Metals containing abundant coherent twin boundaries (TBs) are able to sustain substantial
plastic deformation without fracture due to shear-induced TB migration and sliding …

The mechanisms of strengthening and plasticity in columnar-grained metals with
preferentially oriented nano-sized twins have been examined traditionally by considering …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) have been considered as a promising candidate for nuclear
engineering due to their intriguing irradiation tolerance. The microstructure stabilities …

The formation of stacking fault tetrahedra (SFT) based on the vacancy clustering mechanism
and Frank loop in case of face centered cubic (FCC) metals and alloys is widely accepted …

The stacking fault tetrahedron (SFT) is frequently observed in irradiated materials, which
distinctly affects the mechanical properties of matrix materials. This work focuses on the …

It is well known that energetic heavy ion irradiations can often induce defects and ultimately
lead to material degradations. Interfaces, such as high-angle grain boundaries (HAGBs), are …

Metallic materials produce various structural defects in the radiation environment, resulting
in serious degradation of material properties. An important way to improve the radiation …
