TimeMan Virtual Seminars Series: "Tomographic crystallography of dislocations in metals"

The Plasticity group at UMET laboratory organizes a series of webinars in the framework of the ERC funded project TimeMan. The seminars will be hosted on zoom.

The first one is entitled  "Tomographic crystallography of dislocations in metals"

Zongqiang Feng Chongqing University, China Three dimensional quantitative characterization of dislocation structures is of  vital  importance to fully understand many  dislocation-related  dynamic processesin materials science. Our recent years’ effort has well promoted the establishment of a novel tomographic crystallography method for dislocation characterization which can simultaneously reveal the geometric, crystallographic and energetic features of dislocations. In this presentation, the recent progress in the improvement of the method will be introduced, and its applications torevealingcomplicated dislocation  structures in a quenched aluminum alloy and a deformed pure aluminumwill be presented.The obtained results with good coupling well unveil various characteristics of the dislocation structures, furtherenlighteningus  for a better knowledge of dislocation behaviorssubjected tothermal and mechanical loadings.
