The size dependence of strength observed in submicrometer face-centered-cubic (fcc)
metallic crystals under uniform deformation depends on the interaction of pre-existing …

The basic dislocation processes responsible for plasticity of fcc and bcc metals are
fundamentally different. Dislocation based deformation in fcc metals is not very sensitive to …

The microstructural origin of strain hardening during plastic deformation in stage II
deformation of face-centered cubic (fcc) metals can be attributed to the increase in …

The mechanical behavior of submicron body-centered cubic (BCC) micro-pillars is
investigated by three-dimensional dislocation dynamics (DD) simulations to better …

Multiscale dislocation dynamic simulations are systematically carried out to reveal the
dislocation mechanism controlling the confined plasticity in coated micropillar. It is found that …

In this paper, we present a dislocation-density-based three-dimensional continuum model,
where the dislocation substructures are represented by pairs of dislocation density potential …

The present paper studies the hardening mechanism in fcc metallic structures during high
rate deformations by incorporating the dislocation network properties. The large scale …

Viscoplastic flow of polycrystalline metallic materials is the result of motion and interaction of
dislocations, line defects of the crystalline structure. In the microstructural/physics-based …

Mechanical annealing has been demonstrated to be an effective method for decreasing the
overall dislocation density in submicron single crystal. However, simultaneously significant …

Effect of solutes, crystal orientation, sample's size, and dislocation density on the
nano/microscale deformation of solute-strengthening Al alloys has been investigated via …
