In this work, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed to systematically investigate the ion irradiation responses of Ti(Zr)HfNbTa metallic glasses (MGs) at varying primary knock-on atom (PKA) energies and temperatures. Our results show that the collision cascading behaviors in RAHEAs differs significantly from that in crystalline and conventional metallic glass counterparts. Due to atomic sluggish long-range diffusion and reduced dynamic heterogeneities, RAHEAs exhibit suppressed yet spatially uniform atomic dynamics. This leads to slower PKA energy dissipation and a longer trajectory of displacement cascades, with a smaller cascade-affected zone and more rapid structural recovery rate. These features contribute to high global microstructural stability and low ion irradiation damage. As a result, RAHEAs exhibit less degradation in mechanical performance under ion irradiation. This study provides new insights into the ion irradiation resistance mechanisms of RAHEAs, offering guidance for the development of novel radiation-resistant materials.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":238,"journal":{"name":"Acta Materialia","volume":"292 ","pages":"Article 121078"},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143872347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its development has remained relatively retarded despite the long-established concept due to the challenge of balancing efficiency and accuracy. To address this issue, the current study introduces a recurrent neural network-based constitutive model as the mesoscale surrogate for crystal plasticity, termed Polycrystalline Linearized Minimal State Cells (PolyLMSC), which comprises two parallel LMSCs to predict both the mechanical response and texture evolution simultaneously. A new texture-mechanics linkage method is proposed based on the Fourier coefficients of generalized spherical harmonic (GSH) functions, where the linearity of Fourier space promotes the PolyLMSC model to extend to different textures. To enhance generalizability across arbitrary loading conditions, arbitrary strain paths with random and diverse variations in incremental size and loading direction are adopted for data generation. During the validation at the single material point, the PolyLMSC model shows good generalization performance across different textures under arbitrary loading. Furthermore, the PolyLMSC model is evaluated through various component-scale simulation cases, illustrating reasonable accuracy at meso‑ and macroscale predictions with 1∼2 orders of magnitude improvement in computational efficiency compared to conventional crystal plasticity models. The validation results demonstrate the proposed model as a promising candidate for efficient and accurate multiscale simulations, bridging the meso‑ to macroscales.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":238,"journal":{"name":"Acta Materialia","volume":"293 ","pages":"Article 121075"},"PeriodicalIF":8.3,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143862718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we have trained a machine learning potential and performed large-scale molecular simulations to investigate the lithiation mechanisms at individual a-Si, a-Si/graphite-I, and a-Si/graphite-II interfaces. The results demonstrate that the trained potential achieves accuracy comparable to density functional theory, making it well-suited for high-precision simulations of lithiation dynamics in large-scale systems. Our findings reveal that, compared to the reference a-Si system, graphite effectively mitigates direct lithium-silicon contact, reducing interfacial reactions and promoting a diffusion-dominated lithiation process. Notably, the a-Si/graphite-I interface exhibits the fastest lithiation rate while efficiently suppressing the diffusion of silicon atoms toward the lithium source. This confinement facilitates the formation of a dense lithiated phase, significantly minimizing silicon loss and enhancing both the reversible capacity and cycling stability of the electrode.
