Phase-field method (PFM) has become a mainstream computational method for predicting
the evolution of nano and mesoscopic microstructures and properties during materials …

In this study, a remarkable annealing hardening effect was detected in gradient ultrafine-
grained (UFG) Mg-0.32 Gd-0.11 Zr (at.%) alloy sheet fabricated by sliding friction treatment …

This study investigated the relationship between the Σ3 boundaries, dislocation slip, and
plasticity in pure nickel wires after grain boundary (GB) modification. Both quasi in situ …

Twinned Al–Mg alloys have been reported. However, the role of Mg solute in facilitating the
formation of growth twins remains unclear. By using a precession-assisted crystal orientation …

Abstract Design of heat treatments is related to the key technology for development of nickel-
based single crystal superalloys (Ni-SXs). Based on the full understanding of the …

High entropy alloys (HEAs) with single face-centered cubic (FCC) phase structure can
provide excellent ductility, and microstructures such as twins and dislocations can be …

Crystal defects in metallic materials exert a profound influence on the plastic deformation
process. The interaction mechanism between dislocations and twin boundaries within …
