Surface nanocrystalline structure was generated on middle carbon steels by severe plastic deformation using the method of mechanical pulse friction treatment.
The slow α-relaxation process is investigated under constant deformation using low frequency dynamic mechanical analysis.
Based on these results, a continuum model is proposed for a MWNT whose response to mechanical deformations computed using engineering theories is the same as that of the MWNT obtained via MM simulations.
A multi-scale battery model which accounts for nonlinear transient transport processes, electrochemical reactions, and mechanical deformations is used to predict the usable energy storage capacity of the battery over a range of discharge rates.
However, to fully understand the interrelationships between the defects and the material that they inhabit, more direct methods of mechanical deformation must be used.
To further develop the graphene's application in field-effect transistors (FETs), various studies have attempted to modulate the electronic structure using mechanical deformation [2, 4].
The microstructures are modeled by a grain growth theory, and the mechanical deformation behavior is investigated using molecular dynamics simulation in nc-cobalt samples with an average grain size of 10 nm.
The ideal mechanical strengths of ZrO2(111)/Ni(111) ceramic-metal (C-M) interface are calculated through simulated tensile and shear deformations using the first principles calculations.
Berkovich nanoindentation-induced mechanical deformation mechanisms of AlN thin films have been investigated by using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM) techniques.
For instance, our previous study [23] has reported the mechanical deformation mechanism of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP) fibrils by using steered molecular dynamics (SMD) simulations.
