Abstract
With recent advances in computational modeling and in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) technologies, there have been increased efforts to apply these approaches to understand defect-based mechanisms dictating deformation mechanics. In situ TEM experiments and atomistic simulations each have their own unique limitations, including observable length and time scales and accessibility of information, motivating approaches that combine the two approaches. In this paper, we review recent studies that combine atomistic simulations and in situ TEM experiments to understand defect mechanisms associated with deformation of metals and alloys. In addition, we discuss ongoing developments in characterization and simulation capabilities that are expected to significantly advance the field of defect mechanics and allow greater integration between atomistic simulations and in situ TEM experiments.
