interpretations of this phenomenon is that the extremely small grains are not able to support dislocation pileup which provides extra stress concentration in the large grains. At this point, the strengthening mechanism changes from dislocation-dominated strain hardening to growth softening and grain rotation. Typically, the inverse Hall-Petch effect will happens at grain size ranging from 10 nm to 30 nm and makes it hard for nanocrystalline materials to achieve a high strength. To push the limit of grain size for strengthening, the hindrance of grain rotation and growth could be achieved by grain boundary stabilization. The construction of nanolaminated structure with low-angle grain boundaries is one method to obtain ultrafine grained materials with ultra-strength. Lu et al. applied a very high rate shear deformation with high strain gradients on the top surface layer of bulk Ni sample and introduced nanolaminated structures. This material exhibits an ultra-high hardness, higher than any reported ultrafine-grained nickel. The exceptional strength is resulted from the appearance of low-angle grain boundaries, which have low-energy states efficient for enhancing structure stability. Another method to stabilize grain boundaries is the addition of nonmetallic impurities. Nonmetallic impurities often aggregate at grain boundaries and have the ability to impact the strength of materials by changing the grain boundary energy. Rupert et al. conducted first-principles simulations to study the impact of the addition of common nonmetallic impurities on Σ5 (310) grain boundary energy in Cu. They claimed that the decrease of covalent radius of the impurity and the increase of electronegativity of the impurity would lead to the increase of the grain boundary energy and further strengthen the materials. For instance, boron stabilized the grain boundaries by enhancing the charge density among the adjacent Cu atoms to improve the connection between two grain boundaries.

mechanism and the effects of grain size in nanocrystalline graphene through a series of MD simulations. Previous studies observed inconsistent grain size dependence of the strength of graphene at the length scale of nm and the conclusions remained unclear. Therefore, Han et al. utilized MD simulation to observe the structural evolution of graphene with nanosized grains directly. The nanocrystalline graphene samples were generated with random shapes and distribution to simulate well-annealed polycrystalline samples. The samples were then loaded with uniaxial tensile stress, and the simulations were carried out at room temperature. By decreasing the grain size of graphene, Han et al. observed a transition from an inverse pseudo Hall-Petch behavior to pseudo Hall-Petch behavior and the critical grain size is 3.1 nm. Based on the arrangement and energetics of simulated particles, the inverse pseudo Hall-Petch behavior can be attributed to the creation of stress concentration sites due to the increase in the density of grain boundary junctions. Cracks then preferentially nucleate on these sites and the strength decreases. However, when the grain size is below the critical value, the stress concentration at the grain boundary junctions decreases because of stress cancellation between 5 and 7 defects. This cancellation helps graphene sustain the tensile load and exhibit a pseudo Hall-Petch behavior. This study explains the previous inconsistent experimental observations and provides an in-depth understanding of the grain boundary strengthening mechanism of nanocrystalline graphene, which cannot be easily obtained from either in-situ or ex-situ experiments.

performance of material. Solutes tend to aggregate at dislocations and are promising for dislocation engineering. Kimura et al. conducted atom probe tomograph and observed the aggregation of niobium atoms to the dislocations. The segregation energy was calculated to be almost the same as the grain boundary segregation energy. That's to say, the interaction between niobium atoms and dislocations hindered the recovery of dislocations and thus strengthened the materials. Introducing dislocations with heterogeneous characteristics could also be utilized for material strengthening. Lu et al. introduced ordered oxygen complexes into TiZrHfNb alloy. Unlike the traditional interstitial strengthening, the introduction of the ordered oxygen complexes enhanced the strength of the alloy without the sacrifice of ductility. The mechanism was that the ordered oxygen complexes changed the dislocation motion mode from planar slip to wavy slip and promoted double cross-slip.
1154:(IPNs), consisting of interlacing crosslinked polymer networks that are not covalently bonded to one another, can lead to enhanced strength in polymer materials. The use of an IPN approach imposes compatibility (and thus macroscale homogeneity) on otherwise immiscible blends, allowing for a blending of mechanical properties. For example, silicone-polyurethane IPNs show increased tear and flexural strength over base silicone networks, while preserving the high elastic recovery of the silicone network at high strains. Increased stiffness can also be achieved by pre-straining polymer networks and then sequentially forming a secondary network within the strained material. This takes advantage of the anisotropic strain hardening of the original network (chain alignment from stretching of the polymer chains) and provides a mechanism whereby the two networks transfer stress to one another due to the imposed strain on the pre-strained network. 1063:
austenite. The steel is then quenched to a point above the martensite start temperature and held there. This allows the formation of bainite, an austenite decomposition product. While at this temperature, more C is allowed to enrich the retained austenite. This, in turn, lowers the martensite start temperature to below room temperature. Upon final quenching a metastable austenite is retained in the predominantly ferrite matrix along with small amounts of bainite (and other forms of decomposed austenite). This combination of micro-structures has the added benefits of higher strengths and resistance to necking during forming. This offers great improvements in formability over other high-strength steels. Essentially, as the TRIP steel is being formed, it becomes much stronger. Tensile strengths of TRIP steels are in the range of 600-960 MPa.

