Micro Abstract:
In our work, we focused on the understanding of the tensile deformation behaviour of a aluminium single- and polycrystal by using molecular dynamics simulations. We considered a fully 3D atomistic model with the embedded-atom method potential for aluminium. A symmetric tilt low energy grain boundary structure was generated and used as an initiation of fracture. Finally, we performed tensile tests investigated the results.
