Solute distribution and grain boundary segregation in Mg alloy
We are happy to share our latest manuscript on the impact of chemical binding and solute distribution on grain boundary segregation and texture modification in Mg-X-Zn alloys (X = RE or Ca). The article Mouhib et al., Exploring solute behavior and texture selection in magnesium alloys at the atomistic level, Acta Materialia 266 (2024) 119677 [open access].
Happy new year 2024
The group for atomistic mechanics from the LEM3 wishes all of you a very happy new year 2024! See you ASAP for exciting new projects, welcoming group members, sharing new publications, meeting at conferences and even a brand new laboratory website.
Stay tuned!
The origin of topological anisotropy in silica glass
Did you ever wonder on the origin of the atomic-scale structural anisotropy in silica glass, induced by deformation? Our article published this summer in Acta Materialia is bringing some answers: Ganisetti et al., The origin of deformation induced topological anisotropy in silica glass, Acta Materialia 257 (2023) 119108 [open access]. I am particularly happy to share this wonderful piece of work mainly performed at the Institute for Material Science and Engineering (FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany) by Dr. Sudheer Ganisetti who has been briefly member of my group last year.
To COMPLAS 2023 in Barcelone
I will be at the COMPLAS conference in Barcelone, 5-7 September 2023, alonside with Djafar IABBADEN an several colleagues from the LEM3. The COMPLAS conferences started in 1987 and since then have become established events in the field of computational plasticity and related topics.
Welcome to Abdallah
I am glad to welcome Abdallah WAZNE in my group as research engineer (ingénieur de recherche). He will work on the Segregation at Interfaces in Lightweight Alloys towards Tailored Mechanical Properties, within the framework of the ANR-DFG SILA in collaboration with RWTH Aachen in Germany.
Welcome to Djafar
I am glad to welcome Djafar IABBADEN in my group as Postdoctoral researcher. He will work on the atomistic fundamentals of plasticity at interfaces in lightweight complex alloys and transfer to continuum models, within the framework of the ANR JCJC ATOUUM.