bottom surfaces of the Ni with a solute atom (Co, Ru, or Re) embedded at the center at 300 K. Previous studies have shown that the general view of size and modulus effects cannot fully explain the solid solution strengthening caused by Re in this system due to their small values. Zhang et al. took a step further to combine the first-principle DFT calculations with MD to study the influence of stacking fault energy (SFE) on strengthening, as partial dislocations can easily form in this material structure. MD simulation results indicate that Re atoms strongly drag to edge dislocation motion and the DFT calculation reveals a dramatic increase in SFE, which is due to the interaction between host atoms and solute atoms located in the slip plane. Further, similar relations have also been found in fcc Ni embedded with Ru and Co.

effects are caused by the interaction between dislocations and precipitates. Therefore, the characteristics of dislocation play an important role on the strengthening effects. It is known that a screw dislocation in bcc metals has very complicated features, including a non-planar core and the twinning-anti-twinning asymmetry. This complicates the strengthening mechanism analysis and modeling and it cannot be easily revealed by high resolution electron microscopy. Thus, Shim et al. simulated coherent bcc Cu precipitates with diameters ranging from 1 to 4 nm embedded in the fcc Fe matrix. A screw dislocation is then introduced and driven to glide on a {112} plane by an increasing

velocity in the anti-twinning direction is mainly caused by a transition in the screw dislocation glide from the kink-pair to the cross-kink mechanism. In contrast, a screw dislocation overcomes the precipitates of 1–3.5 nm by shearing in the twinning direction. In addition, it also has been observed that the screw dislocation detachment mechanism with the larger, transformed precipitates involves annihilation-and-renucleation and Orowan looping in the twinning and anti-twinning direction, respectively. To fully characterize the involved mechanisms, it requires intensive transmission electron microscopy analysis and it is normally hard to give a comprehensive characterization.

bonding depending on atomic positions, the dedicated interatomic potential is required to enable the MD simulation to yield accurate results. Therefore, interatomic potentials need to be tailored based on bonding. The following interatomic potential models are commonly used in materials science: Born-Mayer potential, Morse potential, Lennard Jones potential, and Mie potential. Although they give very similar results for the variation of potential energy with respect to the particle position, there is a non-negligible difference in their repulsive tails. These characteristics make them better describe materials systems with specific chemical bonds, respectively.

Stiffness-confinement effects near rigid interfaces, such as those between a polymer matrix and stiffer filler materials, enhance the stiffness of composites by restricting polymer chain motion. This is especially present where fillers are chemically treated to strongly interact with polymer chains, increasing the anchoring of polymer chains to the filler interfaces and thus further restricting the motion of chains away from the interface. Stiffness-confinement effects have been characterized in model nanocomposites, and shows that composites with length scales on the order of nanometers increase the effect of the fillers on polymer stiffness dramatically.

is grain boundary strengthening with surface energy of granular interfaces providing strength improvement. The two primary types of composite strengthening, fiber reinforcement and laminar reinforcement, fall in the 1-D and 2-D classes, respectively. The anisotropy of fiber and laminar composite strength reflects these dimensionalities. The primary idea behind composite strengthening is to combine materials with opposite strengths and weaknesses to create a material which transfers load onto the stiffer material but benefits from the ductility and toughness of the softer material.
2727:
force exerted on a particle is caused by the negative gradient of the potential energy with respect to the particle position. Therefore, a standard procedure to conduct MD simulation is to divide the time into discrete time steps and solve the equations of motion over these intervals repeatedly to update the positions and energies of the particles. Direct observation of atomic arrangements and energetics of particles on the atomic scale makes it a powerful tool to study microstructural evolution and strengthening mechanisms.

hierarchical nanotwinned structures pushes the hindrance effect to the extreme, due to the construction of a complex 3D nanotwinned network. Thus, the delicate design of hierarchical nanotwinned structures is of great importance for inventing materials with super strength. For instance, Yue et al. constructed a diamond composite with hierarchically nanotwinned structure by manipulating the synthesis pressure. The obtained composite showed the higher strength than typical engineering metals and ceramics.

the length scale of the simulation to roughly a micron in size. The time steps in MD are also very small and a long simulation will only yield results at the time scale of a few nanoseconds. To further extend the scale of simulation time, it is common to apply a bias potential that changes the barrier height, therefore, accelerating the dynamics. This method is called hyperdynamics. The proper application of this method typically can extend the simulation times to microseconds.

which contains very strong but delicate glass fibers embedded in a softer plastic matrix resilient to fracture. The latter variant is found in almost all buildings as reinforced concrete with ductile, high tensile-strength steel rods embedded in brittle, high compressive-strength concrete. In both cases, the matrix and fibers have complimentary mechanical properties and the resulting composite material is therefore more practical for applications in the real world.

transformed into martensite, and the ferrite remains on cooling. The steel is then subjected to a temper cycle to allow some level of marten-site decomposition. By controlling the amount of martensite in the steel, as well as the degree of temper, the strength level can be controlled. Depending on processing and chemistry, the strength level can range from 350 to 960 MPa.

interfacial energy would increase. For larger precipitate particles, looping or bowing of the dislocations would occur and result in dislocations getting longer. Hence, at a critical radius of about 5 nm, dislocations will preferably cut across the obstacle, while for a radius of 30 nm, the dislocations will readily bow or loop to overcome the obstacle.
2663: 22: 1028:. If the grain size gets too small, it becomes more difficult to fit the dislocations in the grain and the stress required to move them is less. It was not possible to produce materials with grain sizes below 10 nm until recently, so the discovery that strength decreases below a critical grain size is still finding new applications. 214:

As both of these processes are more likely to occur when more dislocations are present, there is a correlation between dislocation density and shear strength.
