Nanoscale Tensile Testing with Molecular Dynamics
Teaching Materials | 21 Feb 2019 | Contributor(s):: Sam Reeve, Alejandro Strachan
In this computational lab you will perform online molecular dynamics (MD) simulations through nanoHUB of single-crystal copper nanowires under uniaxial tension of varying orientations and analyze the results in order to: Observe how slip planes in single-crystal nanowires are formed and...

Exploring Materials Properties with Nanomaterial Mechanics Explorer Structure Files
Teaching Materials | 24 Mar 2016 | Contributor(s):: Tanya Faltens
This document describes how to generate and download simulation output files from the Nanomaterial Mechanics Explorer on nanoHUB and view them locally using OVITO. This can be particularly useful for more advanced manipulations of the trajectory files, and for sharing files with others, such...
