142 ] In case of the precipitates possessing a large size or an incoherent relationship with the matrix, dislocations will choose to bypass them, which is the so‐called Orowan bypass mechanism. [
143 ] In theory, the contribution to strengthening from cutting (Δ τ c ) and Orwan (Δ τ O ) mechanisms can be expressed as, respectively [

where F is the force implemented by obstacles, b the Burgers vector, 2 λ the average spacing between the precipitates, k c the material constant, G the shear modulus, r the radius of precipitates, and f V is the volume fraction of precipitates. At present, in the FCC HEAs/MEAs, the coherent precipitates mainly include the M 23 C 6 carbide, L1 2 phase with Ni 3 Al‐type ordered FCC structure, and D0 22 structured γ″ phase, while B 2 with NiAl‐type ordered BCC structure and some hard σ and μ intermetallic compounds are widely used as incoherent precipitates.…”
