By using the strategy of grain boundary engineering (GBE), the strength and ductility ... By using advanced microscopy, ...

Extending the crystal plasticity model [2.1] to investigate how grain pairs interact, to increase our understanding of how deformation traverses interfaces ... of hard precipitates (carbides) at grain ...

Electron microscopy reveals how the sliding deformation of grain boundaries is accomplished atom by atom in a poly-grained metal of platinum. The graphic shows the atomic structure of a grain boundary ...

In hyper-eutectoid alloys the additional, brittle cementite on the pearlite grain boundaries further decreases the ductility of the alloy. The proeutectoid cementite restricts plastic deformation to ...

Hall-Petch strengthening is a phenomenon where decreasing the average grain size of a material leads to increased ... and consolidation of nanocrystalline materials, such as severe plastic deformation ...

In recent years, steel and nonferrous metals with nano-sized crystal grains have been produced by deformation processing to apply extreme levels of plastic deformation ... has a high density of ...

In recent years, steel and nonferrous metals with nano-sized crystal grains have been produced by deformation processing to apply extreme levels of plastic deformation and recrystallize their ...
