Phenotypic plasticity of European larch radial growth and wood density along a‐1,000 m elevational gradient [PDF]
Why this research Matters Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism for sedentary long‐living species to adjust to changing environment. Here, we use mature Larix decidua tree‐ring variables collected along an elevational transect in the French Alps to ...

Atomistic simulations of plasticity heterogeneity in gradient nano-grained FCC metals
Gradient nano-grained (GNG) metals are an emerging class of heterogeneous structured materials with extraordinary mechanistic performances and unnatural plasticity mechanisms, which are unachievable in traditional homogeneous nanocrystalline metals. Here,

Simulation of Lueders bands using regularized large strain elasto-plasticity
This paper deals with the numerical simulation of an instability phenomenon called Lueders bands with two regularized material models: viscoplasticity and gradient-enhanced plasticity.

Contact of Rough Surfaces: An Incremental Model Accounting for Strain Gradient Plasticity
In the contact of rough surfaces, most contact patches are at the scale of micrometers, and thus, their contact deformation can be dominated by the size-dependent plasticity. In this paper, we propose a new strategy to analyze the role of strain gradient

Strength-plasticity synergy from ambient to high temperature via gradient-ordering in boride-reinforced WTaV medium-entropy alloy. [PDF]
Developing next-generation hypersonic vehicles necessitates structural materials capable of withstanding extreme thermal gradients. However, conventional alloys usually sacrifice room-temperature plasticity for breakthroughs in high-temperature strength.

Natural-gradient learning for spiking neurons
In many normative theories of synaptic plasticity, weight updates implicitly depend on the chosen parametrization of the weights. This problem relates, for example, to neuronal morphology: synapses which are functionally equivalent in terms of their ...

A Comparison of Plasticity Regularization Approaches for Geodynamic Modeling
The emergence, geometry and activation of faults are intrinsically linked to frictional rheology. The latter is thus a central element in geodynamic simulations which aim at modeling the generation and evolution of fault zones and plate boundaries ...

Burgers tensor flow accounting for cold work and thermal annealing [PDF]
This paper proposes a kinematical-thermal-based constitutive law for the evolution of Burgers tensor during cold work and upon subsequent thermal annealing of a polycrystalline. The proposal is based on the paper by Anand et al. [L. Anand., M. E. Gurtin.,
