Using classical molecular dynamics simulation and the Meyer–Entel interaction potential,
we study phase transitions in a biphasic body-centered cubic (bcc)/face-centered cubic Fe …

Despite considerable experimental and theoretical efforts, the underlying atomistic process
of the body-centered cubic (bcc) to hexagonal close-packed (hcp) phase transition in Fe is …

During the phase transitions, diverse states evolve with multiplex phenomena arising from
the critical competition. In this study, a displacive martensitic transformation with a lattice …

We have found that phase transformation can occur in cobalt when subjected to ball milling.
The phase formation of cobalt was found to depend on the milling intensity. Under different …

An unconventional phase transformation from the hexagonal close-packed (hcp) to the face-
centered cubic (fcc) phase in Ti has been reported by previous experimental studies …

An intermediate state of basal-type (B-type) face-centered cubic (FCC) zirconium phase is
firstly reported in as-solidified pure zirconium by means of transmission electron microscopy …

An important theoretical criterion to evaluate the ductility of metals with a body-centered
cubic (bcc) lattice is the mechanical failure mode of their perfect crystals under tension …

The stacking fault energy is closely related to structural phase transformations and can help
to understand plastic deformation mechanisms in materials. Here we perform first principles …

Solid-solid displacive, structural phase transformations typically undergo a discrete
structural change from a parent to a product phase. Coupling electron microscopy, three …

Molecular dynamics (MD) is an effective tool for studying the microstructures in shape
memory alloys at the atomic level. However, microstructural analysis of the results generated …
