As noted in Wikipedia, skin in the game refers to having 'incurred risk by being involved in
achieving a goal', where 'skin is a synecdoche for the person involved, and game is the …

For millennia, humans have exploited the natural property of metals to get stronger or
harden when mechanically deformed. Ultimately rooted in the motion of dislocations …

It has long been recognized that exposure to irradiation environments could dramatically
degrade the mechanical properties of nuclear structural materials, ie, irradiation-hardening …

High entropy alloys (HEAs) exhibit outstanding radiation resistance over traditional alloys
owing to severe lattice distortion, and therefore, would be regarded as candidate materials …

Particularly in plastically anisotropic crystals, such as hexagonal close packed (HCP)
materials, plastic deformation is realized by slip acting in the small volumes within individual …

Far-field high-energy X-ray diffraction microscopy is used to asses the evolution of slip
system strengths in hexagonal close-packed (HCP) Ti-7Al during tensile deformation in-situ …

A classical crystal plasticity formulation based on dislocation slip was extended to include
the mechanisms of dislocation channelling, with associated strain softening which is …

Using a combination of mechanical testing, scanning electron microscopy, and a unified
crystal plasticity framework for discrete intragranular shear localization, we investigate …

This study presents the novel peridynamic constitutive relations formulated in order to
predict the plastic deformation and damage evolution in irradiated materials. The plastic …

An inverse optimization strategy was developed to determine the single crystal properties
from experimental results of the mechanical behavior of polycrystals. The polycrystal …
