In the past twenty years, new experimental approaches, improved models and progress in simulation techniques have brought new insights into longstanding issues concerning …
Three newly identified cross-slip mechanisms from atomistic simulations of fcc crystals, namely surface, bulk and intersection cross-slip types, were hierarchically informed into …
Despite 5,000 years of metals in technology and 80 years since dislocations were postulated as the carriers of deformation, we still lack fundamental theories of dislocation …
In this work, molecular statics and molecular dynamics simulations of a/2< 110> dislocation behavior for a model FCC Co 30 Fe 16.67 Ni 36.67 Ti 16.67 alloy are discussed. It is shown …
The exceptional combination of strength and ductility in multi-component alloys is often attributed to the interaction of dislocations with the various solute atoms in the alloy. To study …
Cross-slip is a fundamental process of screw dislocation motion and plays an important role in the evolution of work hardening and dislocation structuring in metals. Cross-slip has been …
Cross-slip of screw dislocations plays an important role in the plastic deformation of face- centered cubic (FCC) metals and alloys. Here we use the free-end nudged elastic band …
The energy barrier for homogeneous cross-slip of a screw dislocation in face-centered cubic (FCC) nickel is calculated using atomistic simulations as a function of the Escaig stress on …

Although the favored glide planes in hexagonal close-packed Zr are prismatic, screw dislocations can escape their habit plane to glide in either pyramidal or basal planes. Using …
