The yield strength of metals is typically governed by the average grain size through the Hall-
Petch relation, and it usually follows the rule of mixture (ROM) for layered composite …

A heterostructured medium Mn steel with duplex phases (ferrite and austenite) and multiple
morphologies (lath-typed and granular) is fabricated by a novel two-stage warm rolling …

Abstract Knowledge of the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) values of different slip
modes is important for accurately modeling plastic deformation of hexagonal materials …

To fulfill the combination of high strength and ductility, configuration of novel fiber-like
structural TiB reinforced titanium matrix composites was designed and successfully …

A crystal-plasticity finite-element method was used to study the deformation behavior of a
commercially pure titanium Grade 1 sheet upon different strain paths. Prismatic slip …

Restrained by the strength-ductility tradeoff, it is still challenging to develop advanced high-
strength low carbon low alloy (LCLA) steels with superior strength-ductility combinations and …

In this work, we explore the effect of strain rate and crystallographic texture on the hardening
behaviour and ductility of grade 2 commercially pure titanium (CP–Ti) plate at both room …

Optimizing strength and ductility by uniting microstructural heterogeneity and profitable
crystallographic orientation is a challenge due to processing difficulties. Here, we synthesize …

Using a combination of mechanical testing, scanning electron microscopy, and a unified
crystal plasticity framework for discrete intragranular shear localization, we investigate …

The enhancement of strength and ductility of titanium matrix composites (TMCs) is crucial for
lightweighting and expanding their advanced engineering applications. However, it is still a …
