Insights on activation enthalpy for non-Schmid slip in body-centered cubic metals

Grain boundary energies in body-centered cubic metals

Atomistic simulations using the embedded atom method were employed to compute the energies of 408 distinct grain boundaries in bcc Fe and Mo. This set includes grain boundaries that have tilt, twist, and mixed character and coincidence site lattices ranging from R3 to R323. The results show that grain boundary energies in Fe and Mo are influenced more by the grain boundary plane orientation tha...

Title A universal relation for the stress dependence of activation energy for slip in body-centered cubic crystals

An Analysis of Lattice Dynamical Angular Force Models for Body Centered Cubic Metals

Present angular force models for lattice dynamical behaviour of body centered cubic (bcc) metals have been analysed for the satisfaction of rotational invariance and general equilibrium conditions. It has been found that most of the angular force models (except that due to Clark et al.) are deficient and leave the lattice under stress. Further it has been inferred that either the axially symmet...

Theory for plasticity of face-centered cubic metals.

The activation of plastic deformation mechanisms determines the mechanical behavior of crystalline materials. However, the complexity of plastic deformation and the lack of a unified theory of plasticity have seriously limited the exploration of the full capacity of metals. Current efforts to design high-strength structural materials in terms of stacking fault energy have not significantly redu...

Pass-Band Optimal Reconstruction on the Body-Centered Cubic Lattice

In this paper, a pass-band optimal reconstruction technique is adapted to the Body-Centered Cubic (BCC) lattice. In order to perform the frequencydomain preprocessing, we derive a practical Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) for BCC-sampled data. In the discrete frequency domain our DFT provides a natural isotropic periodicity on a FaceCentered Cubic (FCC) pattern, unlike the previous method, whi...
