One of the main limiting factors in the development of new magnesium (Mg) alloys with
enhanced mechanical behavior is the need to use vast experimental campaigns for
microstructure and property screening. For example, the influence of new alloying additions
on the critical resolved shear stresses (CRSSs) is currently evaluated by a combination of
macroscopic single-crystal experiments and crystal plasticity finite-element simulations
(CPFEM). This time-consuming process could be considerably simplified by the introduction …
