Correlation between bonding, vacancy migration mechanisms, and creep in model binary and ternary hcp-Mg solid solutions (open access)

Correlation between bonding, vacancy migration mechanisms, and creep in model binary and ternary hcp-Mg solid solutions

Article compares in-plane (IP) and out-of-plane (OOP) vacancy migration mechanisms in binary Mg–X (Ca, Y, and Gd) and ternary Mg–X (Ca, Y, and Gd)–Zn alloys using density functional theory based first principles computations.

Ideal plasticity and shape memory of nanolamellar high-entropy alloys (open access)

Ideal plasticity and shape memory of nanolamellar high-entropy alloys

Article describes how understanding the relationship among elemental compositions, nanolamellar microstructures, and mechanical properties enables the rational design of high-entropy alloys (HEAs). In this article the authors construct nanolamellar Alx-CoCuFeNi HEAs with alternating high- and low-Al concentration layers and explore their mechanical properties using a combination of molecular dynamic simulation and density functional theory calculation.
