Nanoindentation of Graphene-Reinforced Silica Aerogel: A Molecular Dynamics Study

In the present work, we performed nanoindentation tests using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on graphene, native silica aerogels, and single- and multi-layered graphene-reinforced silica aerogel nanocomposites. This work mainly focused on the two aspects of nanoindentation simulations: first, t...
