Deformation twinning is an important plastic carrier competing with the ordinary dislocation
slip in a broad class of crystalline solids, which critically controls the mechanical properties …

Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) have attracted considerable interest due to their
elevated melting points and exceptional softening resistance. Nevertheless, the ambient …

Metastable β titanium alloys with both twinning (TWIP) and martensite transformation (TRIP)
usually exhibit a low yield strength of between 200 and 500 MPa, but high strain hardening …

Abstract The AlCr x NbTiV (x= 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5) high entropy alloys were produced by vacuum
arc melting. The crystal structure, microstructure, density and compression mechanical …

As expected from the alloy design procedure, combined twinning-induced plasticity and
transformation-induced plasticity effects are activated in a metastable β Ti–12 wt.% Mo alloy …

Over the past few decades, titanium (Ti) alloys containing fully or mostly body-centred cubic
β phase in metastable state have received considerable interest due to their elevated …

Abstract β Ti-alloys can achieve a high strain-hardening rate and tensile ductility by taking
advantage of transformation induced plasticity (TRIP) and twinning-induced plasticity (TWIP) …

A multiscale dislocation-based model was built to describe, for the first time, the
microstructural evolution and strain-hardening of {332}⟨ 113⟩ TWIP (twinning-induced …

Abstract {332} twinning, an unusual twinning mode in other body-centered cubic (bcc)
metals and alloys, has been demonstrated to be a fundamental deformation mode in bcc …

A ternary β-metastable titanium Ti–9Mo–6W (wt.%) was designed. A very high work
hardening rate close to 2100 MPa and a uniform deformation larger than 35% were …
