TL;DR: The Dusseldorf Advanced Material Simulation Kit (DAMASK) as mentioned in this paper is an open, flexible, and easy to use implementation to the scientific community that allows the use and straightforward implementation of different types of constitutive laws and numerical solvers.

TL;DR: In this paper, a plastically dilatational material model is proposed to simulate the mechanical response of non-compact geometries (containing free surfaces) by means of established spectral methods without any particular adaptations.

TL;DR: In this article, in-situ tensile tests along the extrusion axis of Mg-1Mn (wt-pct) were performed at 323, 423, and 523 K, and it was found that contraction twins led to the failure of the material at a relatively low strain, suggesting that this deformation mode is detrimental to the cold formability of wrought Mg alloys.

TL;DR: X-ray diffraction line profile analysis indicates strain anisotropy in TiN thin films as discussed by the authors, where the authors considered direction dependent elastic grain interaction as possible source of the observed anisotropic line broadening.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the role of screw dislocations in the ferrite matrix on the dissolution process of the cementite phase and showed that the screw-dislocations near the iron-cementite interface are mainly responsible for pulling the carbon atoms out of the phase leading to its dissolution.
