Passive intermodulation (PIM) is a niggling phenomenon that debilitates the performance of
modern communications and navigation systems. PIM products interfere with information …

Film cooling hole structures significantly influence the mechanical behavior of a single
crystal turbine blade. This study investigates the tensile behavior of nickel-based single …

Microstructurally-induced failure mechanisms in crystalline materials with coincident site-
lattice (CSL) high angle grain boundaries (GBs) have been investigated. A multiple-slip rate …

Dislocation density-based evolution formulations that are related to a heterogeneous
microstructure and are physically representative of different crystalline interactions have …

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 …

A dislocation-density crystalline plasticity (DCP) framework based on total and partial
dislocation densities interactions was used to investigate the behavior of Cu/Pb bicrystals …

Modeling predictions and experimental measurements were obtained to characterize the
electro-mechanical response of radio frequency (RF) microelectromechanical (MEM) …

The predominant deformation mode during material failure is shear. In this paper, a crystal
plasticity scheme for explicit time integration codes is developed based on a forward Euler …

The effects of cylindrical holes and secondary orientations on the deformation behavior of Ni-
based single crystals were investigated by in-situ tensile experiments and crystal plasticity …

An inelastic rate-dependent crystalline constitutive formulation and specialized
computational schemes have been developed and used to obtain a detailed understanding …
