Heterostructured (HS) materials are a new class of materials that are composed of
heterogeneous zones with dramatically different (> 100%) mechanical or physical …

Conventional alloys are usually based on a single host metal. Recent high-entropy alloys
(HEAs), in contrast, employ multiple principal elements. The strength of HEAs is …

Strength-ductility trade-off is usually an inevitable scenario in most engineering materials,
including metal matrix composites (MMCs) where reinforcement particles significantly …

Achieving high mechanical strength and ductility in age-hardenable Al7000 series (Al–Zn–
Mg) alloys fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) remains challenging. Here, we show …

To develop high-strength Al alloys for selective laser melting (SLM) additive manufacturing,
we designed a series of Al-Mg (-Si)-Sc-Zr alloys and additively manufactured them using …

Abstract Cu–Al–Ni alloys are one class of typical precipitation strengthening alloy, its
mechanical properties are highly sensitive to temperature and strain. In this work, the …

According to Considère necking criterion, enhancing strength of a material will decrease its
elongation to failure, ie ductility, even if the strain hardening rate remains unchanged …

Develo** microstructurally stable alloys with the outstanding strength-ductility combination
at both room temperature and elevated temperatures is highly desirable for advanced …

Nanostructured metallic materials with abundant high-angle grain boundaries exhibit high
strength and good radiation resistance. While the nanoscale grains induce high strength …

Nanostructured metallic materials having nanocrystalline and ultrafine-grained structures
show exceptional mechanical properties, eg superior strength, that are very attractive for …
