Recently, heterostructured (HS) materials, consisting of hard and soft zones with
dramatically different strength, have been developed and received extensive attention …

Heterostructures can effectively break the traditional strength-ductility trade-off dilemma.
However, how the texture of materials with heterostructure under hetero-deformation …

Gradient nano-grained (GNG) metals have shown a better strength-ductility combination
compared to their homogeneous counterparts. In this paper, the mechanical properties and …

Heterostructure metals as a new class of materials can effectively break the traditional
strength–ductility trade-off dilemma. In this study, the extruded sheet with the small extrusion …

Current heterostructured materials demonstrate the high potential to circumvent strength-
ductility tradeoff but face challenges with unconfigurable hetero-zone distribution and …

Heterostructured (HS) material with extraordinary mechanical properties has been regarded
as one of the most promising structural materials. Here, we reported a new strategy for …

Aluminum alloys were used in various fields due to their high specific strength and low
