Irradiation Extremes Thrust
The movie shows our molecular dynamics simulation of a collision cascade near an asymmetric Σ11 tilt grain boundary in copper over a time of 380 ps.
-
Mechanical Extremes Thrust:
High Strain Rates TeamThis movie shows the molecular dynamics simulation of shock loading and release of a Cu/Nb multilayer.
-
Mechanical Extremes Thrust: Severe Plastic Deformation Team
The movie shows our research on a Cu 10 nm nanocrystalline sample being uni-axial compressed to strain of 20% and then stress released.

Irradiation Extremes Thrust
Traditional structural materials degrade and fail under intense irradiation, but certain nanocomposites contain high volume fractions of "super sink" interfaces that allow these materials to self-heal.
