The dynamic process and internal mechanism of metal materials under shock loading have always been focused on shock physics fields, which are of great importance in both national basic engineering and development of cutting-edge weapons. Recent research progress of mechanical behavior and mechanics ...

As a rapidly developing technology in the past two decades, additive manufacturing has been widely used in industries due to its high-efficiently in manufacture, particularly for the components with complex geometry. Since these components usually subjected to high-speed impact in application, the i...

As an important ceramic and semiconductor material, silicon carbide has important engineering and scientific value in application fields such as national defense, military, aerospace, and high-pressure material science. This paper summarized the physical and mechanical behaviors, and characteristics...

Deformation and damage of metallic materials under shock loading depend on microstructure and loading characteristics. The effects of microstructures such as grain size, texture, grain boundary, phase boundary and element segregation bands on deformation and damage of metallic materials are reviewed...

The ductility/toughness of the high strength materials is usually inadequate, while high strength metals and alloys with good ductility/toughness can be obtained by designing the heterogeneous structures. Thus, the quasi-static and dynamic behaviors of the metals and alloys with heterogeneous struct...

Temperature rise is an important feature of adiabatic shear phenomenon for many materials. Understanding the role of temperature rise in adiabatic shear is of great significance, because it helps us to get insight into the initiation and evolution mechanism of adiabatic shear band（ASB） and to predic...

Experiments and molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to understand the dynamic deformation behavior, microstructure evolution characteristics and mechanism of near equiatomic NiTi alloy at high pressures and high strain rates. In the experiments, the dynamic deformation characteristics of...

Twin deformation is an important deformation mechanism of hexagonal close-packed (HCP) magnesium, and has a significant influence on the plastic hardening, failure and texture evolution of materials. There are many factors affecting twin deformation: orientation texture, grain size, strain rate, tem...

Martensitic transformation is a diffusionless, displacive and first-order phase transformation, which produces complex microstructures such as needle-like structure and surface tilting. Due to these microstructures having significantly influence on the macroscopic physical and mechanical properties,...

$\alpha$↔$\varepsilon$ transformation of iron is a prototype of high-pressure phase transition in metals. With the progress of detecting technology, mechanism and dynamics of the phase transition have being investigated in depth. Laser-driven in situ X-ray observation combined with non-equilibrium...
