Compression testing of micro-pillars has recently been of great interest to the small-scale
mechanics community. Previous compression tests on single crystal Mo alloy micro-pillars …

A NiAl–Mo eutectic was directionally solidified to produce composites with well-aligned
single-crystal Mo-alloy fibers embedded in a NiAl matrix. They were pre-strained by …

In-situ tensile tests have been performed in a dual beam focused ion beam and scanning
electron microscope on as-grown and prestrained single-crystal molybdenum-alloy (Mo …

Abstract Directionally solidified (DS) NiAl–Mo eutectic composites were strained to plastic
strain values ranging from 0% to 12% to investigate the origin of the previously observed …

Spatially resolved strain distributions in the NiAl matrix and the∼ 550–1000 nm Mo fibers of
a NiAl–Mo eutectic were investigated by microbeam x-ray diffraction. Position sensitive d …

In situ Laue analysis during microcompression reveals plasticity in [001]-oriented,
directionally solidified Mo alloy pillars to start with slip on the {112}〈 111〉 system having …

3D spatially-resolved polychromatic microdiffraction was used to nondestructively obtain
depth-dependent elastic strain gradients and dislocation densities in the constituent phases …

Experimental measurements and simulation results for the evolution of plastic deformation
and hardening in micropillars are compared. The stress–strain response of high-symmetry …

The deformation behavior of [1¯ 25]-oriented Mo micropillars with rectangular cross-sections
having the [111] primary slip direction parallel to one of the two orthogonal side-surfaces has …

Solidification cells and a high density of dislocations are two common features of additively
manufactured (AM) alloys that are processed using techniques such as laser powder bed …
