Enabling plastic co-deformation of disparate phases in a laser rapid solidified Sr-modified Al–Si eutectic through partial-dislocation-mediated-plasticity in Si

A Ghosh, W Wu, BP Sahu, J Wang, A Misra - Materials Science and …, 2023 - Elsevier
Nano-scale eutectics, such as rapid solidified Al–Si, exhibit enhanced yield strength and
strain hardening but plasticity is limited by cracking of the hard phase (Si). Mechanisms that …

The Peierls stress of dislocations: an analytic formula

B Joos, MS Duesbery - Physical Review Letters, 1997 - APS
A simple and rigorous analytic formula is derived for the Peierls stress of a dislocation within
the Peierls-Nabarro model. This is both a generalization and a correction of the previously …

Periodic image effects in dislocation modelling

W Cai, VV Bulatob, J Chang, J Li, S Yip - Philosophical Magazine, 2003 - Taylor & Francis
The use of periodic boundary conditions for modelling crystal dislocations is predicated on
one's ability to handle the inevitable image effects. This communication deals with an often …

Dislocation core effects on mobility

W Cai, VV Bulatov, J Chang, J Li, S Yip - Dislocations in solids, 2004 - Elsevier
The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the atomic structure and interactions in the
dislocation core and their effects on dislocation mobility from the standpoint of theoretical …

Liquidlike atomic environments act as plasticity carriers in amorphous silicon

MJ Demkowicz, AS Argon - Physical Review B—Condensed Matter and …, 2005 - APS
Molecular-dynamics simulation of amorphous silicon (a-Si) using the Stillinger-Weber
potential reveals the existence of two distinct atomic environments: one solidlike and the …

On transition temperatures in the plasticity and fracture of semiconductors

P Pirouz, JL Demenet, MH Hong - Philosophical Magazine A, 2001 - Taylor & Francis
Recent experiments on deformation of semiconductors show an abrupt change in the
variation in the critical resolved shear stress τY with temperature T. This implies a change in …

Experimental examination of displacement and strain fields in an edge dislocation core

CW Zhao, YM Xing, CE Zhou, PC Bai - Acta materialia, 2008 - Elsevier
We present a displacement and strain analysis of edge dislocation core in gold. The
displacement and strain field around the edge dislocation were mapped by geometric phase …
