Can Symmetric Tilt Grain Boundaries Represent Polycrystals?

Malik Wagih, Christopher A. Schuh

Grain boundaries control a wide variety of bulk properties in polycrystalline materials, so simulation methods like density functional theory are routinely used to study their stru…

The Spectrum of Interstitial Solute Energies in Polycrystals

Malik Wagih, Christopher A. Schuh

A computational method is presented to measure the spectrum of segregation energies for an interstitial solute at grain boundaries (GBs) in a polycrystal. For the Pd-H system, that…

Crystal orientation and detector distance effects on resolving pseudosymmetry by electron backscatter diffraction

Edward L. Pang, Christopher A. Schuh

Accurately indexing pseudosymmetric materials has long proven challenging for electron backscatter diffraction. The recent emergence of intensity-based indexing approaches promises…

Resolving pseudosymmetry in tetragonal ZrO2 using EBSD with a modified dictionary indexing approach

Edward L. Pang, Peter M. Larsen, Christopher A. Schuh

Resolving pseudosymmetry has long presented a challenge for electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and has been notoriously challenging in the case of tetragonal ZrO2 in particula…

Global optimization for accurate determination of EBSD pattern centers

Edward L. Pang, Peter M. Larsen, Christopher A. Schuh

Accurate pattern center determination has long been a challenge for the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) community and is becoming critically accuracy-limiting for more rece…

A survey of ab-initio calculations shows that segregation-induced grain boundary embrittlement is predicted by bond-breaking arguments

Michael A. Gibson, Christopher A Schuh

The segregation of solute atoms to grain boundaries can have a large influence on the mechanical behavior of polycrystals, particularly in metallic alloys. An overview of 400 calcu…

Segregation-induced changes in grain boundary cohesion and embrittlement in binary alloys

Michael A. Gibson, Christopher A. Schuh

Grain boundary embrittlement occurs when a solute enriches at a grain boundary and lowers its cohesive energy. While grain boundary enrichment is often attributed to equilibrium se…
