Plastic Deformation at the Nanoscale
11 Sep 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Marisol Koslowski
To model the deformation of metallic materials at micron and submicron scales a continuum theory of dislocations is derived. We will introduce the MicroMechanics Simulation Tool and the NanoPlasticity Lab. Both tools are dislocation mechanics simulations for the prediction of plastic deformation...
