A study of conditions for dislocation nucleation in coarser-than-atomistic scale models
We perform atomistic simulations of dislocation nucleation in defect free crystals in 2 and 3 dimensions during indentation with circular (2D) or spherical (3D) indenters. The kinematic structure of the theory of Field Dislocation Mechanics (FDM) is shown to allow the identification of a local feature of the atomistic velocity field in these simulations as indicative of dislocation nucleation. ...
متن کاملSize-Dependent Surface Energy Density of Spherical Face-Centered-Cubic Metallic Nanoparticles.
The surface energy density of nano-sized elements exhibits a significantly size-dependent behavior. Spherical nanoparticle, as an important element in nano-devices and nano-composites, has attracted many interesting studies on size effect, most of which are molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. However, the existing MD calculations yield two opposite size-dependent trends of surface energy densi...
متن کاملA new Embedded Atom Method potential for atomic-scale modeling of metal-silicon systems
A new formulation of EAM potential is developed for the description of interatomic interactions in metal-silicon systems. The potential is based on reformulation of the Embedded Atom Method (EAM) potential for metals and Stillinger – Weber (SW) potential for silicon in a compatible functional form. The potential is parameterized for Au-Si system and tested by comparing the predicted energies an...
متن کاملEffect of atomic scale plasticity on hydrogen diffusion in iron: Quantum mechanically informed and on-the-fly kinetic Monte Carlo simulations
We present an off-lattice, on-the-fly kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) model for simulating stress-assisted diffusion and trapping of hydrogen by crystalline defects in iron. Given an embedded atom (EAM) potential as input, energy barriers for diffusion are ascertained on the fly from the local environments of H atoms. To reduce computational cost, on-the-fly calculations are supplemented with precomp...
متن کاملPhase stability in the Fe–Ni system: Investigation by first-principles calculations and atomistic simulations
First-principles calculations of the energy of various crystal structures of Fe, Ni and ordered Fe–Ni compounds with different stoichiometries have been performed by the linearized augmented plane wave (LAPW) method in the generalized gradient approximation. The most stable compounds are L12–Ni3Fe, L10–FeNi, C11f–Ni2Fe and C11f–Fe2Ni. The L12–Ni3Fe compound has the largest negative formation en...
