Crystal nucleation and growth processes induced by an externally applied shear strain in a model metallic glass are studied by means of nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations, in a range of temperatures. We observe ...
Nucleation is an out-of-equilibrium process that can be strongly affected by the presence of external fields. In this paper, we report a simple extension of classical nucleation theory to systems submitted to an homogeneous ...
Nonequilibrium atomic dynamics is simulated in single-component metallic glass under the influence of shear strains with different shear rates and temperatures. Based on the simulation data and cluster analysis, such ...
We report results of nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of a one-component glassy system under the influence of a shear flow, with the aim of investigating shear-induced ordering of this system. In spite of the ...
Nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of a model amorphous system are performed with the aim of studying the structural transformations induced by external shear influence. We reveal that the shear drive has both ...
