There has been a challenge for many decades to understand how heterogeneities influence the behavior of materials under shock loading, eventually leading to spall formation and …

We examine the effect of grain size on the dynamic failure of tantalum during laser-shock compression and release and identify a significant effect of grain size on spall strength …
The ultimate strength of materials is reached at strain rates approaching the Debye frequency, when the deformation time at the atomic scale approaches the time for atoms to …

Strain rate, temperature, and microstructure play a significant role in the mechanical response of materials. Using non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, we …
Aluminium typically deforms via full dislocations due to its high stacking fault energy. Twinning in aluminium, although difficult, may occur at low temperature and high strain rate …
Nanoscale features present in structural and functional materials affect their macroscopic properties and hence have been extensively studied. As experimental investigations of …

Amorphous metals are increasingly used as advanced engineering materials, due to several desirable properties, like high hardness and ductility, high resilience, high mechanical …
Ductile failure is studied in a bcc HfNbTaZr High-Entropy Alloy (HEA) with a pre-existing void. Using molecular dynamics simulations of uniaxial tensile tests, we explore the effect of …
