Effect of Co Distribution on Plastic Deformation of Nanocrystalline Al-10.2 at.% Co Alloy

Figure 3

Common neighbor analysis of the structures for the pure Al and its alloys in the x-y-plane at 20% shear deformation. The regions with the fcc, hexagonal close packed (hcp), body-centered cubic (bcc), and other (undetermined) areas are colored in green, red, blue, and grey, respectively. The left, middle, and right columns show the results for the pure Al, Al-Co solid solution, and Al-Co alloy with the GB segregations, respectively. For each row, the deformation conditions are shown on the left of the structures. Voids are colored in black.
