Atomistic Investigation of Shock-Induced Amorphization within Micro-shear Bands in Hexagonal Close-Packed Titanium
The mechanical response of a single crystal titanium sample against (0001)α surface impact was investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. Remarkably, non-uniform plastic deformation was observed in the sam...

Deformation Behavior of Ultra-Strong and Ductile Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr Alloy with Bimodal Microstructure
An ultra-strong and ductile Mg-8.2Gd-3.8Y-1Zn-0.4Zr (wt pct) alloy was developed by using hot extrusion to modify the microstructure via forced-air cooling and an artificial aging treatment. A superior strength–d...

Open AccessRevealing extraordinary tensile plasticity in layered Ti-Al metal composite
Layered Ti-Al metal composite (LMC) fabricated by hot-pressing and hot-rolling process displays higher ductility than that of both components. In this paper, a combination of digital image correlation (DIC) and X

Influence of Hot Extrusion Temperature on the Microstructure and the Mechanical Properties of (ABOw + WO3p)/Al Hybrid Composites
The (ABOw + WO3p)/Al hybrid composite was fabricated by squeeze casting and subsequently hot extruded at temperatures that varied from 440°C to 560°C. The microstructures of extruded composites were examined by s...

Identification of multicopy suppressors of the pcnB plasmid copy number defect in Escherichia coli
Plasmids containing a ColE1 origin of replication are widely used for cloning purposes in Escherichia coli. Among the host factors that affect the copy number of ColE1 plasmids is the E. coli protein poly(A) pol...
