Simulation of mechanical deformation via nonequilibrium molecular dynamics.

摘要

We are developing two- and three-dimensional pair-force and embedded-atom simulations of mechanical deformation processes --- indentation, machining, and inelastic ballistic-impact collisions --- related to current nanometer machining practice. Here we describe these problems and their implementation using both mainframe and parallel-processor computers. 11 refs., 3 figs. (ERA citation 15:001067)
