For every class of polycrystalline materials, the scientific study of grain boundaries as well as
the increasingly widespread practice of grain boundary engineering rely heavily on visual …

Grain boundaries are a main feature of crystalline materials. They play a key role in
determining the properties of materials, especially when grain size decreases and even …

Additively manufactured (AM) metallic parts exhibit substantially different microstructures
compared to those that are conventionally produced. Characterization studies have …

First published in 1997. This monograph provides a complete overview of the coincidence
site lattice model ad its application to grain boundary engineering. Originally propounded …

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

Stress corrosion cracking is a life-limiting factor in many components of nuclear power plant
in which failure of structural components presents a substantial hazard to both safety and …

Grain boundary distribution which includes grain boundary character distribution (ie
distribution of boundaries by the reciprocal density of coincidence sites Σ) as well as …

A general formulation for the disorientation angle distribution function is derived. The
derivation employs the hyperspherical harmonic expansion for orientation distributions, and …

Low-angle grain boundary engineering (LAGBE) which introduces a very high fraction of
LAGBs in 436L type ferritic stainless steel was investigated via texture control by high …

The effect of grain-boundary character on intergranular oxidation has been investigated in a
Ni–40at.% Fe polycrystalline alloy. A difference in the extent of intergranular oxidation …
