Abstract Energy absorption by matter is fundamental to natural and man-made processes. However, despite this ubiquity, developing materials capable of withstanding severe energy fluxes without degradation is a significant challenge in materials science and engineering. Despite recent advances in creating alloys resistant to energy fluxes, mitigating the damage caused by the absorption and transfer of mechanical energy remains a critical obstacle in both fundamental science and technological applications. This challenge is especially prominent when the mechanical energy is transferred to the material by shock loading. This study demonstrates a phenomenon in which microstructurally stabilized nanocrystalline Cu-Ta alloys can undergo reversal or nearly complete recovery of the dislocation structure after multiple shock-loading impacts, unlike any other known metallic material. The microstructure of these alloys can withstand repeated shock-wave interactions at pressures up to 12 GPa without any significant microstructural damage or deterioration, demonstrating an extraordinary capacity to be virtually immune to the detrimental effects of shock loading. |
