Extreme environments represent numerous harsh environmental conditions, such as
temperature, pressure, corrosion, and radiation. The tolerance of applications in extreme …

Yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) ceramics have been widely applied in areas of high-
temperature thermal protection and nuclear radiation protection during the past decades …

Abstract Graphene (Gr)/Copper (Cu) composites have shown great potential in thermal-
management and information-transport applications. The influences of interface related …

The dynamic transformations and damage behavior of free-standing multi-wall carbon
nanotubes (MWCNTs), carbon nano-onions (CNOs), as well as nanodiamonds (NDs) are …

The effect of high-energy particle irradiation on materials is often detrimental, yet it can be
beneficial as in orienting high-density magnetic alloys by promoting chemical order. 1 …

Interfaces including grain boundaries and hetero‐phase interfaces could withstand the
radiation damage via providing sites for trapping the defects. With the urgent demand for …

It is well known that energetic heavy ion irradiations can often induce defects and ultimately
lead to material degradations. Interfaces, such as high-angle grain boundaries (HAGBs), are …

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) with homogeneous structures (ie, reinforcements with a
uniform size are randomly dispersed in the metal matrix with a uniform grain size …

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) offers unprecedent atomic resolution imaging and
diverse characterizations capabilities, which has been proved to be effective in correlating …

The interaction between edge dislocations and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) embedded into an
Al matrix is investigated. Both pristine and Ni-coated CNTs are considered. It is …
