Molecular dynamics simulations of mechanical behavior in nanoscale ceramic–metallic multilayer composites

The mechanical behavior of nanoscale ceramic–metallic (NbC/Nb) multilayer composites with different thickness ratios is investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Based on the obtained stress–strain behavior and its dependence on temperature, strain rate, and loading path, the flow stre...
