Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation has enhanced our understanding about ductile-regime
machining of brittle materials such as silicon and germanium. In particular, MD simulation …

In recent decades, nanoindentation has emerged as a useful experimental technique for
characterising the in situ properties of fibrous composite constituents. However, the elastic …

Indentation is one of the most widely used methods to determine the characteristics of
metallic materials. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are a powerful tool to investigate …

Nickel-based single crystal alloys have excellent mechanical properties due to its unique
two-phase structure and interface. Therefore, molecular dynamics methods were used to …

This paper presents novel advances in the deformation behaviour of polycrystalline and
single crystal silicon using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and validation of the same …

Using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, this paper investigates anisotropic cutting
