Research in the field of high-entropy alloys has been surging since the 2010s. As widely
acknowledged, research interests in this field are largely sparked by the enormous …

Micro-and nanomechanical testing has seen a rapid development over the last decade with
miniaturized test rigs and MEMS-based devices providing access to the mechanical …

Refractory high-entropy alloys (HEAs) are a class of emerging multi-component alloys,
showing superior mechanical properties at elevated temperatures and being technologically …

Size effects (SEs) exist in many domains, and are caused by changes in the values of
parameters of materials, structures, or systems individually or collectively known as size …

A material strength depends on its microstructure, which in turn, is controlled by an
engineering process. Strengthening mechanisms like work hardening, precipitate, and grain …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are evolving multi-component intermetallic systems, wherein
multiple principal elements tend to form single solid-solution-like phases with a strong …

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 …

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

The fundamental processes that govern plasticity and determine strength in crystalline
materials at small length scales have been studied for over fifty years,,. Recent studies of …

Solidification cells and a high density of dislocations are two common features of additively
manufactured (AM) alloys that are processed using techniques such as laser powder bed …
