Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Nanopolycrystals
http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-10-6855-3_12-1 Abstract: Nanopolycrystals are polycrystalline metals with an average grain size below 100 nm and exhibit extraordinary strength values. In contrast to the coarse-grained polycrystals, the confinement by grain boundaries of the plastic deformation in the grains approaches limits, where the conventional theories break down. In the grain size regime 10–20 nm, molecular dynamics simulations play a […]
