This book explores the fundamental role of grain boundaries in the
plasticity of crystalline materials, providing a multi-scale
approach to plasticity to facilitate understanding. It starts with
the atomic description of a grain boundary, moves on to the
elemental interaction processes between dislocations and grain
boundaries, and finally shows how the microscopic phenomena
influence the macroscopic behaviors and constitutive laws. Drawing
on topics from physical, chemical, and mechanical disciplines, this
work also explains properties of deformation at low and high
temperature, creep, fatigue, and rupture.
