Numerical Modeling of Microstructure Evolution in Nanocrystalline Alloys—Grain Boundary Segregation, Solute Drag, and Mechanics

Nanocrystalline (NC) alloys hold significant promise as structural alloys due to their superior mechanical properties over the traditional coarser grained microcrystalline alloys. Often, there is an optimal range of mean grain size for most metals about which maximum material str...
