Slip asymmetry in the molecular crystal cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine

چکیده
Article history: Received 9 April 2013 In final form 24 July 2013 Available online 31 July 2013 Slip asymmetry is a common occurrence in some monatomic crystals where it is due to complex core structures or specific packing of slip planes. Here we present another mechanism, based on molecular steric hindrance, which leads to asymmetric dislocation motion in cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) molecular crystal. Dislocations move at different critical stresses when shear is applied in the positive and negative directions of the Burgers vector in the slip system that contributes most to plastic deformation. 2013 Elsevier B.V.

On Predicting the Crystal Structure of Energetic Materials from Quantum Mechanics
A quantum-mechanically-based potential energy function that describes interactions of dimers of the explosive cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) is used to predict polymorphic structures of crystalline RDX. The potential was first used in crystal structure prediction methods which generate polymorphs of RDX and provide a 0 K ordering in energy. The 13 low energy-structures generated by crystal...

A direct molecular dynamics simulation of the THz spectrum of a molecular crystal is presented. A time-dependent electric field is added to a molecular dynamics simulation of a crystal slab. The absorption spectrum is composed from the energy dissipated calculated from a series of applied pulses characterized by a carrier frequency. The spectrum of crystalline cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX...

Simultaneous effects of slip and heat transfer on peristaltic transport of an incompressible electrically conducting viscous fluid in an asymmetric channel is studied under the assumptions of long wavelength and low Reynold number .The asymmetry is produced by choosing the peristaltic wave train on the walls to have different amplitudes and phase.Exect solutions for stream function,velocity ...
متن کاملCrystallographic Orientation Influence on the Serrated Yielding Behavior of a Single-Crystal Superalloy
Since Ni-based single-crystal superalloys are anisotropic materials, their behavior in different crystal orientations is of great interest. In this study, the yielding behavior in both tension and compression for , and oriented materials at 500 °C has been investigated. The direction showed a serrated yielding behavior, a great tension/compression asymmetry in yield strength and visible deforma...
متن کاملEffects of Slip and Heat Transfer on MHD Peristaltic Flow in An Inclined Asymmetric Channel
Peristaltic transport of an incompressible electrically conducting viscous fluid in an inclined planar asymmetric channel is studied. The asymmetry is produced by choosing the peristaltic wave train on the walls to have different amplitude and phase. The closed form solutions of momentum and energy equation in presence of viscous dissipation term are obtained for long wave length and low Reynol...
