A GRACE Interatomic Potential for W--Ta Systems: Application to Ta Segregation and Pinning of Shear-Coupled Grain-Boundary Migration

Omar Hussein, Laurent Capolungo, Danny Perez

Tungsten-tantalum alloys are promising plasma-facing materials for fusion reactors, but simulations of their coupled defect, mechanical, and microstructural evolution require an in…

Ductility and Brittle Fracture of Tungsten by Disconnection Pile-up on Twin Boundaries

Omar Hussein, Nicolas Bertin, Jakub Veverka +5

Refractory body-centered cubic (BCC) metals and alloys are of extraordinary importance in modern technological and structural applications. However, their wider adoption in science…

Self-pinning mechanism for grain boundary stabilization

Omar Hussein, Yuri Mishin

Previous research focused on two different mechanisms of microstructure stabilization in alloys: thermodynamic stabilization by reducing the grain boundary (GB) free energy and kin…

A model of full thermodynamic stabilization of nanocrystalline alloys

Omar Hussein, Yuri Mishin

We propose a model of a polycrystalline alloy combining the Potts model for grain orientations with a lattice-gas model for solute thermodynamics and diffusion. The alloy evolution…

A model of thermodynamic stabilization of nanocrystalline grain boundaries in alloy systems

Omar Hussein, Yuri Mishin

Nanocrystalline (NC) materials are intrinsically unstable against grain growth. Significant research efforts have been dedicated to suppressing the grain growth by solute segregati…
