An understanding of hydrogen embrittlement in nickel grain boundaries from first principles
Here, the segregation and accumulation of hydrogen in Ni grain boundaries, and its effects on cohesion and tensile mechanical strength were studied by means of density functional theory simulations. Three model grain boundaries were considered: the Σ3(11¯

Effects of austenitization temperature on the microstructure of 15BCr30 and PL22 boron steels [PDF]
This paper studies boron precipitation and segregation at austenitic grain boundaries for low carbon boron steels types: PL22 and 15BCr30. The following parameters were evaluated: percentage of martensite/bainite, size and nucleation sites of austenitic ...

Grain Boundary Shear Coupling is Not a Grain Boundary Property [PDF]
Shear coupling implies that all grain boundary (GB) migration necessarily creates mechanical stresses/strains and is a key component to the evolution of all polycrystalline microstructures. We present MD simulation data and theoretical analyses that demonstrate the GB shear coupling is not an intrinsic GB property, but rather strongly depends on the ...

Pipe and grain boundary diffusion of He in UO₂ [PDF]
Molecular dynamics simulations have been conducted to study the effects of dislocations and grain boundaries on He diffusion in UO2. Calculations were carried out for the {100}, {110} and {111} h110i edge dislocations, the screw h110i dislocation and Σ5,

Diffraction and near-zero transmission of flexural phonons at graphene grain boundaries [PDF]
Graphene grain boundaries are known to affect phonon transport and thermal conductivity, suggesting that they may be used to engineer the phononic properties of graphene.

The role of grain boundaries in solid-state Li-metal batteries
Despite the potential advantages promised by solid-state batteries, the success of solid-state electrolytes has not yet been fully realised. This is due in part to the lower ionic conductivity of solid electrolytes.
