1. Ductile and Brittle Failure in Metals with Molecular Dynamics

   20 Feb 2019 | | Contributor(s):: Sam Reeve, Alejandro Strachan

   In this computational lab you will perform online molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of nanoscale cracks under uniaxial tension through nanoHUB. Simulations with varying temperature and crystal structure will provide information to: Distinguish the atomistic mechanisms of ductile and...

2. Fracture Behavior (with Cheese!)

   21 Jun 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Jessica Anne Krogstad

   This presentation introduces fracture behavior of materials with historical context.  Several common fracture mechanisms are introduced in the context of fracture surfaces.   We also provide examples of common testing configurations relevant to the companion lab...

3. Understanding Fracture Behavior in Materials Using Cheese

   19 Jun 2018 | | Contributor(s):: Jessica Anne Krogstad, Nicole E Johnson-Glauch, Kaitlin Tyler, Rachael Mansbach, Andrew Ferguson

   This is a resource from the Girls Learning About Materials (GLAM) outreach camp run at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The learning objectives for this activity are: Students will compare and contrast different types of fracture behavior (ductile/brittle). Students...

5. Dynamic Crack Growth under Periodic Excitation Simulator

   02 Aug 2017 | | Contributor(s):: Rachel Katherine Kohler, Nicolò Grilli, Marisol Koslowski

   Simulate 2D crack growth due to sinusoidal loading.

6. Exploring Materials Properties with Nanomaterial Mechanics Explorer Structure Files

   24 Mar 2016 | | Contributor(s):: Tanya Faltens

   This document describes how to generate and download simulation output files from the Nanomaterial Mechanics Explorer on nanoHUB and view them locally using OVITO. This can be particularly useful for more advanced manipulations of the trajectory files, and for sharing files with others, such...
