| Abstract Scope |
The demand for durable structural materials capable of performing at cryogenic temperatures is growing rapidly across sectors such as aerospace, medical technology, and the hydrogen economy. While interest in cryogenic metal deformation peaked in the 1960s due to space and defense initiatives, it has recently re-emerged with a renewed focus on multi-principal element alloys (MPEAs). These alloys exhibit exceptional ductility at low temperatures, prompting a need to understand their deformation mechanisms under cryogenic conditions. In this talk, I will present insights into the activation and quantification of these mechanisms down to 15 K, enabled by in-situ neutron diffraction — a powerful tool for probing bulk behavior during deformation. |
