ABSTRACTThe Embedded Atom Method (EAM) is combined with Monte Carlo simulation techniques to determine the equilibrium segregation at internal defects and surfaces. This approach has been applied in the Ni-Cu alloy system to the calculation of the surface composition profiles and the segregation at an edge dislocation. The surface composition profile of these alloys as a function of distance from the surface is found to vary non-monotonically with the top atomic layer strongly enriched in Cu and the near surface atomic layers enriched in Ni. The compositional variation in the core region of an edge dislocation shows enrichment of Ni in the compressed regions of the partial dislocation core and Cu enrichment in the expanded regions. In addition, the composition changes abruptly at the slip plane of the dislocation.

Dislocation core structures in Au and Cu crystals are investigated by means of quasicontinuum simulations combined with the embedded atom method potentials. A dislocation pair in a graphene sheet, which is observed by Warner et al. experimentally, is also analyzed in the present work. The strain fields around these dislocations in Au, Cu, and graphene crystals are calculated by analyzing the coordinates of discrete atoms, which is a strain tensor calculation method proposed by Zimmerman et al., and compared with theoretical predictions based on Foreman dislocation model. It is shown that the strain fields given by Zimmerman theory are completely suitable for describing the dislocation core structures of Au, Cu and graphene crystals. However, compared with the results of Au and Cu, the Zimmerman strain field in the vicinity of graphene dislocation core is a little less accurate, possibly due to the effect of lattice symmetry of graphene, which needs to be clarified in the future study.

A new reliable embedded atom method potential for hydrogen in body-centered-cubic (bcc) iron is developed by fitting not only to the properties of hydrogen in a perfect bcc iron lattice but also to the properties of hydrogen binding to vacancies. The validity of the potential is examined by calculating the properties of hydrogen trap binding to surfaces and dislocations that are in good accordance with the experiments. A brief application of the potential by molecular dynamic simulation reveals that hydrogen accumulated ahead of the crack tip induces serious hydrogen embrittlement.

ABSTRACTAn embedded-atom-method (EAM) interatomic potential [1] for bcc-iron is derived. It is fitted exactly to the lattice parameter, elastic constants, an approximation to the unrelaxed vacancy formation energy, and Rose's expression for the cohesive energy [2]. Formation energies and relaxation volumes of point defects are calculated. We find that the relative energies of the defect configurations depend on the functional fitting details of the potential considered, mainly its range: the experimental interstitial configuration of lowest energy can be reproduced by changing this parameter. This result is confirmed by calculating the same defect energies using other EAM potentials, based on the ones developed by Harrison et al. [3].

The defects in crystalline materials significantly affect the fracture behaviors. In this paper molecular dynamics (MD) model using a potential of embedded atom method (EAM) has been developed to investigate the effect of the major crystalline defects, stacking fault and edge dislocation, on the crack propagation in Fe crystal. Six cases with different locations of stacking fault and edge dislocation have been studied. The strain distribution in lattice aggregate was heterogeneous. The dislocations were observed slipping along directions [100] and [-100] on the plane (100). Simulation results showed that the location of the stacking fault and edge dislocation significantly influenced the crack propagation speed.

Abstract Motion of edge dislocation in copper crystals is investigated by means of molecular dynamics simulation. The embedded atom method potential was used in the simulation. Configuration and motion of dislocations are graphically demonstrated in 3-dimentional model. Change of mean potential energy during the dislocation motion is also investigated.
