In this work, pure Cu with excellent strength and ductility (UTS of 271 MPa, elongation to
fracture of 43.5%, uniform elongation of 30%) was prepared using cold spray additive …

This article reviews recent developments in small-scale mechanical property testing with
some emphasis on intermediate (meso) length scales in complex microstructures and …

Al-Mg based alloys are known to experience dynamic strain aging (DSA) at room
temperature, which is often associated with the diffusion of mobile Mg atoms to dislocation …

dimensional solid Cu octet meso-lattices with characteristic features on the micron-scale
were fabricated and mechanically tested under uniaxial compression. These architected …

We report the synthesis, mechanical properties, and deformation mechanisms of
polycrystalline, platinum nanocylinders of grain size d= 12 nm. The number of grains across …

In meso/micro-scaled plastic deformation, material deformation and ductile fracture are quite
different from those in macro-scale. The roughness of the free surfaces of workpiece …

Testing in the microregime is relevant to many technological issues, including, for example,
evaluating the performance of established plant or new components through removal of …

To analyze the unloading springback of sheet metal foils after micro-bending process, a
constitutive model is proposed based on the surface layer model by which the sheet foil is …

In this research, the interactive effect of grain and specimen sizes on the flow stress of sheet
metal in microforming is investigated via the tensile test of pure copper and numerical …

As a promising microforming process, micro deep drawing has attracted great attention for
manufacturing of microparts with unique cup-features. However, the occurrence of size effect …
