Nanostructured metallic materials having nanocrystalline and ultrafine-grained structures
show exceptional mechanical properties, eg superior strength, that are very attractive for …

Classical Hall–Petch relation for large grained polycrystals is usually derived using the
model of dislocation pile-up first investigated mathematically by Nabarro and coworkers. In …

In situ nanoindentation within a transmission electron microscope is used to investigate the
deformation mechanisms in ultrafine-grained Al films. Deformation-induced grain growth …

A theoretical model is suggested which describes cooperative action of grain boundary (GB)
sliding and rotational deformation in mechanically loaded nanocrystalline materials …

It seems there is no special need to comment on the term'nanostructure'now, when one often
meets the'nano'words not only in scientific journals but even in newspapers. Moreover …

A theoretical model is suggested which describes the generation and evolution of nanoscale
cracks (nanocracks) at triple junctions of grain boundaries in deformed nanocrystalline …

An overview of theoretical models of plastic deformation and diffusion processes in
nanocrystalline (nano–grained) materials is presented. The key experimentally detected …

Theoretical models are suggested which describe transformations of grain boundaries in
nanocrystalline materials under plastic deformation. We consider such transformations as …

A grain size-dependent model is theoretically suggested to describe the combined effects of
special rotational deformation and dislocations near a mode I crack tip on the fracture …

A theoretical model is suggested which describes the effect of special rotational deformation
on crack growth in deformed nanocrystalline ceramics and metals. Within the model, the …
