Deformation twinning is an important plastic carrier competing with the ordinary dislocation
slip in a broad class of crystalline solids, which critically controls the mechanical properties …

Cryogenic machining is becoming a sustainable choice due to its extraordinary performance
(such as non-toxic and environmentally friendly) superiority to other traditional coolants and …

Metallic materials experience irreversible deformation with increasing applied stress,
manifested in localized slip events that result in fatigue failure upon repeated cycling. We …

Dislocation structures and residual stresses have tremendous impact over the properties of
alloys produced by fusion-based additive manufacturing (AM) processes. Yet, their origin is …

Abstract Bulk nanostructured (ns)/ultrafine-grained (UFG) metallic materials possess very
high strength, making them attractive for high strength, lightweight and energy efficient …

Refractory multiprincipal element alloys (MPEAs) are promising materials to meet the
demands of aggressive structural applications, yet require fundamentally different avenues …

Pure tungsten and tungsten alloys with minor alloying additions are known to be brittle at
room temperature and have high ductile-to-brittle transition temperatures (DBTT). Improving …

In this paper, the effect of continuous and pulsed current in the gas tungsten arc welding
(GTAW) on the various properties of an AISI 316L stainless steel joints was investigated …

Most next-generation Li ion battery chemistries require a functioning lithium metal (Li)
anode. However, its application in secondary batteries has been inhibited because of …

Twinning is a fundamental deformation mode that competes against dislocation slip in
crystalline solids. In metallic nanostructures, plastic deformation requires higher stresses …
