Controlling plastic instability

Controlling plastic instability Nanocrystalline alloys with grain sizes less than 100 nanometres are very strong, but tend to fail rapidly during plastic deformation. A new composite alloy with an unusual microstructure is able to achieve high plasticity by controlling the instabilities responsible for early failure. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Nature Materials Springer Journals

Abstract

Nanocrystalline alloys with grain sizes less than 100 nanometres are very strong, but tend to fail rapidly during plastic deformation. A new composite alloy with an unusual microstructure is able to achieve high plasticity by controlling the instabilities responsible for early failure.
