Atomistic simulations of dislocations in a model BCC multicomponent concentrated solid solution alloy

William Curtin, Céline Varvenne, Satish I Rao

Molecular statics and molecular dynamics simulations are presented for the structure and glide motion of a/2(111) dislocations in a randomly-distributed model-BCC Co16.67Fe36.67Ni16.67Ti30 alloy. Core structure variations along an individual dislocation li ...

Large scale 3-dimensional atomistic simulations of screw dislocations interacting with coherent twin boundaries in Al, Cu and Ni under uniaxial and multiaxial loading conditions

Satish I Rao, Helena Van Swygenhoven

Large scale 3D atomistic simulations are performed to study the interaction between a curved dislocation with a dominant screw character and a Coherent Twin Boundary (CTB). Three FCC metals (Al, Cu and Ni) are addressed using 6 embedded-atom method (EAM) p ...

Atomistic simulations of dislocation behavior in a model FCC multicomponent concentrated solid solution alloy

Satish I Rao

In this work, molecular statics and molecular dynamics simulations of a/2 < 110 > dislocation behavior for a model FCC Co30Fe16.67Ni36.67Ti16.67 alloy are discussed. It is shown that the single FCC phase is elastically stable in this alloy. Local stacking ...

Screw dislocation cross slip at cross-slip plane jogs and screw dipole annihilation in FCC Cu and Ni investigated via atomistic simulations

Satish I Rao

Using atomistic simulations, the effect of jogs on the cross-slip of screw character dislocations and screw-dipole annihilation was examined for both FCC Cu and Ni. The stress-free activation energy for cross-slip at jogs is close to 0.4 eV in Cu, determin ...

Cast aluminium single crystals cross the threshold from bulk to size-dependent stochastic plasticity

Andreas Mortensen, William Curtin, Jérôme Krebs, Csilla Mikó, Suzanne Godelieve Alphonsine Verheyden, Satish I Rao

Metals are known to exhibit mechanical behaviour at the nanoscale different to bulk samples. This transition typically initiates at the micrometre scale, yet existing techniques to produce micrometre-sized samples often introduce artefacts that can influen ...

Microstructurally based cross-slip mechanisms and their effects on dislocation microstructure evolution in fcc crystals

Satish I Rao

Three newly identified cross-slip mechanisms from atomistic simulations of fcc crystals, namely surface, bulk and intersection cross-slip types, were hierarchically informed into discrete dislocation dynamics simulations. The influence of each cross-slip t ...

Progress and challenges in the theory and modeling of complex concentrared alloys

William Curtin, Satish I Rao

The high atomic-scale complexity inherent in the aptly named complex concentrated alloys, or high entropy alloys, presents unique challenges in understanding (1) the structure and motion of defects that control mechanical properties and (2) the thermodynam ...
