This review examines the recent literature that has focused on uniaxial compression
experiments of single crystals at the micrometer scale. Collectively, the studies discovered …

We present a self-contained review of the discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) method for
the numerical investigation of plasticity in crystals, focusing on recent development and …

Size-affected dislocation-mediated plasticity is important in a wide range of materials and
technologies. Here we develop a generalized size-dependent dislocation-based model that …

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 …

The deformation of micro-twinned polycrystalline magnesium (Mg) was studied using three-
dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD). A systematic interaction model between …

This paper describes a numerical, hierarchical multiscale modeling methodology involving
two distinct bridges over three different length scales that predicts the work hardening of face …

In this paper, we present a peridynamic (PD)-based solution for discrete dislocation
dynamics (DDD) problems using the superposition (SP) framework. By replacing the …

We study the properties of strain bursts (dislocation avalanches) occurring in two-
dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics models under quasistatic stress-controlled …

Discrete dislocation dynamics simulations in three dimensions have been used to examine
the role of dislocation multiplication and mobility on the plasticity in small samples under …
