Influence of ordered L1₂ precipitation on strain-rate dependent mechanical behavior in a eutectic high entropy alloy (open access)

Influence of ordered L1₂ precipitation on strain-rate dependent mechanical behavior in a eutectic high entropy alloy

This article focuses on Al0.7CoCrFeNi, a lamellar dual-phase (fcc + B2) precipitation-strengthenable eutectic high entropy alloy. The back-stresses from the coherent L12 precipitate were insufficient to cause improvement in twin nucleation, owing to elevated twinning stress under quasi-static testing. However, under dynamic testing high density of twins were observed.

Experimentally validated design principles of heteroatom-doped-graphene-supported calcium single-atom materials for non-dissociative chemisorption solid-state hydrogen storage (open access)

Experimentally validated design principles of heteroatom-doped-graphene-supported calcium single-atom materials for non-dissociative chemisorption solid-state hydrogen storage

This article asserts that non-dissociative chemisorption solid-state storage of hydrogen molecules in host materials is promising to achieve both high hydrogen capacity and uptake rate, but there is the lack of non-dissociative hydrogen storage theories that can guide the rational design of the materials. The authors establish generalized design principle to design such materials via the first-principles calculations, theoretical analysis and focused experimental verifications of a series of heteroatom-doped-graphene-supported Ca single-atom carbon nanomaterials as efficient non-dissociative solid-state hydrogen storage materials.

Transformation- and twinning-induced plasticity in phase-separated bcc Nb-Zr alloys: an atomistic study (open access)

Transformation- and twinning-induced plasticity in phase-separated bcc Nb-Zr alloys: an atomistic study

This article studies the high-strain-rate response of body-centered cubic (bcc)-forming Nb–xZr (x = 0, 25, 50 at.%) alloys. The authors' investigation shows that softening of bcc alloys can result from a coupling of mechanisms involving local solute segregation, displacive phase transformation and twinning occurring across multiple slip planes.
