Classical Hall–Petch relation for large grained polycrystals is usually derived using the
model of dislocation pile-up first investigated mathematically by Nabarro and coworkers. In …

Disclinations together with dislocations represent a class of linear defects in solids.
Disclinations are characterized by typical singularities and the property of multi-value of the …

Research trends in metal plasticity over the past 25years are briefly reviewed. The myriad of
length scales at which phenomena involving microstructure rearrangement during plastic …

This book describes behavior of crystalline solids primarily via methods of modern
continuum mechanics. Emphasis is given to geometrically nonlinear descriptions, ie, finite …

Plastic deformation of materials occurs by the motion of defects known as dislocations and
disclinations. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy was used to directly reveal …

Viscoplastic behavior of metallic materials is manifested by collective behavior of lattice
defects at multiple length scales. The full gamut of length scales, from atomic to …

A theoretical model is suggested which describes cooperative action of grain boundary (GB)
sliding and rotational deformation in mechanically loaded nanocrystalline materials …

It seems there is no special need to comment on the term'nanostructure'now, when one often
meets the'nano'words not only in scientific journals but even in newspapers. Moreover …

Aspects of a constitutive model for characterizing crystalline metals containing a distribution
of dislocation and disclination defects are presented. Kinematics, balance laws, and general …

The rotation associated with a tilt wall is derived from elastic displacement fields and shown
to agree with the tilt deduced from Burgers circuits. Transmission of a dislocation through a …
