Stochastic twinning in confined volumes of Mg: Insights from in-situ micromechanical testing and atomistic simulations
Hexin Wang, Fatim Zahra Mouhib, Chunhua Tian +6
Tensile twinning plays a central role in accommodating <c>-axis plasticity in Mg. In bulk Mg, twinning typically shows a relatively deterministic response with a low critical stres…
Grain boundary segregation spectrum in basal-textured Mg alloys: From solute decoration to structural transition
Anumoy Ganguly, Hexin Wang, Julien Guénolé +4
Mg alloys are promising lightweight structural materials due to their low density and excellent mechanical properties. However, their limited formability and ductility necessitate…
Influence of chemical composition on the room temperature plas-ticity of C15 Ca-Al-Mg Laves phases
Martina Freund, Zhuocheng Xie, Pei-Ling Sun +8
The influence of chemical composition changes on the room temperature mechanical proper-ties in the C15 CaAl2 Laves phase were investigated in two off-stoichiometric compositions w…
Solute Co-Segregation Mechanisms at Low-Angle Grain Boundaries in Magnesium: A Combined Atomic-Scale Experimental and Modeling Study
Risheng Pei, Joé Petrazoller, Achraf Atila +10
Solute segregation at low-angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) critically affects the microstructure and mechanical properties of magnesium (Mg) alloys. In modern alloys containing multi…
