In this paper, we systematically proposed the strategy of tailoring strain delocalization to
evade long-standing strength-ductility trade-off dilemma. The scientific contribution is to …

Size effects (SEs) exist in many domains, and are caused by changes in the values of
parameters of materials, structures, or systems individually or collectively known as size …

Crystal Plasticity (CP) modeling is a powerful and well established computational materials
science tool to investigate mechanical structure–property relations in crystalline materials. It …

In this study, the ductile fracture of the alloy metal is analyzed. First, the key factors affecting
the initiation of ductile fracture are investigated. Then, a new uncoupled ductile fracture …

The effect of grain size on micro-void evolution and further macroscopic fracture in an
austenite steel 316LN was studied through a series of experiments together with the full-field …

A high cycle fatigue life prediction model based on continuum damage mechanics, crystal
plasticity and critical distance theory is developed. A novel damage evolution law for …

The acoustic softening effect in metals during plastic deformation has been widely
investigated in the past decades. However, the mechanism of such an acoustic plasticity …

High-resolution three-dimensional crystal plasticity simulations are used to investigate
deformation heterogeneity and microstructure evolution during cold rolling of interstitial free …

Grain boundaries (GBs) of metallic materials will become the weakest and most vulnerable
place when the materials deform at high temperature. This could directly affect deformation …

With the rapid development of micro‐electromechanical systems (MEMS), micro/nanoscale
fabrication of 3D metallic structures with complex structures and multifunctions is becoming …
