Recent developments in the percolation theory of passivation have shown that chemical short-range order (SRO) affects the aqueous passivation behavior of alloys. However, there has been no systematic exploration to quantify these SRO…
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are complex alloys containing multiple elements in high concentrations. Plasticity in HEAs is carried by dislocations, but the random nature of their composition pins dislocations, effectively hindering their…
Local chemical ordering strongly influences the behavior of complex concentrated alloys, yet its characterization remains challenging due to the nanoscale dimensions and scattered spatial distribution of the ordered domains. Here, we study…
Nanoscale multi-phase microstructures observed in multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) such as $\rm AlMo_{0.5}NbTa_{0.5}TiZr$, $\rm Al_{0.5}NbTa_{0.8}Ti_{1.5}V_{0.2}Zr$, $\rm TiZrNbTa$, $\rm AlCoCrFeNi$ and $\rm…
Ultrafine-grained Al alloys produced by high pressure torsion are found to exhibit a very high strength, considerably exceeding the Hall-Petch predictions for the ultrafine grains. The phenomena can be attributed to the unique combination…
Metallic alloys are routinely subjected to nonequilibrium processes during manufacturing, such as rapid solidification and thermomechanical processing. It has been suggested in the high-entropy alloy literature that chemical short-range…
High entropy alloys are a class of materials with many significant improvements in terms of mechanical properties as compared to ``classical'' alloys. The corresponding structure-property relations are not yet entirely clear, but it is…
Due to the vast compositional space of multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs), the rational design of MPEAs for optimized microstructures is difficult. Therefore, a high-throughput first-principles study of Mo-V-Nb-Ti-Zr, a refractory MPEA,…
Multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs) exhibit exceptional properties but face significant challenges in developing accurate machine-learning potentials (MLPs) due to their vast compositional and configurational complexity. Here, we…
Short-range ordering (SRO) in multi-principal element alloys influences material properties such as strength and corrosion. While some degree of SRO is expected at equilibrium, predicting the kinetics of its formation is challenging. We…
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…
Electronic-structure methods based on density-functional theory (DFT) were used to directly quantify the effect of chemical short-range order (SRO) on thermodynamic, structural, and electronic properties of archetypal face-centered-cubic…
Mn enrichment at dislocations in Fe-Mn alloys due to segregation and spinodal decomposition along the dislocation line is studied via modeling and experimental characterization. To model these phenomena, both finite-deformation microscopic…
First-principles alloy theory is used to establish the $\gamma$-surface of Fe-Cr-Ni alloys as function of chemical composition and temperature. The theoretical stacking fault energy (SFE) versus chemistry and temperature trends agree well…
As one of the most abundant interstitial elements, nitrogen (N) is effective in improving yield strength of metallic materials, due to interstitial solid solution strengthening. Doping N can substantially enhance the yield strength but…
We develop a percolation model for face centered cubic binary alloys with chemical short-range order (SRO) to account for chemical ordering/clustering that occurs in nominally random solid solutions. We employ a lattice generation scheme…
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are solid solutions of multiple elements with equal atomic ratios which present an innovative pathway for de novo alloy engineering. While there exist extensive studies to ascertain the important structural…
We investigate the depinning transition occurring in dislocation assemblies. In particular, we consider the cases of regularly spaced pileups and low angle grain boundaries interacting with a disordered stress landscape provided by solute…
The development of machine learning sheds new light on the traditionally complicated problem of thermodynamics in multicomponent alloys. Successful application of such a method, however, strongly depends on the quality of the data and…
This study delves into bcc HfNbTaTiZr refractory high entropy alloys, focusing on the $\frac{1}{2}\langle111\rangle$ screw dislocation core structures. While traditional observations in pure elements often revealed compact dislocation…
