First-principles computation methods play an important role in developing and designing
new magnesium alloys. In this article, we present an overview of the first-principles modeling …

Mechanical and fatigue performance of γ-γ′ Ni-base superalloys are strongly affected by
the antiphase boundary energy (APBE) of the γ′ precipitates which, in turn, is dictated by …

The atomistic structural modification and ionic diffusivity in 8YSZ at elevated temperature
with the presence of an external electric field (E-field) were investigated by molecular …

Understanding the interaction of hydrogen (H) with defects has been recognized as a central
aspect in hydrogen-induced damages in metals. In this work, the role of coherent and semi …

Dendritic microstructural evolution during the solidification of Mg-Zn alloys was investigated
as a function of Zn concentration using in situ synchrotron X-ray tomography. We reveal that …

We examined the interfacial reactions between Sn–3.0 Ag–0.5 Cu (SAC305)
alloy/FeCoNiMn (FCNM) high-entropy alloy (HEA) and Sn–58Bi (SB58)/FCNM. FCNM …

With nanoscale reinforcements resulting in a high density of matrix/reinforcer interfaces,
metal matrix nanocomposite (MMNC) materials behave differently from their micro …

The fundamental understanding of interface properties is crucial in materials design and
lifetime predictions. In this work, the stability, adhesion and impurity-induced embrittlement …

Nano-crystal domain structures formed in a MgO barrier and their effects on tunnel
magnetoresistance (TMR) in epitaxial fcc-Co 90 Fe 10 (CoFe)(111)/MgO (111)/CoFe (111) …

In this manuscript, ceramic substrates with different adhesion layers were prepared by the
direct-plated-copper (DPC) method. Microstructure and mechanical properties were …
