Abstract

A nanocrystalline (NC) NiFe alloy is presented, in which both highly improved plasticity and strength are achieved by the dynamic-loading-induced deformation mechanisms of de-twinning (that is, reduction of twin density) and significant grain coarsening (see figure). This work highlights potential ingenious avenues to exploit the superior behavior of NC materials under extreme conditions. "Figure Presented"
