Coupling of homogeneous and heterogeneous melting kinetics in polycrystalline materials
Meizhen Xiang, Yi Liao, Guomeng Li +1
Melting kinetics of polycrystalline materials is analyzed on the basis of a new model which explicitly couples homogeneous and heterogeneous melting mechanisms. The distinct featur…

Higher Order Elastic Instabilities of Metals: From Atom to Continuum Level
Kun Wang, Jun Chen, Wenjun Zhu +1
Strain-based theory on elastic instabilities is being widely employed for studying onset of plasticity, phase transition or melting in crystals. And size effects, observed in nano-…
