Abstract Knowledge of the critical resolved shear stress (CRSS) values of different slip
modes is important for accurately modeling plastic deformation of hexagonal materials …

Diffraction peak profile analysis (DPPA) is a valuable method to understand the
microstructure and defects present in a crystalline material. Peak broadening anisotropy …

Slip activity from various slip modes largely determines the yield strength and ductility of Mg
alloys. Solid solution elements in Mg can change the slip activity dramatically. In this paper …

Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) possess remarkable high-temperature mechanical
properties and have significant potential for use in nuclear fission reactors. However, the …

ZrB 2 powders with different dislocation density were synthesised by the self-propagating
high-temperature synthesis (SHS) and carbothermal reduction (CTR) method. The defect …

Long-standing evidence suggests that plasticity in metals may proceed in an intermittent
fashion. While the documentation of intermittency in plastically deforming materials has …

X-ray diffraction peak broadening is discussed in terms of line broadening and rocking-curve
broadening in a novel theoretical description. The nonlocal strain tensor is factorized by …

The dislocation structures of B2 phase in Ti-42Al-6V-1Cr alloy deformed at room
temperature (RT), 700° C and 800° C were investigated in detail. At RT and 700° C, the< …

A new experimental method to determine heterogeneity of shear strains associated with
crystallographic slip in the bulk of ductile, crystalline materials is outlined. The method …

The B2-type intermetallic compounds CoZr and Co 39 Ni 11 Zr 50 were deformed in tension
at low temperatures. While CoZr is ductile down to 4 K, Co 39 Ni 11 Zr 50 becomes brittle …
