Modeling is an important approach for describing the physical and mechanical properties of
asphalt, which can be employed to analyze the properties and optimize the performance of …

This paper reviews the dislocation based models that have been used until now to consider
dislocation effects on the plastic deformation in the crystalline material. We separate two …

Fatigue is of significant importance to the engineering applications of the structural
materials. High-strength pearlite steel consisting of a ductile ferrite phase and a brittle …

The excellent tribological properties of pearlitic steel can be tracked to the synergistic effect
between ferrite and cementite phases. However, owing to the lack of full understanding of …

It is a common wisdom that metallic materials become brittle once being deformed quickly.
However, here we reveal an abnormal strain-rate-induced brittle-ductile-delamination …

In this work, a novel model of pearlite colony with inclined orientation is proposed for
understanding the deformation behavior of heterogeneous lamellar structures. The …

Inspired by the experimentally observed ferrite-cementite interface damage and ferrite matrix
damage, this work develops a cross-scale method using the cohesive zone model (CZM) as …

This study used scanning electron microscopy with an electron backscatter diffraction
system to study the refinement mechanism of proeutectoid ferrite (Pro-F) and eutectoid ferrite …

Alternating shear stress is a critical factor in the accumulation of damage during rolling
contact fatigue, severely limiting the service life of bearings. However, the specific …

AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel is popular in modern industry, while conventional welding
methods with filler metals produce welded joints with tensile strength (586 MPa) and …
