This paper reviews recent studies, that not only includes both experiments and modeling
components, but celebrates a close coupling between these techniques, in order to provide …

Recent advances in theory, simulation and experiment are leading to new capabilities for
understanding and characterizing the relation between dislocation substructure evolution …

In the design and development of novel materials that have excellent mechanical properties,
classification and regression methods have been diversely used across mechanical …

The deformation of all materials can be separated into elastic and plastic parts. Measuring
the purely plastic component is complex but crucial to fully characterize, understand, and …

With recent advances in computational modeling and in situ transmission electron
microscopy (TEM) technologies, there have been increased efforts to apply these …

Dislocations play a vital role in the mechanical behavior of crystalline materials during
deformation. To capture dislocation phenomena across all relevant scales, a multiscale …

The lifetime and performance of any engineering component, from nanoscale sensors to
macroscopic structures, are strongly influenced by fracture processes. Fracture itself is a …

Abstract Systems far from equilibrium respond to probes in a history-dependent manner. The
prediction of the system response depends on either knowing the details of that history or …

Nucleation and kinetics of defects at the atomic scale provide the most fundamental
information about the mechanical response of materials and surfaces. Recent advances in …

We develop a nodal dislocation dynamics (DD) model to simulate plastic processes in fcc
crystals. The model explicitly accounts for all slip systems and Burgers vectors observed in …
