Crystal Plasticity (Volume II)

<p>With the second volume we continue our mission to providing theoretical and experimental research that contribute new insights and practical findings in the field of crystal plasticity-related topics.</p><p>Once again a completely new set of 26 original works (including 22 research articles 3 communications and 1 review) has been collected. As in the case of the first volume here a full spectrum of topics belonging to the field of crystal plasticity is represented including both numerical simulations and experimental works.</p><p>By taking into account the investigated materials the papers can be assigned to the following thematic groups:</p><ul><li>Steels and iron-based alloys;</li><li>Non-ferrous alloys with fcc- (Ni- and Cu-based) or hcp crystal structure (Mg- and Ti-based). Other examples include Zirconium Bi-Sn alloy or polycarbonate resins;</li><li>Multicomponent and high-entropy alloys;</li><li>General theoretical studies on crystal plasticity.</li></ul><p>Specifically the reprint should be interesting for students of material science and engineering Ph.D. candidates and researchers dealing with various theoretical and practical aspects of plastic deformation in crystalline materials.</p>
