A model for the microstructure behaviour and strength evolution in lath martensite

TL;DR: In this article, a new model describing the microstructure and strength of lath martensite is introduced, where the lattice distortion energy within a lath being equal to the strain energy of the dislocation density at the lath boundaries.

Microstructure-based modelling of isotropic and kinematic strain hardening in a precipitation-hardened aluminium alloy

TL;DR: In this paper, a physically-based model for strain hardening, using a modified version of the Kocks-Mecking-Estrin formalism, is presented for the precipitation states that exhibit precipitate bypassing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grain size dependence of the strength of metals: The Hall–Petch effect does not scale as the inverse square root of grain size

TL;DR: The authors showed that the Hall-petch effect is not another size effect sui generis but is the same size effect as that observed in epitaxial thin film growth and in micromechanical testing of small specimens.

About metastable cellular structure in additively manufactured austenitic stainless steels

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the most recent research momentum regarding the formation mechanisms (elemental segregation, dislocation cell and oxide inclusion), the kinetics of the size and morphology, the growth orientation and the thermodynamic stability of these cellular structures by taking AM austenitic stainless steel as an exemplary material.

The influence of silicon in tempered martensite: Understanding the microstructure-properties relationship in 0.5-0.6 wt.% C steels

TL;DR: In this paper, the strengthening contributions in medium-carbon tempered martensite are revealed by using transmission electron microscopy and synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction, the different microstructural features have been captured; these include precipitation, grain boundary, solid solution and dislocation forest strengthening.

Recrystallization and Related Annealing Phenomena

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the extent to which we are able to formulate quantitative, physically-based models which can be applied to metal-forming processes, and the subjects treated in this book are all active research areas and form a major part of at least four regular international conference series.

A Statistical Theory of Solid Solution Hardening

TL;DR: The critical shear stress τc to move a dislocation through a random array of obstacles in the glide plane is calculated using a statistical theory and the theory provides a definite prescription how to combine the concentrations and interaction forces of obstacles of different kinds.
