Dual-gradient structure leads to optimized combination of high fracture resistance and strength-ductility synergy with minimized final catastrophic failure
Nature-inspired gradients can be implemented in metallic materials to achieve a synergy of strength and ductility. However, due to the small (often microscale) size of the gradient structured samples, their fracture properties have remained relatively unexplored. By fabricating centimeter-sized grad...
