Simulating Materials Failure by Using up to one Billion Atoms and the World's Fastest Computer: Work-Hardening

We describe the second of two large-scale atomic simulation projects on materials failure performed on the 12-teraflop ASCI (Accelerated Strategic Computing Initiative) White computer at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. This investigation simulates ductile failure by using more than one b...

Zusammenfassung:We describe the second of two large-scale atomic simulation projects on materials failure performed on the 12-teraflop ASCI (Accelerated Strategic Computing Initiative) White computer at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. This investigation simulates ductile failure by using more than one billion atoms where the true complexity of the creation and interaction of hundreds of dislocations are revealed.
