The phase-field dislocation dynamics (PFDD) method, originated in 2002, is a continuum
dislocation model that uses order parameters to describe dislocation slips in crystalline …

In this work, we investigate the operation of Frank-Read (FR) sources in a refractory multi-
principal element alloy (MPEA). Simulations of discrete dislocation motion in MPEAs is …

In this work, we calculate the local slip resistances (LSRs) in equal-molar MoNbTi multi-
principal element alloy via molecular static simulations. We consider dislocations of either …

Voids of nanoscale dimensions in irradiated metals can act as obstacles to dislocation
motion and cause strengthening. In this work, nanovoid strengthening and the influences of …

The generalized stacking fault energies (GSFE) and Peierls stresses are strongly related to
the mechanical properties of refractory metals. In this work, the GSFE curves and Peierls …

Confined layer slip (CLS) is considered as the primary mechanism for plastic deformation in
nanolaminates. It depicts the confined motion of a single dislocation between two parallel …

Abstract The Frank-Read (FR) source is a well-known intragranular dislocation source that
plays an important role in size-dependent dislocation multiplication in metallic crystals. In …

The mechanical behavior of body-centered cubic (BCC) materials can be dramatically
affected by the presence of interstitial solute atoms. We present a new phase-field …

In this work, we use density functional theory to calculate the entire generalized stacking
fault energy (GSFE) surface for eight transition metals with a face-centered cubic structure …

In this work, we utilize atomistic simulations to calculate the generalized stacking fault
energies (GSFEs), which are related to the dislocation glide process, on four types of slip …
