Abstract
We introduced a method for designing HEAs to balance strength and ductility. Matrix strength is improved by selecting an element with a VEC (valence electron concentration) lower than the average VEC of the matrix, while ductility is improved by selecting another element with a VEC higher than the average VEC for the matrix.161
