Bulk nanostructured (NS) materials processed by severe plastic deformation (SPD) have
received considerable attention for several decades. The physical origin of this processing …

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 …

AISI 304 and 316 austenitic stainless steels were invented in the early 1900s and are still
trusted by materials and mechanical engineers in numerous sectors because of their good …

Stacking faults (SFs), similar to other planar defects such as grain boundaries, twin
boundaries and heterogeneous interfaces, can be tailored to simultaneously increase …

High-entropy alloys (HEAs) represent a new class of materials with excellent mechanical
properties. However, more studies on the fatigue behavior of HEAs are urgently required …

Aluminum matrix composites reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) were prepared
by continuous casting and subsequent rolling. Al-GNPs master alloy, prepared by ball …

Aluminum alloys are widely used in engineering structures due to light weight and corrosion
resistance but aluminum has low yielding and flow strengths. Here we reported super-strong …

Abstract Architecture design enables multi-mechanism coordination of strengthening and
toughening to overcome the strength-ductility trade-off in particulate reinforced metal matrix …

Deformation twins (DTs) and stacking faults (SFs) are rarely found in Cu-20Ni-20Mn alloy,
which limits further strengthening of alloy. Here, we report ultra-strong Cu-20Ni-20Mn alloy …

Soft magnetic materials (SMMs) are indispensable for electromechanical energy conversion
in high-efficiency applications, but they are exposed to increasing mechanical loading …
