Mechanical Aspects of High Entropy Alloys: Fundamentals, Modeling, and Properties is structured by the sub-category of mechanical behavior, covering almost all key themes in this area, including strength, ductility, creep, fracture, fatigue, small-scale mechanical behavior, strengthening mechanisms, deformation mechanisms, and serrated plastic flow. For each individual topic, the focus is geared towards the distinctive characteristics of high-entropy alloys (HEA).

This book is a valuable resource to advanced students and researchers in need of an entry point to the field of HEAs, and experienced academic and industrial researchers who wish to either deepen their knowledge or gain inspiration during the process of their HEA research.

This collection commemorates the occasion of the honorary symposium that celebrated the 75th birthday and lifelong contributions of Professor K.L. Murty. The topics cover the present status and recent advances in research areas in which he made seminal contributions. The volume includes articles on a variety of topics such as high-temperature deformation behaviors of materials (elevated temperature creep, tensile, fatigue, superplasticity) and their micromechanistic interpretation, understanding mechanical behavior of HCP metals/alloys using crystallographic texture, radiation effects on deformation and creep of materials, mechanical behavior of nanostructured materials, fracture and fracture mechanisms, development and application of small-volume mechanical testing techniques, and general structure-property correlations.
