Recent molecular dynamics simulation results have increased conceptual understanding of the grazing and the ploughing friction at elevated temperatures, particularly near the substrate’s melting point. In this commentary we address a major constraint concerning its experimental verification.

The Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin films is an important property. This paper focused to investigate the Youngs Modulus of Multilayered Ni/Cu Multilayered nanoThin Films under different condition by Molecular Dynamics Simulation. The NVT ensemble and COMPASS potential function were employed in the simulation. The multilayered nanothin film contained the Ni and Cu thin films in sequence. From simulation results, it is found that the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film is different at different lattice orientations, temperatures and strain rate. After experiments, it can be found that the Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film in the plane (100) is highest. As thickness of the thin film and system temperature rises, Youngs modulus of multilayered nanothin film is reduced instead. And, the strain rate increases, the Youngs modulus of Cu/Ni multilayered nanothin film will also increase.

This method of parallel computing into nanoindentation molecular dynamics simulation (MDS), the author uses a nine-node parallel computer and takes the single crystal aluminum as the experimental example, to implement the large-scale process simulation of nanoindentation. Compared the simulation results with experimental results is to verify the reliability of the simulation. The method improves the computational efficiency and shortens the simulation time and the expansion of scale simulation can significantly reduce the impact of boundary conditions, effectively improve the accuracy of the molecular dynamics simulation of nanoindentation.

We have investigated the decomposition of C 60 molecules with low and high coverages on Si(100)(2×1) surface at elevated temperatures. We also investigated the decomposition of an isolated C 60 molecule. We employed molecular-dynamics simulation using a model potential. It has been found that C 60 decomposes on Si(100) surface after 1000 K in the case of low coverage (0.11), however in high coverage case (0.67), C 60 molecules decompose after 900 K. On the other hand, isolated C 60 molecule decomposes after 7500 K, interestingly it shows a phase change from 3D to 2D at higher temperatures.

Grain growth in nanocrystalline Ni has been simulated by molecular dynamics. The simulations show the creation of a high density of twin boundaries during the growth as well as the formation of vacancies consistent with recent experimental observations. The growth follows parabolic kinetics with the diameter increasing with the square root of time consistent with behavior of conventional scale metals but in disagreement with prior simulation results.
