Based on recent experimental studies, crystalline-to-amorphous phase transformation has been proposed as a mechanism to enhance the damage tolerance of Cantor alloys at cryogenic temperatures. In this study, we provide atomistic insights, via molecular dynamics simulations, into the origin of the so...
