Project description
Metallic interfaces, such as grain boundaries, phase boundaries and metallization layers, play a dominant role in bulk materials, functional materials and metallic microdevices in defining their strength, reliability and lifetime properties. Nevertheless, the current modelling of metal interfaces is still rather rudimentary, being at best limited to standard anisotropy boundaries and, even more exceptionally, to cohesive zones. The latter models describe debonding…
