Efficient lattice Green's function method for bounded domain problems

William Curtin, Max Ludwig Hodapp, Ankit Gupta

The lattice Green's function method (LGFM) is the discrete counterpart of the continuum boundary element method and is a natural approach for solving intrinsically discrete solid mechanics problems that arise in atomistic-continuum coupling methods. Here, ...

Theory-guided design of high-strength, high-melting point, ductile, low-density, single-phase BCC high entropy alloys

Christian Leinenbach, William Curtin, Carolina Baruffi, You Rao

The search for new high-temperature alloys that can enable higher-efficiency/lower-emissions power generation has accelerated with the discovery of body-centered cubic (bcc) refractory High Entropy Alloys (HEAs). These many-component, non-dilute alloys in ...

Machine learning for metallurgy IV: A neural network potential for Al-Cu-Mg and Al-Cu-Mg-Zn

William Curtin, Daniel John Gilles Marchand

Most metallurgical properties, e.g., dislocation propagation, precipitate formation, can only be fully understood atomistically but most phenomena and quantities of interest cannot be measured experimentally. Accurate simulation methods are essential but f ...

Screw-controlled strength of BCC non-dilute and high-entropy alloys

William Curtin, Alireza Ghafarollahi

The impressive mechanical properties of single phase BCC High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) has renewed interest in understanding the mechanisms controlling strength in BCC alloys. Theory and simulation of strengthening of screw dislocations in HEAs shows that scr ...

Theory of spontaneous grain boundary roughening in high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Carolina Baruffi

High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) are a new broad class of near-random solid solution alloys that can possess some impressive mechanical and physical properties including high stability against grain growth (i.e. low grain boundary (GB) mobility). Here, it is sho ...

Progress and challenges in the theory and modeling of complex concentrared alloys

William Curtin, Satish I Rao

The high atomic-scale complexity inherent in the aptly named complex concentrated alloys, or high entropy alloys, presents unique challenges in understanding (1) the structure and motion of defects that control mechanical properties and (2) the thermodynam ...

High energy barriers for edge dislocation motion in body-centered cubic high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Francesco Maresca, Alireza Ghafarollahi, Recep Ekin Kubilay

Recent theory proposes that edge dislocations in random body-centered cubic (BCC) high entropy alloys have high barriers for motion, conveying high strengths up to high temperatures. Here, the energy barriers for edge motion are computed for two model allo ...

Machine learning for metallurgy III: A neural network potential for Al-Mg-Si

Albert Johann Glensk, William Curtin, Michele Ceriotti, Daniel John Gilles Marchand, Abhinav Jain

High-strengthmetal alloys achieve their performance via careful control of the nucleation, growth, and kinetics of precipitation. Alloy mechanical properties are then controlled by atomic scale phenomena such as shearing of the precipitates by dislocations ...

Giant hardening response in AlMgZn(Cu) alloys

William Curtin, Daniel John Gilles Marchand

This study presents a thermomechanical processing concept which is capable of exploiting the full industrial application potential of recently introduced AlMgZn(Cu) alloys. The beneficial linkage of alloy design and processing allows not only to satisfy th ...

Modeling peak-aged precipitate strengthening in Al–Mg–Si alloys

William Curtin, Yi Hu

Strengthening by needle-shaped precipitates is critical in Al–Mg–Si alloys. Here, the strengthening is studied computationally at the peak-aged condition where precipitate shearing and Orowan looping are usually considered to have equal strengths. Pseudo-r ...

Strength can be controlled by edge dislocations in refractory high-entropy alloys

William Curtin, Francesco Maresca, Rui Feng

Energy efficiency is motivating the search for new high-temperature (high-T) metals. Some new body-centered-cubic (BCC) random multicomponent "high-entropy alloys (HEAs)" based on refractory elements (Cr-Mo-Nb-Ta-V-W-Hf-Ti-Zr) possess exceptional strengths ...

A ductility criterion for bcc high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

A current goal driving alloy development is the identification of alloy compositions for high temperature applications but with the additional requirement of sufficient ductility at ambient temperatures. Multicomponent, single-phase, polycrystalline High E ...

Theory of kink migration in dilute BCC alloys

William Curtin, Alireza Ghafarollahi

Plastic deformation in elemental BCC metals and dilute alloys is controlled by the slower of the kink pair nucleation and kink migration processes along screw dislocations. In alloys nucleation is facilitated and migration inhibited, leading to a concentra ...

Theory of twin strengthening in fcc high entropy alloys

William Curtin, Recep Ekin Kubilay

Twinning in fcc High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) has been implicated as a possible mechanism for hardening that enables enhanced ductility. Here, a theory for the twinning stress is developed analogous to recent theories for yield stress. Specifically, the stres ...

Analysis of the flexible boundary condition method

William Curtin, Ankit Gupta

The flexible boundary condition method (FBCM) is a well-established method for the efficient study of complex non-linear atomistic defects while avoiding finite-size effects. The method uses lattice Green's functions (LGFs) to effectively embed an atomisti ...

Machine learning for metallurgy II. A neural-network potential for magnesium

William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Eleanor Yi Kei Mak

Interatomic potentials are essential for studying fundamental mechanisms of deformation and failure in metals and alloys because the relevant defects (dislocations, cracks, etc.) are far above the scales accessible to first-principles studies. Existing pot ...
