Research in the field of high-entropy alloys has been surging since the 2010s. As widely
acknowledged, research interests in this field are largely sparked by the enormous …

Micro-and nanomechanical testing has seen a rapid development over the last decade with
miniaturized test rigs and MEMS-based devices providing access to the mechanical …

Local chemical ordering (LCO) in the CrCoNi medium-entropy alloy was investigated by
transmission electron microscopy (TEM) after different annealing treatments and their …

Recent experiments on nanostructured materials, such as nanoparticles, nanowires,
nanotubes, nanopillars, thin films, and nanocrystals have revealed a host of “ultra-strength” …

In Nucleation in Condensed Matter, key theoretical models for nucleation are developed and
experimental data are used to discuss their range of validity. A central aim of this book is to …

Understanding the incipient plastic mechanism in metals is critical for their associated
mechanical properties. While heterogeneous dislocation nucleation from pre-existing …

Nanoindentation has become a commonplace tool for the measurement of mechanical
properties at small scales, but may have even greater importance as a technique for …

This review examines the recent literature that has focused on uniaxial compression
experiments of single crystals at the micrometer scale. Collectively, the studies discovered …

Instrumented nanoindentation was conducted on a FeCoCrMnNi high-entropy alloy with a
single face-centered cubic structure to characterize the nature of incipient plasticity …

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 …
