Twinning is an important mode of plastic deformation in metallic nanopillars. When twinning occurs on multiple systems, it is possible that twins belonging to different twin systems interact and forms a complex twin-twin junctions.…
A crystallographic displacive model is proposed for the extension twins in magnesium. It is based on a hard-sphere assumption previously used for martensitic transformations. The atomic displacements are established, and the homogeneous…
Contraction twinning in magnesium alloys leads to new grains that are misoriented from the parent grain by a rotation of 56 deg around the a-axis. The classical theory of deformation twinning does not precise the atomic displacements and…
The cyclic deformation behavior of extruded Mg-8.5wt.%Al alloy with a conventional extrusion texture and a modified texture is systematically investigated by in-situ neutron diffraction and elastic viscoplastic self-consistent (EVPSC)…
Deformation twinning significantly influences the microstructure, texture, and mechanical properties of metals, necessitating comprehensive studies of twin formation and interactions. While experimental methods excel at analyzing individual…
Stochastic geometry provides a powerful framework for modelling complex random structures, with applications in physics, materials science, biology, and other fields. The three-dimensional microstructure of polycrystalline materials is…
Capturing twin nucleation in full-field crystal plasticity is a long-standing problem in materials science. The challenge resides mainly in the biased regional lattice transformation associated with twin formation in defiance of its…
Plastic deformation mechanisms have been investigated in the MAX phase Ti2AlN. Nanoindentation has been used to induce plastic deformation in a single grain, and a Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) lamella has been extracted in cross…
Atomistic deformation simulations in the nominally elastic regime are performed for a model binary glass with strain rates as low as $10^{4}$/sec (corresponding to 0.01 shear strain per 1$\mu$sec). A robust elasticity is revealed that…
In this paper, we perform concurrent atomistic-continuum (CAC) simulations to (i) characterize the internal stress induced by the microscale dislocation pileup at an atomically structured interface; (ii) decompose this stress into two…
A numerical strategy to simulate plastic deformation in Mg alloys including dislocation slip and twin propagation is presented. Dislocation slip is included through a crystal plasticity model which is solved using the finite element method…
Plastic deformation of micron-scale crystalline solids exhibits stress-strain curves with significant sample-to-sample variations. It is a pertinent question if this variability is purely random or to some extent predictable. Here we show,…
One of the main material properties altered by rare earth additions in magnesium alloys is texture, which can be specifically adjusted to enhance ductility and formability. The current study aims at illuminating the texture selection…
A new $\beta$-metastable Ti-alloy is designed with the aim to obtain a TWIP alloy but positioned at the limit between the TRIP/TWIP and the TWIP dominated regime. The designed alloy exhibits a large ductility combined with an elevated and…
The formation of basal/prismatic (BP) interfaces accompanying with the nucleation and growth of a reoriented crystal in Mg single-crystals under c-axis tension is investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The BP interfaces nucleate by…
The objective of this work is to deconvolute the interaction of slip, twinning, and notch on the deformation response of an austenitic manganese (Hadfield) steel using detailed finite element simulations. The simulations employ a…
In this paper, the effect of twin boundaries on the crack growth behaviour of single crystal BCC Fe has been investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. The growth of an atomically sharp crack with an orientation of (111)$<$110$>$…
Surface phenomena are increasingly becoming important in exploring nanoscale materials growth and characterization. Consequently, the need for atomistic based simulations is increasing. Nevertheless, relying entirely on quantum mechanical…
In this work, we apply a phase-field modeling framework to elucidate the interplay between nucleation and kinetics in the dynamic evolution of twinning interfaces. The key feature of this phase-field approach is the ability to transparently…
The intrinsic stress in nanomultilayers (NMLs) is typically dominated by interface stress, which is particularly high in immiscible Cu/W NMLs. Here, atomistic simulations with a chemically-accurate neural network potential reveal the role…
