Abstract
In simple crystalline materials, plastic deformation mostly takes place by the movement of dislocations. Although the underlying mechanisms in these materials are well explored, in complex metallic alloys - crystalline solids containing up to thousands of atoms per unit cell - the defects and deformation mechanisms remain essentially unknown. ... more |
