We review the recent literature on the simulation of the structure and deformation of
amorphous solids, including oxide and metallic glasses. We consider simulations at different …

Designing microstructure for damage tolerance requires a detailed understanding of how an
advancing crack interacts with the microstructure (and sometimes modifies it locally) at …

Numerical algorithms for discrete dislocation dynamics simulations are investigated for the
purpose of enabling strain hardening simulations of single crystals on massively parallel …

Rule of mixtures are an essential feature of the modeling of plastic deformation in complex
materials in which more than one strain-hardening mechanism is involved. In this work, use …

Recent advances in the processing technology are permitting the manufacture of novel
metallic materials with superior fatigue properties via microstructure tailoring. In the light of …

Superalloy single crystals with cellular-dendritic microstructures and different crystal
orientations were laser-welded under otherwise identical conditions. In this way, single …

We present differences in the mechanical behavior of nanoscale gold and molybdenum
single crystals. A significant strength increase is observed as the size is reduced to 100 nm …

Recent experimental studies have revealed that micrometer-scale face-centered cubic (fcc)
crystals show strong strengthening effects, even at high initial dislocation densities. We use …

The present work emphasises the potentialities of dislocation dynamics simulations for
performing analyses of crystal plasticity and obtaining information that cannot be reached by …

We present a general formalism for incorporating dislocations in Phase Field methods (PFM)
based on the elastic equivalence between a dislocation loop and a platelet inclusion of …
