Currently, no systematic approach exists to simulate the crack initiation and propagation
process in very-high-cycle fatigue including the microstructure sensitivity. A combined crystal …

Ultrasmooth surface of soft metals is required in the field of advanced technology. However,
the strong plasticity of soft metals makes it hard to achieve high surface finishing in …

Electrolytic copper foils (ECFs), owing to their excellent mechanical properties and
conductivity, have become an indispensable component as an anodic current collector in …

This paper reviews the dislocation based models that have been used until now to consider
dislocation effects on the plastic deformation in the crystalline material. We separate two …
