Ultra-strength materials (2010, background): “Homogeneous dislocation nucleation in a bulk perfect crystal has been observed in experiments of atomic model systems of bulb raft [88] and colloidal crystal [91–93], as well as in atomistic simulations [89,124].”
Atomistic simulations of incipient plasticity under Al(1 1 1) nanoindentation (2005, background): “…the onset of plastic deformation specifically induced by nanoindentation (Chen et al., 2003; Corcoran et al., 1997; Feichtinger et al., 2003; Gerberich et al., 1996; Gouldstone et al., 2001; Kelchner et al., 1998; Li et al., 2002; Lilleodden et al., 2003; Van Vliet et al., 2003; Zhu et al., 2004).”
Predictive modeling of nanoindentation-induced homogeneous dislocation nucleation in copper (2004, methodology): “Recent in situ experiments by Gouldstone et al. (2001) using the Bragg–Nye bubble raft as an analogue to the {1 1 1} plane of face-centered cubic (FCC) crystal clearly demonstrated that nanoindentation of a two-dimensional crystal may lead to homogeneous nucleation of dislocations within the…”
