The effect of ion irradiation on the tensile properties of pure Ni single crystals was
investigated using an in situ micro-mechanical testing device inside a scanning electron …

Irradiation hardening in α α-iron represents a critical factor in nuclear reactor design and
lifetime prediction. The dispersed barrier hardening, Friedel Kroupa Hirsch (FKH), and …

In this work, we investigate the mechanical behavior of multi-phase steels using a continuum
dislocation dynamic model (CDD) coupled with a viscoplastic self-consistent (VPSC) model …

The line tension $\Gamma $ of a dislocation is an important and fundamental property
ubiquitous to continuum scale models of metal plasticity. However, the precise value of …

Interstitial dislocation loops with Burgers vector of< 1 0 0> type are formed in α-iron under
neutron or heavy ion irradiation. As the density and size of these loops increase with …

Precipitation hardening is investigated using dislocation dynamics (DD) simulations. Unlike
classical approaches, precipitates are represented by an interaction potential, completely …

The exact nature of the radiation defects causing hardening in reactor vessel pressure steels
at high doses is not yet clearly determined. While generally it is attributed to solute-rich …

Void strengthening in crystalline materials refers to the increase in yield stress due to the
impediment of dislocation motion by voids. Dislocation dynamics (DD) is a modeling method …

In this study, the atomic processes involving the interaction of an edge dislocation with
carbide precipitates in an iron matrix are investigated by molecular dynamics, utilizing two …

We employ molecular statics simulations to investigate the interactions of circular and
hexagonal 1/2< 1 1 1> prismatic loops in body-centered cubic iron with two parallel {1 1 1} …
