Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study of Grain Boundary Migration In Nanocrystalline Pd

We present a new methodology for measuring the grain boundary mobility for curved boundaries using molecular-dynamics simulation of grain growth in a small, specifically tailored Pd nanocrystalline structure. In the model system, the boundaries move under the forces provided by their curvature and i...
