Li, J.; Pharr, G. M.; Kirchlechner, C.: Quantitative insights into the dislocation source behavior of twin boundaries suggest a new dislocation source mechanism. Journal of Materials Research 36 (10), pp. 2037 - 2046 (2021)
International research team shows how hydrogen affects Nickel-base superalloys at elevated temperatures. Latest results published in journal Nature Materials.
Here the focus lies on investigating the temperature dependent deformation of material interfaces down to the individual microstructural length-scales, such as grain/phase boundaries or hetero-interfaces, to understand brittle-ductile transitions in deformation and the role of chemistry or crystallography on it.
