The interaction stresses (pressure and shear stress) for (001) surface between a half-space consisting of a uniform material and a half-space with a spatially periodic material distribution have been derived based on the Lennard-Jones potential. The periodically distributed material property function is expanded as a complex Fourier series. The interaction pressures consist of non-fluctuation terms and fluctuation terms, while the shear stresses have only fluctuation terms. The interaction stresses for a distribution of two materials were then calculated as a typical example of a periodic material distribution. The basic characteristics of the interaction stresses are clarified.

The interaction stresses acting between a half-space consisting of a uniform material and a half-space with a one-dimensional material distribution in the in-plane direction have been derived. Two patterns of the material distribution are considered: a periodic distribution of materials (Pattern 1) and a distribution of two materials with a single interface (Pattern 2). The interaction stresses for Pattern 1 were derived using a Fourier series, while the interaction stresses for Pattern 2 were derived as elementary functions. The basic characteristics of these interaction stresses were clarified.

AbstractIn seeking to understand at a microscopic level the response of dislocations to stress we have undertaken to study as completely as possible the simplest case: a single dislocation in a two dimensional crystal. The intention is that results from this study will be used as input parameters in larger length scale simulations involving many defects. We present atomistic simulations of defect motion in a two-dimensional material consisting of atoms interacting through a modified Lennard-Jones potential. We focus on the regime where the shear stress is smaller than its critical value, where there is a finite energy barrier for the dislocation to hop one lattice spacing. In this regime motion of the dislocation will occur as single hops through thermal activation over the barrier. Accurate knowledge of the barrier height is crucial for obtaining the rates of such processes. We have calculated the energy barrier as a function of two components of the stress tensor in a small system, and have obtained good fits to a functional form with only a few adjustable parameters.

We perform extensive molecular dynamics simulations to study the mass size distribution of a two-dimensional fragmentation process. Our model consists of a large number of particles interacting through the Lennard–Jones potential. The fragmentation is induced by suddenly imposing a radial component on the particles' velocities, in order to mimic an explosion phenomenon. We then investigate the effect of the input energy on the resulting mass distribution of fragments.
