Deformation twinning is an important plastic carrier competing with the ordinary dislocation
slip in a broad class of crystalline solids, which critically controls the mechanical properties …

In recent years, considerable research efforts have been directed toward addressing the
room-temperature brittleness of BCC NbMoTaW refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) …

There is a growing interest in High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) due to their outstanding
mechanical properties. Most simulation studies have focused on face-centered cubic (fcc) …

The mechanism of phase transformation from hexagonal close-packed (hcp) to body-
centered-cubic (bcc) structure in Mg single crystal under high pressure is studied by …

Ductile failure is studied in a bcc HfNbTaZr High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) with a pre-existing
void. Using molecular dynamics simulations of uniaxial tensile tests, we explore the effect of …

Slip or twinning is one of the fundamental questions in the deformation studies of metals and
alloys. Internal parameters such as generalized stacking fault energy and size and external …

Nucleation and growth of deformation twins in BCC transition metals have been investigated
in many computational and experimental studies without conclusively describing the critical …

The orientation effect on the twin formation mechanism of body-centered cubic tungsten
nanopillars was systematically investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. The …

Anti-twin has been experimentally observed in body-centered cubic nanopillars, which
naturally raises the reconsideration of twinning pathways at the crack tips. Using molecular …
