Abstract Fe-Mn-Al-C steels, previously developed in the 1950s for replacing Fe-Cr-Ni steels,
are currently generating a lot of interest with potential applications for structural parts in the …

This is a viewpoint paper on recent progress in the understanding of the microstructure–
property relations of advanced high-strength steels (AHSS). These alloys constitute a class …

In human-made malleable materials, microdamage such as cracking usually limits material
lifetime. Some biological composites, such as bone, have hierarchical microstructures that …

Soft magnetic materials (SMMs) serve in electrical applications and sustainable energy
supply, allowing magnetic flux variation in response to changes in applied magnetic field, at …

A dual-heterogeneous structure with bimodal grain size distributions of both austenite and
B2 phase was developed in a novel ultralight steel by a simple rolling and annealing …

Deformation twinning is rarely found in bulk face-centered cubic (FCC) alloys with very high
stacking fault energy (SFE) under standard loading conditions. Here, based on results from …

Severe lattice distortion is a core effect in the design of multiprincipal element alloys with the
aim to enhance yield strength, a key indicator in structural engineering. Yet, the yield …

An additively manufactured (nominally equiatomic) CrCoNi alloy was processed by laser
powder bed fusion (LPBF). At ambient temperatures (298 K), this medium-entropy alloy …

The thermal deformation behavior of as-forged Al–Zn–Mg-(Cu) aluminum alloy at strain rate
0.001–1 s− 1, temperature 663–783 K and deformation degree 0–60% was studied by …

We present a systematic microstructure oriented mechanical property investigation for a
newly developed class of transformation-induced plasticity-assisted dual-phase high …
