PPT Slide
- There is a definite correlation between sliding and grain
boundary energy in Aluminum STGB.
- Higher disorder boundaries, which have higher grain
boundary energy exhibit more sliding.
- There is an increase in grain boundary energy in Al
bicrystals with the presence of magnesium. However, this
increase is dependant on the position of Mg atom.
- Presence of Mg at grain boundary tends to increase
sliding in some of the grain boundaries studied in this
