyroid (DG) grain boundaries (GBs) with different orientations numerically using the Landau--Brazovskii free energy, including the (422) twin boundary studied recently, a network switching GB, and two tilt GBs.…
Grain boundary sliding (GBS) is a key deformation mechanism at high homologous temperatures in polycrystalline materials, however, its intrinsic behavior is often obscured by additional strain accommodation processes. In this study,…
Composite of two kinds of grains is modeled in two-dimension and the elasticity is calculated using molecular dynamics method implementing Gear predictor-corrector of fifth order. It has been observed that same composite concentration can…
Electronic, transport, and spin properties of grain boundaries (GBs) are investigated in electrostatically doped graphene at finite electron densities within the Hartree and Hubbard approximations. We demonstrate that depending on the…
Grain-boundary grooving is a general phenomenon occurring in all polycrystalline materials at the intersection between the grain-boundary and the interface or free surface. It has been studied theoretically for some time. Grain-boundary…
We have systematically investigated the grain boundary (GB) angle dependence of transport properties for NdFeAs(O,F) fabricated on [001]-tilt symmetric MgO bicrystal substrates. In our previous study, NdFeAs(O,F) bicrystal films showed a…
Grain boundaries affect properties of polycrystalline materials. The influence of a boundary is largely determined by its energy. Grain boundary energy is often portrayed as a function of macroscopic boundary parameters representing grain…
Phase transformations in metallic grain boundaries (GBs) present significant fundamental interest in the context of thermodynamics of low-dimensional physical systems. We report on atomistic computer simulations of the Cu-Ag system that…
Nanoindentation is a convenient method to investigate the mechanical properties of materials on small scales by utilizing low loads and small indentation depths. However, the effect of grain boundaries (GB) on the nanoindentation response…
Nanocrystalline (NC) materials are intrinsically unstable against grain growth. Significant research efforts have been dedicated to suppressing the grain growth by solute segregation, including the pursuit of a special NC structure that…
Cellular structures must organize themselves within strict physical constraints, operating with finite resources and well-defined boundaries. Classical systems demonstrate only passive responses to boundaries, from surface energy…
