Atomistic simulation of mechanical behaviours of nanocrystalline AI alloys with grain boundary segregation

Bulk nanocrystalline (NC) metals and alloys demonstrating very high ultimate strength compared to conventional coarse-grained materials have a great potential for structural applications. However, their usage is limited due to low ductility and premature intergranular fracture at ambient conditions....
