The structure and migration of twin boundaries in tetragonal -Sn: an application of machine learning based interatomic potentials
Ian Chesser, Mashroor Nitol, Esther C. Hessong +7
Although atomistic simulations have contributed significantly to our understanding of twin boundary structure and migration in metals and alloys with hexagonal close packed (HCP) c…
Energetics of the nucleation and glide of disconnection modes in symmetric tilt grain boundaries
Himanshu Joshi, Ian Chesser, Brandon Runnels +1
GBs evolve by the nucleation and glide of disconnections, which are dislocations with a step character. In this work, motivated by recent success in predicting GB properties such a…
Kinetic and Equilibrium Shapes of Cylindrical Grain Boundaries
Anqi Qiu, Caihao Qiu, Ian Chesser +3
In this work, we investigate the shape evolution of rotated, embedded, initially cylindrical grains (with [001] cylinder axis) in Ni under an applied synthetic driving force via mo…
The structure and migration of heavily irradiated grain boundaries and dislocations in Ni in the athermal limit
Ian Chesser, Peter M. Derlet, Avanish Mishra +6
The microstructural evolution at and near pre-existing grain boundaries (GBs) and dislocations in materials under high radiation doses is still poorly understood. In this work, we…
