Atomistic aspects of fracture
Any fracture process ultimately involves the rupture of atomic bonds. Processes at the atomic scale therefore critically influence the toughness and overall fracture behavior of materials. Atomistic simulationmethods including large-scalemolecular dynamics simulations with classical potentials, density functional theory calculations and advanced concurrent multiscale methods have led to new ins...
متن کاملAtomistic Simulations of Nanotube Fracture
The fracture of carbon nanotubes is studied by atomistic simulations. In these simulations, the fracture behavior is found to be almost independent of the separation energy and to depend primarily on the inflection point in the interatomic potential. The results show moderate dependence of fracture strength on chirality. The range of fracture strains compares well with experimental results, but...
متن کاملA comparison of finite element and atomistic modelling of fracture
Are the cohesive laws of interfaces sufficient for modelling fracture in polycrystals using the cohesive zone model? We examine this question by comparing a fully atomistic simulation of a silicon polycrystal to a finite element simulation with a similar overall geometry. The cohesive laws used in the finite element simulation are measured atomistically. We describe in detail how to convert the...
متن کاملAtomistic modeling of the fracture of polycrystalline diamond
A series of molecular-dynamics simulations using a many-body interatomic potential has been performed to investigate the behavior under load of several ^001& and ^011& symmetrical tilt grain boundaries ~GB’s! in diamond. Cohesive energies, the work for fracture, maximum stresses and strains, and toughness as a function of GB type are evaluated. Results indicate that special short-period GB’s po...
