High-resolution transmission electron microscopy investigations revealed different types of deformation structures in a nanostructured commercial Al–Mg alloy processed by high pressure torsion at room temperature. Microtwins and stacking faults were detected within both nanocrystalline grains and ultrafine grains. Full dislocations in the form of dipoles were observed within grains and near the grain boundaries. Two twinning mechanisms previously predicted by molecular-dynamics simulations were directly verified including the heterogeneous twins nucleated by the successive emission of Shockley partials from grain boundaries and homogeneous twins formed in the grain interiors by the dynamic overlapping of stacking faults. Hence, the formation of full dislocations, stacking faults and twins in the present aluminum alloy subjected to severe plastic deformation may be interpreted in terms of molecular-dynamics simulations based on generalized planar fault energy curves for pure metal systems.

The mechanical properties and deformation mechanism of nickel nanowire of dimension 100 Å (x-axis) × 1000 Å (y-axis) × 100 Å (z-axis) containing a single linear surface defect is studied at different temperatures using molecular dynamics simulations. The defect is created by deleting a row of atoms on the surface and is inclined at 25° to the loading axis. The tensile test is carried out at 0.01 K, 10 K, 100 K and 300 K temperature and 108 s-1strain rate. To determine the effect of temperature on the stress-strain curves, fracture and failure mechanism, a thorough investigation has taken place. Maximum strength of 21.26 GPa is observed for NW deformed at 0.01 K temperature and the strength decreased with increase in temperature. Through slip lines, the deformation relief pattern taken place by developing the extrusion areas along with intrusion over the surface defect area in all NWs deformed at respective temperatures. Further it is observed that fracture strains decrease with increase in temperature. After yielding, stacking faults associated with dislocations are generated by slip on all four {111} planes. Different type of dislocations with both intrinsic and extrinsic stacking faults are noticed. Out of all dislocation densities, Shockley partial dislocation densities has recorded a maximum value.
