Journal ArticleDOI
Nano-sized twins induce high rate sensitivity of flow stress in pure copper
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the rate sensitivity of flow stress and the extent of strengthening in polycrystalline copper containing different volume fractions of nano-sized twins, but having the same average grain size.
Journal ArticleDOI
Some critical experiments on the strain-rate sensitivity of nanocrystalline nickel
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple computational model, predicated on the assumption that a rate-sensitive grain boundary affected zone exists, is shown to explain the observed effect of grain size on the rate-dependent plastic response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Approaching theoretical strength in glassy carbon nanolattices.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that pyrolysis of polymeric microlattices can overcome limitations and create ultra-strong glassy carbon nanolattices with single struts shorter than 1 μm and diameters as small as 200 nm, which represent the smallest lattice structures yet produced.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-strength cellular ceramic composites with 3D microarchitecture
TL;DR: This paper demonstrates that materials with a designed microarchitecture, which provides both structural advantages and size-dependent strengthening effects, may be fabricated and produces micro-truss and -shell structures made from alumina–polymer composite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nanolattices: An Emerging Class of Mechanical Metamaterials.

TL;DR: The introduction of a hierarchical architecture is an effective tool in enhancing mechanical properties, and the eventual goal of nanolattice design may be to replicate the intricate hierarchies and functionalities observed in biological materials.
