The Elastic Modulus and Fracture of Boron Carbide

Elastic Properties and Fracture Analysis of Perfect and Boron-doped C2N-h2D Using Molecular Dynamics Simulation

   This paper explores the mechanical properties and fracture analysis of C2N-h2D single-layer sheets using classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Simulations are carried out based on the Tersoff potential energy function within Nose-Hoover thermostat algorithm at the constant room temperature in a canonical ensemble. The influences of boron (B) doping on the mechanical properties, ...

Shock-wave strength properties of boron carbide and silicon carbide

Synthesis and characterization of boron carbide nanoparticles

Boron carbide nanoparticles were made via a reaction of boron, obtained from thermal decomposition of magnesium diboride, with multiwall carbon nanotubes at 1150 ◦C for 3 h in vacuum. The size of the nanoparticles is smaller than 100 nm. The bamboo structure of the multiwall carbon nanotubes is the key to the successful synthesis of such nanoparticles. Good crystallinity was demonstrated by sca...

Compression and Associated Properties of Boron Carbide

Our present work presents a direct association of the observed loss of shear strength in boron carbide under plane shock wave compression to amorphization in boron carbide under triaxial stress compression. This evidence is obtained from in-situ measurement of Raman, and infrared vibrational spectra of boron carbide confined in a Diamond Anvil Cell (DAC) under hydrostatic and non-hydrostatic pr...
