In this paper, we systematically proposed the strategy of tailoring strain delocalization to
evade long-standing strength-ductility trade-off dilemma. The scientific contribution is to …

Advanced experimental and numerical approaches are being developed to capture the
localization of plasticity at the nanometer scale as a function of the multiscale and …

The asymmetric mechanical response and corresponding statistical grain-scale slip/twinning
activity for extruded Mg-(0~ 5 wt%) Y sheets during room-temperature uniaxial tension and …

Metallic parts fabricated by additive manufacturing (AM) usually exhibit unique
microstructures and non-negligible residual stresses compared with the counterparts …

Adjacent grains slip transfer is an important mechanism for metal adaptation to
incompatibilities in intergranular deformation. Thus, this paper investigates slip transmission …

The effect of grain size on micro-void evolution and further macroscopic fracture in an
austenite steel 316LN was studied through a series of experiments together with the full-field …

An ultra-strong and ductile Mg-8.2 Gd-3.8 Y-1Zn-0.4 Zr (wt pct) alloy was developed by
using hot extrusion to modify the microstructure via forced-air cooling and an artificial aging …

A brittle/ductile multilayered composite was designed and fabricated by reaction annealing
of pure Ti and Al foils, and comprised alternating α-Ti (Al) layer, α+ α 2 dual-phase layer, and …

Slip transfer across grain boundaries was studied in annealed polycrystalline Al foils
deformed in uniaxial tension by means of the analysis of the slip traces on the specimen …
