Blending hydrogen into high-strength pipeline steels for high-pressure transmission may
cause materials' hydrogen embrittlement (HE) failure. Although the hydrogen-induced failure …

Nearly all metals, alloys, ceramics, and their associated composites are polycrystalline in
nature, with grain boundaries that separate well-defined crystalline regions that influence …

Hydrogen drastically embrittles high-strength aluminum alloys, which impedes efforts to
develop ultrastrong components in the aerospace and transportation industries …

Hydrogen energy is a candidate of the “ultimate energy”. However, the quantified evaluation
of hydrogen embrittlement phenomenon remains to be a challenging topic. This paper …

Twinning is a frequent deformation mechanism in nanocrystalline metals, and segregation of
solute atoms at twin boundaries is a thermodynamic process that plays an important role in …

For reasons of wear resistance and better performance, manufacturing tools are frequently
applied with coatings. Such coatings should be made of materials with satisfactory lifetime …

Garnet-type, solid electrolytes, such as Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 (LLZO), are a promising
alternative to liquid electrolytes for lithium-metal batteries. However, such solid-electrolyte …

Molecular dynamics simulations have been carried out to investigate the primary radiation
damage in (U 1-y, Pu y) O 2 solid solution for various temperatures and plutonium contents …

In this work, a practical numerical model with few parameters was proposed for the
prediction of environmental hydrogen embrittlement. The proposed method adopts …

Predicting the properties of grain boundaries poses a challenge because of the complex
relationships between structural and chemical attributes both at the atomic and continuum …
