Of current importance for alloy design is controlling chemical ordering through processing routes to optimize an alloy's mechanical properties for a desired application. However, characterization of chemical ordering remains an ongoing…
We have studied and resolved occupancy correlations in the existing average structure model of the complex metallic alloy xi'-Al-Pd-Mn [Boudard et al., Phil. Mag. A, 74, 939 (1996)], which has approximately 320 atoms in the unit cell and…
Structural correlations at a liquid-solid interface were explored with molecular dynamics simulations of a model aluminium system using the Ercolessi-Adams potential and up to 4320 atoms. Substrate atoms were pinned to their equilibrium…
Transport phenomena are studied for a binary (AB) alloy on a rigid square lattice with nearest-neighbor attraction between unlike particles, assuming a small concentration $c_v$ of vacancies $V$ being present, to which $A(B)$ particles can…
What determines precipitate morphologies in co-precipitating alloy systems? We focus on alloys of two precipitating phases, with precipitates of the fast-precipitating phase acting as heterogeneous nucleation sites for a second phase…
We explore progress in understanding the behaviour of cation conducting glasses, within the context of an evolving ''dynamic structure model'' (DSM). This behaviour includes: in single cation glasses a strong dependence of ion mobility on…
The structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of (100)-oriented Co$_{2}$MnAl/MgO and Co$_{2}$MnAl/GaAs heterostructures are investigated using plane-wave pseudopotential density functional theory. For the Co$_{2}$MnAl/MgO, CoCo-MgMg,…
A simulation strategy based in the finite element model was developed to model the corrosion and mechanical properties of biodegradable Mg scaffolds manufactured by laser power bed fusion after immersion in simulated body fluid. Corrosion…
We present an extensive first-principles database of solute-vacancy, homoatomic, heteroatomic solute-solute, and solute-solute-vacancy binding energies of relevant alloying elements in aluminum. We particularly focus on the systems with…
The structural evolution of oxides in dispersion-strengthened superalloys during laser-powder bed fusion is considered in detail. Alloy chemistry and process parameter effects on oxide structure are assessed through a parameter study on the…
Additively manufactured (AM) aluminum alloys with high strength and thermal stability have broad applications in turbine engines, vacuum pumps, heat exchangers, and many other industrial systems. Employing precipitates with an L1$_2$…
The exceptional mechanical strengths of medium and high-entropy alloys have been attributed to hardening in random solid solutions. Here, we evidence non-random chemical mixings in CrCoNi alloys, resulting from short range ordering. A novel…
Amorphous interfacial complexions have been shown to restrict grain growth and improve damage tolerance in nanocrystalline alloys, with increased chemical complexity stabilizing the complexions themselves. Here, we investigate local…
This paper presents a theoretical model for studying the dynamics of ordering in alloys which exhibit modulated phases. The model is different from the standard time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau description of the evolution of a non-conserved…
Stable and metastable metallic nanoparticles exhibit unique properties compared to the bulk, with potentially important applications for catalysis. This is in particular the case for the AgPt alloy that can exhibit the ordered L1$_1$…
Precipitate strengthening of light metals underpins a large segment of industry.Yet, quantitative understanding of physics involved in precipitate formation is often lacking, especially, about interfacial contribution to the energetics of…
We investigate structural and dynamical properties of moderately polydisperse emulsions across an extended range of droplet volume fractions phgr, encompassing fluid and glassy states up to jamming. Combining experiments and simulations, we…
Alloying magnesium (Mg) with rare earth elements such as yttrium (Y) has been reported to activate the pyramidal <c + a> slip systems and improve the plasticity of Mg at room temperature. However, the origins of such dislocations and their…
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…
Dynamic heterogeneity as one of the most important properties in supercooled liquids has been found for several decades. However, its structural origin remains open for many systems. Here, we propose a new structural parameter to…
