Universal Power-Law Strengthening in Metals?
P. M. Derlet, R. Maass
The strength of most metals used in daily life scales with either an internal or external length scale. Empirically, this is characterized by power-laws persisting to six orders of…

Spatial ordering of nano-dislocation loops in ion-irradiated materials
S. L. Dudarev, K. Arakawa, X. Yi +4
Defect microstructures formed in ion-irradiated metals, for example iron or tungsten, often exhibit patterns of spatially ordered nano-scale dislocation loops. We show that such or…

A probabilistic explanation for the size-effect in crystal plasticity
Peter M. Derlet, Robert Maass
In this work, the well known power-law relation between strength and sample size, , is derived from the knowledge that a dislocation network exhibits scale-free behaviour a…
