• Atomistic simulations provide an understanding of slip transmission.
• Atomistic simulations can be used to evaluate criteria for slip transmission.
• Outstanding challenges for atomistic simulation are presented.
To fully understand the plastic deformation of metallic polycrystalline materials, the physical mechanisms by which a dislocation interacts with a grain boundary must be identified. Recent atomistic simulations have focused on the discrete atomic scale motions that lead to either dislocation obstruction, dislocation absorption into the grain boundary with subsequent emission at a different site along the grain boundary, or direct dislocation transmission through the grain boundary into the opposing lattice. These atomistic simulations, coupled with foundational experiments performed to study dislocation pile-ups and slip transfer through a grain boundary, have facilitated the development and refinement of a set of criteria for predicting if dislocation transmission will occur and which slip systems will be activated in the adjacent grain by the stress concentration resulting from the dislocation pile-up. This article provides a concise review of both experimental and atomistic simulation efforts focused on the details of slip transmission at grain boundaries in metallic materials and provides a discussion of outstanding challenges for atomistic simulations to advance this field.
