Prismatic slip of the screw< a> dislocation in magnesium at temperatures≳ 150 K is
understood to be governed by double-cross-slip of the stable basal screw through the …

Poor ductility heavily limits the industrial application of magnesium (Mg) alloys, and
pyramidal dislocations are an important deformation mode for ductility enhancement. In this …

Prismatic slip in magnesium at temperatures T≲ 150 K occurs at∼ 100 MPa independent of
temperature, and jerky flow due to large prismatic dislocation glide distances is observed; …

Twin nucleation in high symmetry cubic structures is closely related to the activities of
dissociated lattice dislocations. However, in low symmetry hexagonal close-packed (HCP) …

Magnesium (Mg), as the lightest structural metal, suffers from poor ductility and formability.
Although in literature, the cross-slips in Mg have been identified as the key factors that are …

Twin–twin interactions are an important component of the microstructural evolution of
hexagonal close-packed metals undergoing plasticity. These interactions are prevalent …

Accurate predictions of the dislocation behavior of magnesium (Mg) by molecular dynamics
(MD) simulations are essential for studying the fundamental mechanisms of deformation and …

The pyramidal II< c+ a> edge-dislocation in Mg causes a transformation into the basal-
dissociated< c+ a> dislocation, in which two partial< c+ a> dislocations aligned along the …

This work was committed to conducting atomistic simulations for exploring the crystal
orientation dependence of fracture behavior in hexagonal close-packed (HCP) magnesium …

Hot-dip Zn coating or galvanizing is an important process for high strength steels that are
extensively used in automotive industries. During galvanizing, Fe in the steel substrate …
