We use three-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics simulations (DDD) to study the evolution of interfacial dislocation network (IDN) in particle-strengthened alloy systems subjected to constant stress at high temperatures. We have modified the dislocation mobility laws to incorporate the recovery of the dislocation network by the climb. The microstructure consists of uniformly distributed cuboidal inclusions embedded in the simulation box. Based on the systematic simulations of IDN formation as a function of applied stress for prescribed inter-particle spacing and glide-to-climb mobility ratio, we derive a relation between effective stress and normalized dislocation density. We use link-length analysis to show self-similarity of immobile dislocation links irrespective of the level of applied stress. Moreover, we derive the dependence of effective stress on the ratio between mobile to immobile dislocation density based on the Taylor relation for strain hardening materials. We justify the relation with the help of a theoretical model which takes into account the balance of multiplication and annihilation rates of dislocation density.
Atomistic computations of the Peierls stress in fcc metals are relatively scarce. By way of contrast, there are many more atomistic computations for bcc metals, as well as mixed discrete-continuum computations of the Peierls-Nabarro type for fcc meta
The propagation of dislocations in random crystals is evidenced to be governed by atomic-scale avalanches whose the extension in space and the time intermittency characterizingly diverge at the critical threshold. Our work is the very first atomic-sc
It is well known that diamond does not deform plastically at room temperature and usually fails in catastrophic brittle fracture. Here we demonstrate room-temperature dislocation plasticity in sub-micrometer sized diamond pillars by in-situ mechanica
The stress-driven motion of dislocations in crystalline solids, and thus the ensuing plastic deformation process, is greatly influenced by the presence or absence of various point-like defects such as precipitates or solute atoms. These defects act a
There is a long standing technological problem in which a stress dwell during cyclic loading at room temperature in Ti causes a significant fatigue life reduction. It is thought that localised time dependent plasticity in soft grains oriented for eas
