High-entropy materials emerged as a field of research in 2004, when the first research on
high-entropy alloys was published. The scope was soon expanded from high-entropy alloys …

Phase-field method (PFM) has become a mainstream computational method for predicting
the evolution of nano and mesoscopic microstructures and properties during materials …

Uniform tensile ductility (UTD) is crucial for the forming/machining capabilities of structural
materials. Normally, planar-slip induced narrow deformation bands localize the plastic …

Surface reconstruction and the associated severe strain propagation have long been
reported as the major cause of cathode failure during fast charging and long-term cycling …

Wear and friction are two unavoidable failures in mechanical systems with moving
components. Hence, the invention of new materials to curtail material losses and frictional …

The energy efficiency of metal–air batteries and water‐splitting techniques is severely
constrained by multiple electronic transfers in the heterogenous oxygen evolution reaction …

Nanotechnology has revealed the science of the nanoscale. The global challenge that will
follow is to build functional materials with the knowledge of nanoscale phenomena. This task …

Medium-and high-entropy alloys (M/HEAs) mix several principal elements with near-
equiatomic composition and represent a model-shift strategy for designing previously …

Continuous industrialization and other human activities have led to severe water quality
deterioration by harmful pollutants. Achieving robust and high-throughput water purification …

Metallurgists have long been accustomed to a trade-off between yield strength and tensile
ductility. Extending previously known strain-hardening mechanisms, the emerging multi …
