Grain boundary engineering (GBE) is a thermomechanical processing strategy to enhance the physical and mechanical properties of polycrystalline metals by purposely incorporating special types of grain boundaries—such as twin boundaries (TB)—in the microstructure. Because of the multiple strain-annea...
