The competition between dislocation slip and deformation twinning in body-centered cubic
(BCC) nanocrystals can be strongly influenced by the deformation conditions. In this study …

The molecular dynamics (MD) model of α-Al 2 O 3 nanowires in bending is established by
using LAMMPS to calculate the atomic stress and strain at different loading rates in order to …

Springback is one of the most interesting mechanical phenomena for bent metals after
stress/strain release. Most previous studies investigate the springback behaviors of metals …

The quality and undamaged size in the resonant cavity surface directly affect the operational
stability and output power of semiconductor lasers. To meet the demand for large-size and …

Metallic nanowires (NW) usually exhibit unique physical, mechanical, and chemical
