A Multiple Site Type Nucleation Model and Its Application to the Probabilistic Strength of Pd Nanowires
Pristine specimens yield plastically under high loads by nucleating dislocations. Since dislocation nucleation is a thermally activated process, the so-called nucleation-controlled plasticity is probabilistic rather than deterministic, and the distribution of the yield strengths depends on the activ...
