Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Nanoindentation and Nanotribology [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions Series A, Mathematical, Physical, and Engineering Sciences, 2005 We present results of parallel molecular dynamics simulations of nanoindentation and nanotribology experiments. The models we have developed describe both the sample and the indenter atomistically and model the effect of the cantilevers in an atomic ...

Nanotribology and Nanomechanics
Wear, 2005Abstract The recent emergence and proliferation of proximal probes, in particular scanning probe microscopies (the scanning tunneling microscope and the atomic force microscope), the surface force apparatus, and of computational techniques for simulating tip-surface interactions and interfacial properties, have led to the appearance of the new field ...

MRS Bulletin, 1993
Friction, lubrication, wear, and adhesion are all phenomena familiar from everyday experience. We experience friction when we go for a walk on ordinary ground—we do not expect to fall flat on our faces, as we might when walking on ice. Wear is particularly well known because it leads to catastrophic failure and represents one of the most costly ...

Nano Today, 2007
The tribological phenomena of adhesion, friction, and wear arise when solid objects make contact. As the size of devices shrinks to micro- and nanoscales, the surface-to-volume ratio increases and the effects of body forces (gravity and inertia) become insignificant compared with those of surface forces (van der Waals, capillary, electrostatic, and ...

Nanotribology of polymer blends
Journal of Applied Physics, 2000We investigated rheological and tribological properties of polystyrene (PS) and poly (vinyl methyl ether) blends by atomic force microscopy. Glass transition temperature measurements showed that the blends whose PS contents were 80% (PS80) and 60% (PS60) were in the glassy state and in the glass-rubber transition state at room temperature, respectively.

Nanotribology and the Stability of Nanostructures
Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 1993Atomic scale energetics, structure, and formation mechanisms of solid and liquid junctions occurring between a solid metal tip and a clean metal surface or between the tip and a liquid film of hexadecane molecules adsorbed on a solid surface, are investigated using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations.
