{101¯2} twinning nucleation in magnesium assisted by alternative sweeping of partial dislocations via an intermediate precursor

Molecular dynamic simulation and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) characterization was employed to investigate the {101¯2} twinning mechanism in magnesium. A partial dislocation assisted twinning nucleation mechanism was proposed based on simulation results, in which the twin lattice was recon...
