This is a viewpoint paper on recent progress in the understanding of the microstructure–
property relations of advanced high-strength steels (AHSS). These alloys constitute a class …

The overall, macroscopic constitutive behavior of most materials of technological importance
such as fiber-reinforced composites or polycrystals is very much influenced by the …

Abstract Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) based surrogate models constitute an emerging
class of reduced order models of history-dependent material behavior. Recently, the authors …

A high cycle fatigue life prediction model based on continuum damage mechanics, crystal
plasticity and critical distance theory is developed. A novel damage evolution law for …

Mixed-grain structure with millimeter-grade coarse grains (MCGs) is an intolerable defect
often found in heavy forgings. Eliminating this microstructural defect through …

Sheet metal forming (SMF) is one of the most popular technologies for obtaining finished
products in almost every sector of industrial production, especially in the aircraft, automotive …

The gradient nanostructure is machined on the aluminum (Al) alloy by the two-dimensional
ultrasonic surface burnishing process (2D-USBP). The mechanism of why the gradient …

Gradient nanostructure in aluminum alloy, constructed via a two-dimensional ultrasonic
surface burnishing process, displays enhanced tribocorrosion resistance in artificial …

A strain gradient crystal plasticity finite element model is developed to study the evolution of
internal and localized elastic strains in hexagonal close-packed polycrystals. The results of …

Abstract Machine learning (ML) based methods have achieved preliminary success in the
constitutive modeling for single crystals or homogenized polycrystals with remarkable …
