As important structural materials widely used in aerospace and automotive industries,
aluminum alloys are perfect candidates for development of laser metal additive …

Ductile rupture in metals is a phenomenon that affects a wide range of applications from
forming of automotive body panels to failure of pressure vessels. The incipient stage …

In this paper, we systematically proposed the strategy of tailoring strain delocalization to
evade long-standing strength-ductility trade-off dilemma. The scientific contribution is to …

Most industrial alloys contain a matrix phase and dispersed second-phase particles. Several
thermomechanical processing (TMP) steps are usually needed to produce a final product …

Abstract Metastability-engineering, eg, transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP), can
enhance the ductility of alloys, however it often comes at the expense of relatively low yield …

This is a viewpoint paper on recent progress in the understanding of the microstructure–
property relations of advanced high-strength steels (AHSS). These alloys constitute a class …

Abstract Layered Ti-Al metal composite (LMC) was designed and fabricated by hot-rolling
and annealing of pure Ti and Al sheets. The as-prepared composite exhibits high tensile …

Combining the high-entropy alloy (HEA) concept with property requirement for orthopedic
implants, we designed a Ti 20 Zr 20 Nb 20 Ta 20 Mo 20 equiatomic HEA. The arc-melted …

Due to the low thermal stability of crystallographic boundaries, the grain boundary
engineering (GBE) manifests some limits to the fineness and types of microstructures …

In this study, the ductile fracture of the alloy metal is analyzed. First, the key factors affecting
the initiation of ductile fracture are investigated. Then, a new uncoupled ductile fracture …
