Slip transfer at grain-boundaries in metals

  • Interactions dislocation - grain boundary in metals
  • Influence of the absorption of dislocions on grain boundary properties
  • Morphological aspect of slip transmission: does the curvateur of dislocation and grain boundary matter?

Slip transfer in superalloy

  • Slip transmission in monocrystalline superalloy: an experimentally informed numerical approach
  • Reconstruction of gamma/gamma' structure from experimental data.
  • Critical mechanism revealed by experimentally informed dislocation-interface interactions

Plasticity in magnesium alloys

  • Deformation of Mg matric containing Mg17Al12 intermetallic precipitates

Plasticity of complexe phases

  • Dislocation properties and behavior in Laves phases (C14, C15, C36).

Deformation behavior of nano-structures

  • Compression of nano-porous gold sub-micrometric pillars
  • Deformation of silicon nano-pillars and nano-wires

Atomistic - continuum bridging

  • Slip transfer at interfaces
  • Irradiation induced strain

Irradiation induced damage & strain

  • How instrinsic strain influence irradiation induced damage?
  • How to quantify the strain induced by irradiation damage?
  • Concept of eigenstrain to model the irradiation induced strain.

Anisotropic silica glasses

  • Origin of the structural anisotropy in silica glass
  • Influence of the structural anisotropy on the mechanical response of silica glass

Plasticity in Silicon

  • Transformation of dislocation core
  • Onset of plasticity in nanostructures
  • Plasticity initiated at interface

Atomic to continuum aspects of fracture in metals

  • Fracture in atomistic sample is strongly dependant on the boundary conditions. A prescribed-generalized plane strain approach is shown to
  • Stresses profiles at crack tip are strongly discontinuous and hard to capture with continuum models. Atomistic simulations help bridging discret and continuum aspects.
