Dislocation Nucleation on Grain Boundaries: Low Angle Twist and Asymmetric Tilt Boundaries
We investigate the mechanisms of incipient plasticity at low angle twist and asymmetric tilt boundaries in fcc metals. To observe plasticity of grain boundaries independently of the bulk plasticity, we simulate nanoindentation of bicrystals. On the low angle twist boundaries, the intrinsic grain bou...
