Recent Studies on Void Shrinkage in Metallic Materials Subjected to In Situ Heavy Ion Irradiations
The continuous formation and growth of voids induced by radiations in metallic materials may lead to significant microstructure damage and degradation of mechanical properties. In sharp contrast to the void sw...

Open AccessAn analysis of two classes of phase field models for void growth and coarsening in irradiated crystalline solids
A formal asymptotic analysis of two classes of phase field models for void growth and coarsening in irradiated solids has been performed to assess their sharp-interface kinetics. It was found that the sharp in...

Phase field modeling for grain growth in porous solids
Concurrent evolution of grain size and porosity in solids is a technically important problem involving curvature-driven motion of grain boundaries and the pore motion by surface diffusion. A phase field approa...

Image Forces on 3D Dislocation Structures in Crystals of Finite Volume
The present work aims at studying the image stress and image Peach-Koehler force fields for three-dimensional dislocation configurations in a single crystal of finite volume. It is shown that the image stress ...

Green's function for the elastic field of an edge dislocation in a finite orthotropic medium
A fundamental solution of plane elasticity in a finite domain is developed in this paper. A closed-form Green's function for the elastic field of an edge dislocation of arbitrary Burger's vector at an arbitrar...
