Dislocation microstructures and strain-gradient plasticity with one active slip plane
We study dislocation networks in the plane using the vectorial phase-field model introduced by Ortiz and coworkers, in the limit of small lattice spacing.

Deformation compatibility in a single crystalline Ni superalloy [PDF]
Deformation in materials is often complex and requires rigorous understanding to predict engineering component lifetime. Experimental understanding of deformation requires utilization of advanced characterization techniques, such as high spatial ...

Slip system level strengthening in nano-indentation of single crystalline copper: Numerical study via a non-local CPFEM model [PDF]
A three-dimensional non-local crystal plasticity finite element model (CPFEM) integrating the evolution of geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) and statistically stored dislocations (SSDs) was developed to simulate the nano-indentation of single ...

Defects in Crystalline Packings of Twisted Filament Bundles: II. Dislocations and Grain Boundaries
Twisted and rope-like assemblies of filamentous molecules are common and vital structural elements in cells and tissue of living organisms. We study the intrinsic frustration occurring in these materials between the two-dimensional organization of ...

Geometrically necessary dislocations and strain-gradient plasticity: a few critical issues [PDF]
Abstract A few issues related to the modeling of size effects in terms of geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) are critically discussed, viz. strain hardening, length scale dependence, types of GND arrays. Consequences are drawn regarding the continuum modeling of size effects in plasticity.

Atomic Size Misfit for Electrocatalytic Small Molecule Activation
This review explores the application and mechanisms of atomic size misfit in catalysis for small molecule activation, focusing on how structural defects and electronic properties can effectively lower the energy barriers of chemical bonds in molecules like H2O, CO2, and N2.

Heterostructure enables new deformation mechanisms to enhance strength and work hardening
Reflection of geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) has been reported effective in increasing strength and ductility of dual-phase alloys. However, this mechanism is rarely observed in conventional single-phase alloys. Here we report the activation

Additional hardening in harmonic structured materials by strain partitioning and back stress
Deformation behavior of a harmonic structured material (HSM), core–shell 304L stainless steel, is investigated using micro-digital image correlation (micro-DIC). High strain-partitioning between core and shell is observed.

Defect Analysis of the β– to γ–Ga2O3 Phase Transition
The role of defects at all the relevant stages of the β$\beta$‐ to γ$\gamma$‐Ga2O3 polymorph transition is investigated using a multi method approach. The positron annihilation spectroscopy based results show that the defect density decreases after the transition, and that changes in defect configuration within the γ phase occur with increasing ...
