Heterostructures can effectively break the traditional strength-ductility trade-off dilemma.
However, how the texture of materials with heterostructure under hetero-deformation …

This paper investigates the intergranular deformation behavior and its effect on the overall
ductility of a Mg-Gd-Y alloy, using in-situ tension in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) …

Slip transfer mechanism is studied based on in-situ tensile tests performed on an Al-Mg alloy
and high-throughput computing. A statistical analysis of slip transfer is performed for over …

In this study, an in situ SEM/EBSD study on slip-induced extension twinning (S→ T)
behaviors of a Mg–Y alloy was conducted. It shows that the S→ T process cannot be well …

The main attraction of metallic nanolayered composites (MNCs) lies not only with their five-to
ten-fold increases in strength over that of their constituents, but also in the tunability of their …

Deformation twinning is a common plastic deformation mode in polycrystalline magnesium
(Mg), so the interaction between twin boundary (TB) and grain boundary (GB) plays an …

Synchrotron X-ray diffraction was applied to study the evolution of lattice strain and stresses
in both phases of pearlitic steel during a tensile test. The advantage of the methodology …

Deformation twinning is critical to understanding and predicting the heterogenous
deformation of many important material systems, eg, hexagonal metals. In this work, we …

This paper describes the main results from in-situ and ex-situ testing and characterization
studies to reveal the effects of microstructural heterogeneities that develop during plastic …

It is well known that grain boundaries (GBs) have a strong influence on mechanical
properties of polycrystalline materials. Not as well-known is how different GBs interact with …
