Continuous innovations in design of advanced structural steels are essential for future
progress in manufacturing, automotive and construction industries. Events taking place at …

We use a physically-based crystal plasticity model to predict the yield strength of body-
centered cubic (bcc) tungsten single crystals subjected to uniaxial loading. Our model …

The mechanisms of dislocation/precipitate interactions were analyzed in an Al–Cu alloy
containing a homogeneous dispersion of θ′ precipitates by means of discrete dislocation …

The PLEIADES software environment is devoted to the thermomechanical simulation of
nuclear fuel elements behaviour under irradiation. This platform is co-developed in the …

Since their advent in 2004, high-entropy alloys have allured the field of materials science
and engineering. Laser cladding technology, with its advantages of a small heat-affected …

Creep of single-crystal superalloys is governed by dislocation glide, climb, reactions and
annihilation. Discrete three-dimensional (3D) dislocation dynamics (DDD) simulations are …

In the traditional picture of plasticity in bcc metals, edge dislocations have been assumed to
play a minor role due to their high mobility with respect to screw dislocations, which then …

This study develops an Orowan precipitate hardening equation applicable to twin
propagation. It is derived from a series of two dimensional dislocation dynamics simulations …

Iron single crystals of wide range of orientations are tested in-situ at room temperature in
tension and compression using a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and in tension using …

The interaction between edge dislocations and Guinier-Preston zones in an Al-Cu alloy was
analyzed by means of atomistic simulations. The different thermodynamic functions that …
