Rapid modeling of segregation-driven metal-oxide adhesion in high-entropy alloys using macroscopic atom model
Dennis Boakye, Chuang Deng
Accurate prediction of metal-oxide adhesion in high-entropy alloys (HEAs) is challenging because interfacial segregation, atomic environments, and macroscopic thermodynamic quantit…

Disconnection formation via segregation-induced grain boundary phase transitions
Zuoyong Zhang, Chuang Deng
Disconnections, long recognized as the key mediators of grain boundary (GB) kinetics in polycrystalline materials, have traditionally been understood to nucleate through thermal or…

Grain boundary interstitial segregation in substitutional binary alloys
Zuoyong Zhang, Chuang Deng
Grain boundary (GB) segregation is a powerful approach for optimizing the thermal and mechanical properties of metal alloys. In this study, we report significant GB interstitial se…
