First Principles Study Of Structure And Stacking Fault Energies In Some Metallic Systems
(2010-08-05)Plastic deformation in crystalline materials largely depends on the properties of dislocations, in particular their mobility. While continuum description of deformation of a crystalline metal can be made reasonably well ... -
First-Principles Studies of Point Defects and Phase Transformations in Materials
(2018-01-18)The functional and mechanical properties of a material are often determined by the defects in them. A thorough understanding of the relationship between the defects and the properties allows for tailoring a material’s ... -
Fracture and Deformation in Bulk Metallic Glasses and Composites
(2018-01-11)Plastic flow in bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) localizes into narrow bands, which, in the absence of a microstructure that could obstruct them, propagate unhindered under tensile loading. In constrained deformation conditions ... -
A Fundamental Investigation Of Discrete Liquid, Gas And Fines Flow In A Random Packed Bed Along With Applications
The discontinuous nature of liquid flow in a random packed bed is observed in many chemical engineering and metallurgical applications like blast furnace and heap leaching. So, to model the liquid flow in these systems, ... -
