Summary
This Research Infrastructure Improvement EPSCoR Research Fellows project provides a fellowship to an associate professor and training for a graduate student at the University of South Carolina. This work is conducted in collaboration with Dr. Nan Li at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). Through the fellowship, the PI will investigate the fundamental deformation mechanisms responsible for the exceptional strength and ductility in heterogeneous lamella-structured (HL) metals. The project will develop an experimentally validated multiscale crystal plasticity finite element (CPFE) model to exp
