Extending intergranular normal-stress distributions using symmetries of linear-elastic polycrystalline materials
S. El Shawish
Intergranular normal stresses (INS) are critical in the initiation and evolution of grain boundary damage in polycrystalline materials. To model the effects of such microstructural…

Intergranular normal stress distributions in untextured polycrystalline aggregates
S. El Shawish, J. Hure
From a general point of view, InterGranular Stress-Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC) results from the interplay between mechanical loading and grain boundaries opening. The former leads t…

Ground states of colloidal molecular crystals on periodic substrates
Samir El Shawish, Jure Dobnikar, Emmanuel Trizac
Two dimensional suspensions of spherical colloids subject to periodic external fields exhibit a rich variety of molecular crystalline phases. We study in simulations the ground sta…
