Funded Activity Summary

Simulation and Modelling of Interactions between Dislocations and Precipitates in High Strength Light Alloys. Most light alloys are strengthened by highly dispersed nanoscale precipitates. The mechanical behaviour of these alloys is determined by the intimate coupling between precipitate microstructure (size, shape and spatial distribution) and dislocation activities (by-pass, shearing and adsorption at interfaces). By integrating state-of-the-art experimental characterization and computer simulation techniques, this project aims to reveal detailed and accurate deformation mechanisms in these alloys. The knowledge gained and models developed are expected to provide guidelines to the optimization of existing alloys and design of new alloys, which is expected to create substantial wealth for Australia.
