In this paper, systematic molecular dynamics simulations were employed to study
dislocation-graphene interactions in Cu/graphene systems using two carefully selected …

Graphene nanosheets (GNS) can enhance the strength and ductility of metal-based
composites as they can obstruct the propagation of dislocations. The present article employs …

The effects of temperature and grain size on mechanical properties of polycrystalline copper–
graphene nanolayered (PCuGNL) composites are investigated by analytical mechanical …

The fatigue performance of pre-cracked graphene–copper artificial nacre (GrCu nacre)
under cyclic tensile loading is investigated using theoretical analysis and molecular …

Experiments have proved that one solution to improve the ductility of metallic glasses lies in
introducing graphene and synthesizing metallic glass (MG) nanolaminates. In this work …

Graphene has been extensively used in graphene reinforced metal composite, with
strengthening effects due to its ability to block dislocation from propagation during the …

We systematically investigate the wave propagation, plasticity and void collapse, as well as
the effects of porosity, specific surface area and impact velocity, in a set of open-cell …

The roles of interfaces and matrix grain size in the deformation and failure of polycrystalline
Cu–graphene nanolayered (PCuGNL) composites under shear loading are explored with …

The ground state structure of NiTi martensite in experiments and existing theoretical
calculations is the focus of ongoing disagreements. Based on Waitz et al.'s (2004, 2007) …

The lack of ductility, mainly due to shear localization, limits the full exploitation of metallic
glasses (MGs). Such a weakness can be mitigated via introducing graphene nanoplatelets …
